Aurora R12, Corsair H80i v2, boot error

Question

I got a Corsair H80i v2 and got it working with my Alienware Aurora R12. It took a bit of browsing this site to help fix the errors. I installed another ssd and now its tripping the cpu fan error. I tried clearing the cmos and swapped between the cpu_fan and pump_fan pins but the error persists. And my temps are now exceeding 70c because of this. Any ideas on how to fix this?

If you went from an Air cooled solution to an AIO did you happen to install the R12 VRM heat sink, if not the board seems to detect this and throws an error ( even if didn't you'd eventually fry the VRM and yes your temps would not be cool like you think they would )
