Like I said earlier, I just tried it out as a last resort. ICUe hasn’t crashed, usb has not disconnected, everything is running smooth like butter. That link is the only thing I tried and for some reason it’s working for me. I know that it is powered by SATA. I don’t know how it works in the software but that cpu fan port is affecting the hardware in some form or another. I’ll go enjoy my rainbow wave link and no usb disconnect. :)
Since I changed the power setting on the cpu_fan I haven't had any problems with either software or hardware. My computer has been on for 12 hours and i'm still able to change the settings on ICUe software and it hasn't crashed. No wonky RGB lighting in the fans or pump itself. This will be my last post regarding this, you can either try it or not. It has worked for me so:sillygrin
I only shared what I tried and discovered and it worked. Up to the devs to further investigate it but so far so good and I don't have to hear that accursed usb disconnect sound and actually have a functional ICUe software.
