kuddin Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 So I bought my H80i system a week ago. I had read that it could have a lot of noise but I was not prepared for the noise it put out. I was at a loss. Corsair link did not show all that should be there and I could not change any fan speeds. What was the problem? I searched and searched and then I came upon this forum post. It seems that corsair link will not function well with windows 8.1 and corsair is not doing anything to fix it...... http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=120962 I did the automated workaround and now every time windows loads up this "script" runs and corsair link runs like it should. Everything works, i can even change colors on the leds which was not even found before. So i say to you if you have loud high pitch noise from the fans they are probably running at full speed all the time or atleast ~2300rpm like mine. I run both fans now at ~1200rpm and my overclocked fx8350 (4ghz-4,7ghz) is at ~18c at idle, ~25c normal load and ~30 full load in heavy games. And if corsair link does not find your H80i pump or fans then i recommend doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you check out the stickies you'll see mentions of a Windows 8.1 update from last December (2.5.5145), and the most recent version (2.7.5339) fixed detection issues on some platforms on Windows 8/8.1.

kuddin Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 the "update" did not fix anything for me. this post is the only thing that has helped me.and btw don't you think i have tried every single ****ing thing possible out there before resorting to older tricks? with your post did you just want to feel superior and shut me down for linking to a year old post that ACTUALLY WORKS?
