    I Love you man! still the sounds problems with the pump, but cs is playable now
  2. The_Atomic
    what is the reason for removing this start up option? I did have it enabled.
  3. The_Atomic
    Im trying stress tests now, In the BIOS the pump can only run at 100% cant change it to performance/quiet

    Hey Guys, just over a month ago I built my self a new PC with the i7 8700k cpu cooled by a NZXT Kraken x62. Up until now it has been working fine and have been playing lots of games (gpu intensive) e.g. GTA, PUBG and Battlefield 1. Yesterday I went onto CSGO for the first time since this new build. Started off with fps around 400-500 which is as expected but after about 15 mins of playing the FPS went down hill fast! topping at 200 and spiking down to 60 at points. (jumping between fps' very quickly) making it unplayable. When playing CS (CPU intensive game) the AIO CPU cooler seems to be making screeching and crackling sound. This is at 55*c which isnt high at all. This is happening even when on the menu after just opening the game. With a short amount of research I think the crackling sound is small air bubbles in the cooler but the screeching sound can not be right. The fans RPMs are increasing when the CPU temps are increasing and the AIO pump is meant to run at 100% all the time, but still the Cooler's noise is far from right. Is it my CPU or my cooler which isnt right? Also not overclocked! Two main questions: Why is the AIO cooler making these crazy sounds only on CSGO and not when under stress? How am I getting FPS drops on a CPU intensive game on the best CPU on the market?!?!

    at the moment its plugged into the AIO pump header, will the cpu fan header be better?
  6. The_Atomic
    The Rad is at the top. so the air should go away from the pump?

    Here is my build, anything you'd improve/ not go with? +Corsair commander Pro https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/zCCywV (Its for gaming)

    Looking for a PSU to go with my build but getting rather stuck. On PC part picker there are all of these options (ATX/ BTX/ ATX12/ EPS12V/ SFX12V) and ive no clue which ones are newer and or better to use for a high end system. Here is my build so far: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/rN7Lhq Im planning on going for a 850w psu to be safe and should allow for upgrade in the future if needed? I think?
  10. The_Atomic
    ahh perfect even better.... forgot the AIO pump needed a header thanks alot
  11. The_Atomic
    Ok, so.... 4 fans into the commander pro. 2 fans into the CPU header with a 4pin splitter 6 RGB cables into the RGB hub and we are good to go?
  12. The_Atomic
    Thanks, but how would I fit 6 fans onto the commander Pro?
  13. The_Atomic
    Hey Guys, I'm going for a build which has 6 Corsair LL140 fans (2 on AIO Radiator +4 Case Fans) I've been looking at the Corsair Commander pro as it says it can adjust all RGBs and Fan speeds -Individually!!- (fan speed important). On the commander pro it say its says it can control up to 6 fans, but.... as the fans each have 2x 4 pin cables (1 for fan Control + 1 for rgbs) I dont know how this will fit into the 6x 4 pins on the commander pro? I'm guessing that the RGB LED Fan hub will allow for the control of the RGBs?? Do I even need the commander Pro or will a fan controller (Dark base pro 900 fan controller) work just fine? Another side question, the fans on the CPU AIO cooler... do those fans have to be put into the CPU fan header on the MOBO or can it go into a fan controller and have a custom curve changing with cpu temps. Thanks in advance

    A few questions about the corsair commander pro: 1. Are you able to make custom fan curves for individual fans? 2. Do the fans have to be corsair (non RBG)? 3. Do the fans have to be the corsair RGB fans to control the RGBs? Thanks in advance
  15. The_Atomic
    ahh, thanks a lot
