    Question about pump height of iCUE Link H100i non-LCD and LCD

    Hi everyone,

    I am looking to replace an air cooler in my sffpc (Formd T1 v2.1). The clearance of the case is 53mm max for an AIO due to my gpu size. Right now I am looking at either the iCUE Link H100i non-lcd or lcd version, but I could not find any info about the pump height online or in reddit.

    I wonder if you guys have measured it before? or if you have currently have one, could you please measure it?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    H150I elite LCD coolant sensor issue

    Hi all, so today when I turned my PC on I heard my pump running at max speed and not changing like it normally does. I went into icue and seen I couldn’t control the pump anymore. My motherboard still read pump speed but icue did not. I updated everything and forced firmware update and now I can control pump speed. The issue now is that I think the coolant is reading the wrong temp. When I increase pump speed, the coolant temp rockets up +7deg and throws all my fan curves off. 66deg in house, CPU reading like 39-44c regardless of pump speed. Under load, normally my coolant is around 50c after some time of moderate load. When it gets hot I switch all fans to 100% and increase pump speed. Now when I’m at 52c , and I max everything out it puts the coolant at 62c. Never ever seen it this high did my cooler die? CPU temps are completely normal like 40-60c

    Corsair 4 pin rgb to standard 4pin rgb?

    I have a basic Corsair rgb controller from my Crystal 570x case that I want to reuse, but it doesn't work with all my other fans because of the connection. Is there a Corsair male to standard female 12v rgb connector I can get somewhere?

    Question for RM850x shift psu

    So I recently bought an RM850x shift power supply. I’m building my PC for Christmas, and I have an ASUS TUF 3080 that uses 2 pcie connections as well as a motherboard that requires 2 eps connections. Will I still have one more pcie slot open for the Corsair icue link hub?

    18 month old H150i lost coolant

    I've got an 18 month old H150i elite capellix xt in my i9 13900k based system. It started making funny noises on Thursday.

    See video (either around 10 seconds or 60 seconds depending on whether it trimmed properly!)

    Having stopped the fans in turn, the only thing it left was the AIO. So I ordered a new one, which I fitted today.

    On removing the old radiator, it was clear that it was far from full of coolant - I'd say half full, if that. You could hear it flow through the system as you tilted it.

    So the question is, how, after only 18 months, have I lost coolant from a sealed unit? And as concerning - where has it gone?! No obvious songs of liquid in the system but its not in the radiator any more so...??

    And surely I should get more than 18 months out of this???

    1000D case radiators

    I recently bought a 1000D case off Amazon. It came with 2- 480mm mount in the front a 1-420mm for the top. I replaced the top fan mounts with duel 480's and I was wondering has anybody used 4 Alphacool 480mm monstas that's 80mm thick? My plan is to make this more functionality over aesthetics. So I plan on running 16- arctic S12038 120mm fans that spin up to 4,000 rpm. I also plan on splitting the radiators as in 2 for the cpu and 2 for the gpu when the rtx 5090 comes out and companies start making waterblocks for them.

    This software...

    Everytime I start icue it crashes instantly without any reason, it's freshly installed and I'm going insane like any software works almost perfectly but icue... I can't stand this software. Am I doing anything wrong?

    Icue and Hue entertainment area question

    Hey I have a question regarding the following.

    I have set up Icue with Hue integration. And created an entertainment area within the HUE app. Assigned some light strips to the area and linked with Icue. All is working fine. As soon as the pc has booted the lights in the entertainment area are lighting up in the configured colors.

    BUT when I shutdown my PC the lights are still on. I know you can configure within the HUE app what should happen to the lights if the sync is stopped which is configured to turn them off. But it seems it is not working. If I shutdown the pc and go to the HUE app there is still an indicator that the entertainment area is still in sync mode and I can manually turn it off but it doesnt happen automatically.

    So I guess that Icue is "not telling" the hue app to stop the sync.

    What can I do about this !?

    TX750M & 4080 Super Compatiblity with 12VHPWR PSU Cable

    For powering a 4080 Super and having a TX750W PSU with only 2 pcie 6+2pin connectors, if I were to use Corsair's 12VHPWR Type 4 PSU Power Cable to supply power to my GPU, would both cables each draw 300W or is the PSU's output itself limited to 150W per pcie 6+2 connection? And is the 12VHPWR PSU cable even compatible with the TX750W?

    Asus Tuf x570 plus PSU Corsair rm850x compatibility

    Looking to upgrade my PSU from a cv650 before I install my new 4070 super. Was looking at the 2024 RM850x because it has the new style GPU connection (really don’t want to use an adapter or run multiple cables) but when I try to select it on pc part picker it doesn’t exist with my current build. Is it really not compatible for some reason? I know it’s an atx3.1 and 5th gen pcie ready but my understanding is 5th gen is backwards compatible so is 3.1. This has been quite the rabbit hole lol I’ve been searching all week! I have a Corsair spec delta rgb mid tower atx case.

    K70 pro til

    Hello. I just bought the corsair k70 pro tkl yesterday. I have some problems tho. When I press the performance button the keyboard sometimes disconnect and connect again. It doesn’t just turn red. The second problem is that at all of my profiles I choose through the icue to disable win key (turn the slider to on) so whenever I press the windows key it doesn’t pop up the search bar and it doesn’t work. Is it a problem with my keyboard or icue’s problem? Help me please. I think of refunding it.

    Help with hx1500i

    Hey all! Happy holidays!

    I'm posting because I'm having an issue finding replacement cables for the power supply above. I'm looking to get two cables that go from the PSU to my motherboard (MSI b650 tomahawk). For some reason the ones I ordered off of Amazon didn't fit. Was hoping for some help!

    Thanks in advance.

    [FIXED] HS80 Wireless and HS80 MAX Wireless No Sound Output

    Hello, I recently had an issue with my HS80 MAX Wireless and was scouring the internet for a fix. I came across a year old post about the issue without a fix and replied there. I figured that I'd make a separate post to hopefully raise awareness around the issue. Hope this helps someone!

    Fix: Update iCUE software and wireless receiver and headset firmware. Then, with headset on, follow instructions to pair the wireless receiver with the headset (gear icon of headset > pair button next to "USB wireless receiver pairing" > follow prompts). After you've done that turn the headset off, unplug the wireless receiver, plug the receiver back in, turn the headset on.

    If that does not work, try the steps below first then try pairing the receiver w/ the headset after.

    HS80 MAX Wireless
    Windows 11 Home
    iCUE v5.22.86 (latest version at the time, I think)
    Running EarTrumpet as volume mixer
    Tested sound with Spotify and speakers (would flip flop between the devices to see if sound was actually coming out))

    I fixed this issue by doing the following things, in this order:

    1. Restarting the HS80 MAX Wireless (did not fix issue)
    2. Restarting my PC (did not fix issue)
    3. Forcing update on HS80 MAX Wireless via iCUE (did not fix issue) [gear icon > check for updates > 3 vertical dots icon > force update]
    4. Updating all products via the main settings page of iCUE (did not fix issue) [main gear icon in the top right > software updates > check for updates > update all]
    5. Restart PC to allow updates to apply
    6. Restart iCUE to ensure updates applied to it
    7. Disable and enable headset in sound (did not fix issue) [control panel > sound > right click headset > disable/enable]
    8. Realized my speakers were not working too, so tried disabling and enabling them from the sound setting in control panel too (this fixed the issue with my speakers)
    9. Ensure that the headset it set to the "default device" (did not fix issue)
    10. Try the "Fix" step in the first paragraph

    I am not an super familiar with Corsair, iCUE, the HS80 Wireless, the HS80 MAX Wireless, or general audio issues. If this doesn't work for you I apologize but I probably can't help beyond what is here. Hope these steps helped/end up working if you're also having the same issue. Best of luck!

    Keywords for search engines:
    Corsair, Corsair HS80 Wireless, Corsair HS80 MAX Wireless, Corsair iCUE, HS80 Wireless, HS80 MAX Wireless, iCUE, no sound output, no sound, audio output

    Rule 6 comment for the mods: I do not believe this to be an iCUE issue/problem. While iCUE does serve as a part of the issue the main brunt of the resolution was done through windows and working with the actual hardware. Happy to re-post or move if necessary.

    Editing to add that I cross-posted this solution to the Corsair Forums (here).

    Corsair Virtuoso XT Sound crackling

    So I've recently bought a K70 MAX and I had to update ICUE from 4 to 5 and now only when ICUE is on the crackling/popping sounds appear when playing games. I knew it was an issue when ICUE 5 came out but after so much time is there any solution?

    EDIT: Just after a while of searching I've found that using dolby access solves the issue, headset even sounds better with it and the equalizer is same as in corsair yet still you can use all of the ICUE features like lightning, macros and other settings for devices

    Void Elite Wireless noise when speaking

    Hello, 

    So i bought this new Void RGB Elite Wireless headset, everything is fine except this awful buzz noise coming off of my left ear (the attached mic one) sometimes while speaking with my friends through Discord. I sent it back to Amazon just thinking it was a faulty product, then repurchased the exact same model, but, weirdly enough the problem still persists.

    I already tried moving settings in Discord, in the ICUE equalizer, forcing firmware updates; basically any troubleshooting step I could think.

    Could this be a software issue or is it a design flaw?

    Thanks for reading.
