Dare I say it.. Corsair H110i GT, RM850i and corsair link

[i don't know where to put this. the issue is more corsair link (software), with the fix for my H110iGT being prioritised so I figured water cooling]

 

 

So I've had my PC for around 2 months now, and during this time I've attempted to use corsair link software with my RM850i and H110iGT.

 

It worked for maybe one restart and that was it. The problem is plagued all over the internet, where when you start your pc, the program will auto-load and it'll say to restart to add this newly discovered device. this repeats every time.

 

couple of reasons why i want to do this:

  • the colour on the water block to go with my build (and also tell me the temp of the processor
  • to control the fan and motor speed
  • to control my psu
  • and to just generally know everything is OK

Please, if anyone has a fix, I would really love it!

 

Thanks!

Also, bonus question:

 

considerable difference for this water cooler when in push-pull rather than just push?

not worth the noise/money maybe 1-2c difference at most.

dont use corsair link its utterly crap. connect your fans to your mobo and set your fanspeed manually. use hwmonitor to check your pwm settings/temps

A few degrees cooler with push / pull but more noise. Fix for me was using the usb from power supply to motherboard header and connecting the cooler to power supply.

 I don't quite understand.. this either sounds like you've lost control of your water cooler...? pics of pc/corsair link interface would be perfect (as my psu does show up in corsair link, just not the water cooler. therefore it does sound like if what you're saying is what i'm thinking, then that might work.. i just don't know how :o)

I've honestly not looked into as I control My pump through my bios and no need to change LED.

I'd still like to fix it though

set your color, close corsair link, reboot, never open it again ever / uninstall it. it didnt work correctly ever, no matter what corsair AIO youre using. its crappy for more than one reason.

i've tried reinstalling (i'm a IT admin so i've already tried the usual tricks of the trade), and it still wouldn't show the H110i GT

 

theres one or two more things but i doubt they'll work, but i'll give them a shot I guess

 

[does the colour and settings remain if you remove the software?]
