New Build - No CPU Temps

[jakon72]

So I've just got my new rig built constructed of half new and half old parts, everything boots up properly. I checked my Corsair Link and Speccy to see my CPU temps and neither are recording any at all... I'm running an i7 7700K w/Corsair h100i. The pump and it's LED plus the fans are working but I'm not seeing any temps at all. Anyone have any ideas as to why this might be?

download HWMonitor http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html it should show you the temps. Also, make sure you have your corsair link usb cable plugged into one of the usb 2.0 connectors on the mobo, maybe check to see the connection is good by plugging in again. HWMonitor shows temps from the cpu sensor, if i'm not mistaken, so you should get a reading from there at the very least.

CPU temps are usually relied with a sensor in the CPU and the motherboard reading it. If it's not showing up then no software would be able to really fix it unless it's an issue with the motherboard BIOS

I've got my CPU temps up with Speccy now, I just can't seem to get them working with Corsair Link. The H100i just doesn't even show up in Corsair Link.

My old ASUS mobo did that when I had an AMD rig. For me it wasn't an issue. I just downloaded HWmonitor and checked temps. I did benchmarks and played AAA games with no hiccups

The problem is, I want to be able to adjust my fan speed on the H100i when I render videos. Without that I can overheat easily.

CorsairLink is really touchy anyways. On Win.7 it was fin for me but when I moved to Win.10 it had problems. You could get a fan controller? Maybe?
