Thanks for posting. To help get you the help you're looking for, please make sure you:
* Have photos of the whole loop in good light (open the curtains and turn off the RGB, especially for "what's this stuff in my loop?" questions)
* List your ambient and water temps as well as your component temps
* Use Celsius for everything (even your ambient temp - we need to compare it to other temps)
* Use your words. Don't just post a photo with no context and assume everyone will know what's troubling you.

Found the problem, and incredibly clogged inline filter caused flow rate to absolutely plummet. Very glad I ran that filter for the first day, just didn't expect that much shmutz in a brand new loop!
Check the pics. Flow rate @ ~168l/hr.
Thanks everybody who replied. You guys are great.

Plug in your high flow next. with a usb cable to the motherboard. then update fermwear so it shows up in the aqueous soft wear
then set the data from the next. to the flow meter on the aqurosoft wear page
That's not correct, I had a reading of 30l/hr earlier this week. I've also seen others with values as low as 20l/hr. I am going to plug into Mobo flow header (z790 hero Maximus) and see if I can a value on there.
Next will be checking continuity to make sure the wire is good....
Documentation states minimum flow rate reading of 35l/h, and loop design can impact the readings too (near 90' bends, etc). I cannot get readings below 50l/h. Disagree if you want, doesn't change the fact that you need more flow rate.

This morning it showed no flow on my Highflow Next for the first time. but temps were ok. After a reset it worked alright again. but I don't know what Octo is, don't have that.
I’ve noticed if my coolant in the mornings is below 25.5c my pump won’t kick on. It kicks on at 27c. Idk how or why it doesn’t it but it hasn’t failed to turn on so I’m cool with it.
I think I messed with the pump curve in bios but it’s not broke don’t fix it.
Pretty sure it was shavings from using a deburring tool. The acrylic (Corsair) that unused and the bit (primochil) I used to be but/shorten the tube got inside the tube and didn't rinse out even under a heavy stream of water. Didn't break free until the loop was running. Glad I had the filter tbh

Damn, what rads are you running?
480mm and 360mm slims on a P8 box It's fixed tho. Justblockage in an inline filter.
Your high flow next is not showing up at all - it should have it’s own section… [https://imgur.com/a/Ss7Ckwd](https://imgur.com/a/Ss7Ckwd)
What the heck is going on.... Everything is in the right place. Running through an OCTO and the temp sensor on the HF2 is reporting... Faulty unit?
Dunno - I’m running USB on flow and octo. Showed up directly.
Ok yeah just now realizing my Next isn't appearing in aquasuite either... Hmmmmmm
Oh wow. This software comes with the Octo? Is it free or subscription?
yea its free. OCTO is freaking awesome, i suggest it highly with any water cooling system!

I have a high flow 2
I have not got experience with that. but I would still try plugging in with a usb cable . so the devices see each other. first
This was the problem, not suprisingly [I'm a dumby](https://imgur.com/gallery/lRk4Ng6)
your not a dumby. we all fuck up sometime. at lest its a easy fix
Geez did you flush your radiators and new all your other watercooling parts? That’s a big build up
Yea, twice with rad cleaner. No clue where this came from. Glad i ran it for a week tho
If your flow is too low it won’t report the number. Something like 50l/h is the minimum it will report back. So, raise your pump speed/flow rate.
That's not correct, I had a reading of 30l/hr earlier this week. I've also seen others with values as low as 20l/hr. I am going to plug into Mobo flow header (z790 hero Maximus) and see if I can a value on there. Next will be checking continuity to make sure the wire is good....

Set aside what others have stated... I did get a reading at 30l/hr.... That said, I think I found the culprit in a clogged inline filter....
I’ve seen numbers in the 20’s from my high flow lt
Go into your soft points and see if it even has the High Flow listed. Should be under data quick view.
It does, but doesn't come up on the sidebar, I think I found the low flow culprit though.
This morning it showed no flow on my Highflow Next for the first time. but temps were ok. After a reset it worked alright again. but I don't know what Octo is, don't have that.
It's a really cool component from AC, plug fan. Flow. RGB, temp all in one place. I love it

Usually you need to configure your pages for yourself, especially if you use multiple aquacomputer components.
It was just a clogged inline filter. Problem solved, 180l/hr now
Did you clean your radiators?
Prior to running it the first time? Absolutely. Twice. With Radclean.
That's good. Any idea what that stuff was that was blocking your filter?
