*Repost from OG Sponsorship thread since this seemed more a more appropriate place. Won't post it again though.* So I don’t know if this has been discussed already, sorry if it has, but my experience with Corsair has been absolutely abysmal. So much so that I went from being a semi tech literate guy looking to build his first PC a few years agi, decided I wanted some cohesive RGB in my build, so after a lot of research thought Corsair was a good one to go with. I went with a bunch of their stuff, Fans, AIO, Mouse, keyboard, Ram and at first loved it. But man does ICUE ruin the experience to no freaking end. Physical quality of products I cannot fault apart from my LLRGB fans all having some dead LED’s so none of them can do a full solid colour any more… but more so than that the experience with iCue has by far been the most infuriating thing about my PC experience. Not only is it a resource hog for background tasks but having it be the controller for mouse or keyboard settings is just a no go because as soon as the software conks out or crashes, which it will, you lose all bindings or sensitivity settings. Because of this I’ve just given up on my G macro keys being a thing on my keyboard. I’ve replaced my Corsair mouse with a steel series one so the sensitivity wouldn’t keep randomly changing all the time. I’ve taken my Aio and fans off of software control from iCue and instead control then from all direct from my mobo because I found that when iCue wasn’t working properly my temperatures suffered. My Ram I don’t have a workaround for but that thankfully doesn’t seem to suffer performance wise. And all my RGB is just set to off because it doesn’t stay consistent otherwise. Random components will just crash and go to rainbow vomit. Anyway I’m not sure whether this is a totally unique thing to me. I promise I’m not an idiot and have spent plenty of hours trolling forums trying to find fixes but to no avail. I’m just giving up on Corsair and moving to a completely blacked out stripped down build next time around. Would be good if this was a common issue in the community though for you guys to put some fire under their butts to sort out their buggy software. Which is absolutely a sentiment that I know is shared in the community. Whether my problems are unique or not.

I have done. No difference. I should’ve said as well. If i decide to completely forget trying to overclock it (to its stock speed) I can boot into windows but only by leaving it at 2133mhz...

I would play so much Mario kart on this bad boy ?

Each individuals favourite moment or part of being an LMG employee? Despite how long or short it may've been so far. And/or, What could you see your selves looking for in future potential employees? If any? Any suggestions for the dreamers among us? Haha

I've got a full build budgeted and scheduled for the end of 2015, after some more saving, if I got this I could see my rig built in the next month! Merry Christmas LTT!

Cheers for another giveaway guys! Loved those planes btw, most likely grabbing a set myself. My favourite item would have to be the powersupply. Mine is on its last legs and is a bit of a beast, noise-wise, when I'm playing anything intense. Would love to get my gear into this kit... Cheers!

This channel single handedly got me interested in PC gaming and gave me the desire to have/build my own rig. Thanks for all the videos. You guys are awesome. Also, i'm a massive fan of quesadillas, but live in a country that only eats haggis and black pudding... just saying...

I really like the red bezel on the bottom edge. Looks like its packing some heat! And of course, dem signatures!!

I really like that red beveled edge and aluminium design. GTX 850m would do me quite well as I'm currently just rocking a GT 750m also. Dem signatures...
