Posted January 7, 2016 Hey everyone, just recently got together a computer, specs in signature as always. I installed the corsair link software hoping that everything would be fine and dandy but at first it didn't recognize ANYTHING at all! just empty... So I rebooted my system and this time most of my components showed up but they were all reading 0, 0° and 0% activity and so on. I have no idea how to fix it, I have it ALL correctly plugged in and so on. I want to be able to control my Pump and Fans that are attached to my radiator. They are all on and working but I want to set custom curves and so on. I am really frustrated with my choice of cooler, I wish I had gotten the x61 Kraken, CAM software is really brilliant and ALWAYS works. I am using Windows 10 x64 Corsair, F U!!!!!!

Posted January 7, 2016 well you dont need corsair link for the cooler to work.... and btw CAM is a resource hog, definitely not recommended to leave running in the background what OS are you using? corsair link is a bit picky about that you may have to use a different version for your OS NEW PC build: Blank Heaven minimalist white and black PC Old S340 build log "White Heaven" The "LIGHTCANON" flashlight build log Project AntiRoll (prototype) Custom speaker project Spoiler Ryzen 3950X | AMD Vega Frontier Edition | ASUS X570 Pro WS | Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB | NZXT H500 | Seasonic Prime Fanless TX-700 | Custom loop | Coolermaster SK630 White | Logitech MX Master 2S | Samsung 980 Pro 1TB + 970 Pro 512GB | Samsung 58" 4k TV | Scarlett 2i4 | 2x AT2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAM isn't a resource hog, maybe it uses 1GB of ram but fuck it I have 16 of them so it's ok. It's not even using 5% of my cpu.... 2. I am using Windows 10 3. I know I don't need corsair link for the cooler to work, otherwise the fan wouldn't be bloody spinning and my cpu wouldn't be running at 30°. Srry if that sounded like a rant... it's because it was a rant Spoiler CPU: i7-6700K 4.7GHz | GPU: GTX 980 STRIX 1337MHz | CPU Cooler: H110i GTX AIO | Motherboard: Asus Z170-AR | Case: NZXT H440 White | PSU: CS750W | PCPartPicker Link: http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/43BkVn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 7, 2016 Corsair Link works fine for me. I reckon you dun goof'd and didn't install it properly. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Shot through the heart and you're to blame, 30fps and i'll pirate your game - Bon Jovi Take me down to the console city where the games are blurry and the frames are thirty - Guns N' Roses Arguing with religious people is like explaining to your mother that online games can't be paused...

Srry if that sounded like a rant... it's because it was a rant cam is a resource hog it has been since its release and 5% of your CPU is a lot, fyi the problem is not how much CPU it uses the problem is the lag spikes it causes to the entire system, which makes really noticeable stutters in games anyway, try uninstalling it, restart your PC, and downloading the latest version from here http://www.corsair.com/en-us/support/downloads then install that, and if it still doesnt work then see if anything here helps you http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?t=132954 NEW PC build: Blank Heaven minimalist white and black PC Old S340 build log "White Heaven" The "LIGHTCANON" flashlight build log Project AntiRoll (prototype) Custom speaker project Spoiler Ryzen 3950X | AMD Vega Frontier Edition | ASUS X570 Pro WS | Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB | NZXT H500 | Seasonic Prime Fanless TX-700 | Custom loop | Coolermaster SK630 White | Logitech MX Master 2S | Samsung 980 Pro 1TB + 970 Pro 512GB | Samsung 58" 4k TV | Scarlett 2i4 | 2x AT2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got it almost working somehow, I rebooted 2 times, ran the installer, did a "repair" and rebooted again and it showed me the stuff I had installed in my computer like cpu and cooler and stuff. BUT I STILL COULDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING! I tried changing the LED and ramping up the fans but the LED stayed white and nothing changed at all. I really don't understand why it's just not working.

Posted January 8, 2016 What is the fan control type in your bios it should be set to PWM mode.
