Lewatek Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I just installed my new Corsair h100i. The fans sound líke a jet engine. The corsair link software doesn't show me my pump speed or fans speeds. Is CL even compatible with windows 8.1? Link for the picture how my CL looks like. ------- http://imgur.com/82b2cXn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 your CL isnt being recognized in the software,theres threads here related to this issue... we can provide assistance if you explain how things are connected with the hydro and your software version used...

Lewatek Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 I have attached the corsair fans with y-cable from the pump to power them up. Software, I just downloaded the one from Corsair h100i download section Corsair Link Installer RC v2.7.5361. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewatek Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 I got the fans quiet now somehow by just changing something. Which is already better. Software is still a problem though. It fails to measure my cpu temp and I can't change fans speed nor change the led color on the pump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Try the Windows 8.1 registry fix and see if that helps. Try an older version of the software and see if that helps. Is the cooler detected in Windows? You can check by going to Devices and Printers found in Control Panel and look for "Integrated USB Bridge".

Aerasya Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Hi, I have the same problem... I have H100i with 2 Be Quiet! Silent Edition PWM attached with the y-cable from the pump. But in CL speed fan & color led don't appear... I would like a silent pump no gas machine. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top tab - "options" Left tab - Devices (2nd one down) Click on all the ^ to reveal the information. If an category doesn't have any information, then there is a problem between the Link and the motherboard. Based on your flashing red temp gauge, I suspect you will be missing some information. It's not exactly intuitive in order to make the link program work properly. You need to assign your readings to a group. This can be done on the 2nd tab "Groups". Not everything needs to placed in a group. Your HDD's can stay over on the left, as well as graphics card numbers. But your H100 fans and Pump need to be in the "H100i temp" group or the fan profiles will not work as intended. Putting them in the CPU temp group will make them run full blast all the time. Try a much older version of the Link program, from the 2.5 or 2.6 series, although I would try the registry fix first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is H100i doesn't appear in Link - Devices... and I don't know why ? In group, I just have HDD's temp, GPU temp/fan, & chassis fan.

I had to go back from 2.6 to 2.5 to finally 2.4 to get it to work when I first got my H80i (Win 7x64). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H100i appear with the v2.5 but I don't understand how to reduice noise of pump... When I used "Quiet Mode", the H100i make some noise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 the pump rpm cannot be reduced,its a set speed of @2250 rpm what type of noise do you hear,,its normal to hear a slight humming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm.. ok. I thought we could reduce the speed of the pump. Too bad, I was still able to slow down the fans. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 The quiet/Balanced/Performance settings are all fan speed profiles designed for the original SP120L fans. The settings themselves will work with other fans, but perhaps not at the RPM you'd like. You can create custom fan profiles yourself, however in the beginning you may wish to set either a fixed RPM or speed% for your fans. This is mostly personal preference, but I find that method is more useful for learning what levels of fan speed/noise you can tolerate and how your system cools at that speed. I also find fans racing up and down to be a bit distracting. You are likely to discover higher fan speeds only lower your average load temperature by a couple of degrees. It's hard to argue that double the noise is worth a drop in gaming temps from 53 to 50 degrees. Where higher fan speeds do help is in sudden spikes in load. The higher speed fans bring the spike back under control faster or prevent the temp from spiking at all. Again, if your steady load temps are in the 50's, you shouldn't be concerned that it spiked to 60 for a few seconds before dropping. This only becomes an issue if you are running near your thermal threshold, or whatever temperature you are comfortable at. I use 2 different saved profiles - one minimal speed for standard work/browsing and another with higher fan speeds for the fun stuff. It's just one click to switch back and forth. Also, when using the fan curves, the fans don't respond immediately to changes in the temperature, particularly on the way down. The delay may be only a few seconds or a few minutes. I seem to remember one of the Corsair staffers posting in can take up to 5 minutes for the fan controller to adjust. At any rate, it is by design to keep the fans from constantly racing up and down in RPM. I prefer the one click and done method, but again obviously personal preference.
