New Corsairlink2 software is here 2.3.4816

[Hawkeye1]

Everything is working great for me so far. Reinstalled the latest Intel RST drivers before I installed Corsair Link 2.3, been running 2.3 for an hour or so now, fiddling with the configurations.

Good news:
-I can actually set my Corsair case fans (AF-120 performance) to change RPM, and they will. I also don't get nearly as much buzzing as I did before.
-Most things will work properly, given a second or two. Profiles change now without some settings from previous selected profiles holding over.
-LEDs work and change properly so far.
-I can finally change my GPU's fan speed (I have the GPU node) and it responds.
-No sierra2service crashes (thank god they changed that).
-Temp, wattage, rpm, and usage measurements are all working and much more fluid.
-Actually measures my HDD (WD Velociraptor 1TB) temperature now.
-Did I mention I can change my fan speeds now? And that it doesn't crash all the time?

Bad news:
-Two of my case fans (230mm generic) still don't change, but that's probably the fans' fault rather than the Link's.
-H100 (original 100, not i) is being cooled by 2 SP120 performance fans. I still can't really change their speed. They will only go within +/-200 of 2000 rpm. If anyone knows why, please let me know.

My experience so far with 2.3. I'll update if anything changes. So far, so good (cross my fingers).

13 hours and 15 minutes mark. With 2.3 + iRSTe 3.5.1092.

Tyra, just update the driver. I'm convinced it is fixed.

i missed picking up my new h100i by 3 measley minutes so i get to sit here and listen to everyone playing with their toys.
hopefully those that gave up on these products will see the revised results and reconsider getting these as not only are they good but so is corsair support.

[MykaAurora]

Enough with it wytnyt. Some still have other problems too. This version seems to fixed more on x79 system.

[wytnyt]

there will always be problems with this type of software,im not in any way implying it to be perfect.
theres just too many varables associated with it.its just good to see progress being made,,as long as it functions and does what it needs to[cooling],i can do without all the bells and whistles,but thats just me.

[Hawkeye1]

Still running with no issues using Intel RSTe 3.6(something). No crashes, no blue screens.

[Rassal]

SO far it fixed a lot of things for me...

1- It fixed the BSOD so far with RSTe 3.5 and even 3.6...
2- It fixed my multiple crashes trying to just open the program or getting it out of the taskbar to maximise.
3- It detects Everything on the 1st shot... no need to delete, re-install, delete everything reboot and retry in hope everything gets picked up
4- No crashes when i am away yet...

And it supports Windows 8... was a long damn wait, but finally... let`s hope for the better.

Anyone know why my h100i stock fans will not change speed dynamically with my cpu temp? Weather using the notifications on the cpu or the custom curve for the fans, the fans will not change speed unless I make a save to my profile. This is my biggest issue with this software.

btw my Western Digital hard drive temp is now reading correctly as well as my corsair ssd.

I just got my Corsair Link kit (yay, sale), however the temperature based LED changing does not seem to be working when associated with my video card or CPU (if you toggle it between settings, it will choose the correct color for that moment, but that's it). I also can't seem to create new groups, so after cleaning my list to try and create some custom ones... I'm kinda stuck with just two.

What I've found so far:

If you have a brand new Corsair Link Commander, you NEED to download the latest firmware posted in this thread. From there, you need to update it from the Options -> Devices screen to see your Commander and nodes.

It has ran the whole day on my system with the latest Intel RST 11.7.0.1013 with my RAID 0 SSDs and no grief. Disk usage appears fine.

Really though, the Link gear could use a good "How-to" guide and a link to it in the package.

It appears to definitely be Windows 8 compatible :)

This newest version is truly wonderful compared to previous 2.x versions. I was amazed to see it start right up, with everything immediately recognized - especially considering the issues I had before. Very, very pleased with it so far as shown here.

Are the Cooling Nodes detected in the SW?
Options > Devices
Have you tried creating a new profile?

It shows up in my process list but not anywhere else..

Check your notifications tray and see if its there.
Which .exe is showing CorsairLINK2 or CorsairLINK Hardware Monitor?

Have you tried playing around with the sliders in the SW? Do the L.E.D.s light up?

My 4 HDDs are represented. What I'd like to change is my OS SSD. Here the temperature is shown as difference from 100°C, in my case 76°C, which is irratating and pointless in my view. Is there a trick to change this to normal temp reading?
Will give the latest IRST a try later.

It's probably a S.M.A.R.T. value that's causing it. Run another drive check e.g. CrystalDiskInfo and see if it too displays the same temp.

Are the L.E.D.s grouped to a device?

If the fans are connected to the H100 block, They will run at max speed.

Are the fans grouped to the CPU? It's better to leave it on the H100i temp as you may find the fans will be running louder.

Make sure the temperature values are at a reasonable value. e.g. 30, 40, 50 etc.
You need to save your profile first. Restart the software and you should be able to create new groups.

[Sly_Ripper]

Well my H100 pump has now either died or it's reported at 0 rpm.

Edit: resetting firmware fixed it.

Yes and yes :) The temperature probes attached to the cooling nodes work fine and the cooling nodes show up correctly (except for not showing any fans connected) in Options > Devices.

Any further thoughts most welcome.

Cheers !

Kind of begs the question, why plug the fans into the H100 at all then?

There has to be some way to control them. I think I heard something about the H100 only being able to control the stock fans, but I'm not sure if this is true and it'll be a pain to pull apart my system to check.

Is anyone using this with windows 7 64? I deleted all profiles but for some reason when I save a new profile it doesn't keep my program settings when I restart the program ... And also my old custom fan curves were still there aftet deleting the profiles which I think is causing the fans to spin up and down crazy.... Plus it only recognizes 1 of 3 hdd.....I reinstalled 2.2 and everything was working fine.

Can anyone who's using win7 64 confirm this or help me out?

Thanks
