red-ray Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 also, when i plug the 3 pin (single cable) pump speed sensor into the motherboard cpu fan plug, it reads between 450-470rpm. i thought this thing was supposed to run 2000rpm. Is this W10 TH1 or TH2? What build? I suspect TH2, see http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?t=152915. Which cooler do you have? The H110iGTX + H100iGTX + H80iGT Asetek based coolers report the fan rather than the pump speed so ~460 would be OK. What does CL report as the Fan + Pump speeds?

wytnyt Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Well everyone, here's the long term solution everyone has been waiting for: just go ahead and emulate those hardware specs to guarantee a stable environment where Link can work as expected! Actually you hit the nail on the head,I assume without even realizing it. There's lots of builds that don't have issues ,If Corsair would look at what users have in their builds good and bad ones,,it would likely help isolate problems some are having.

Looking at http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?t=153369 and http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?t=153370 as soon as you install W10 TH2 you get new issues with CL that were not issues when W10 TH1 was used.

No issues on W10 TH1? Come on, we both know even if you get Corsair Link to install, and it to make the registry edits correctly (which it often appears to fail at), there are still lots of bugs. It regularly decides to lose configs, firmware for some coolers have more issues than others, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircuitWizardry Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 It's been 9 months since Cool Guy said Corsair was fixing among other things, the need for users to hack the registry, and would provide firmware updates for the H80i and H100i to address USB connectivity and RGB LED color profile issues. So I downloaded the latest, and installed in my Win10 system. Pretty much not expecting much. First step after install and reboot was me having to update the registry manually. I still don't get why Corsair doesn't at least write a guide and tell customers they'll likely have to do so. Then I checked to see if there was a fix for the LED's set to zero issue on my H100i. NADA!!! At least I can count on some things in life... Corsair is keeping their past track record of over-promising and under-delivering! My best solution for Link, is to uninstall the software, unplug the fan cables, and control them via ASUS QFan on my motherboard. Make that 10 months. Corsair has had plenty of time to fix the LED issues. Even if they couldn't fix the firmware, they could have at least written a work around that won't let users set the colors to two of the LED's zero at a time, but they can't be bothered. I'd be willing to place a bet, that come a year, Cool Guy will still not have these things fixed. The truth, is that Corsair wants to say Link works, and use it as a selling point, but they just don't want to pay to really make it work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagle63 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Corsair Link is the classic example of a hardware company trying their hand at software and discovering it's a lot harder than they thought. I don't know if they're doing it themselves in-house, or if they're contracting it out. But either way, there's a fundamental problem here: talent.

ross57412 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 :sigh!:Thank you for the status update. I feel this should be moved to it's own thread, made sticky and updated at least once per week. i have to agree took me a while to find a link to this but glad i did and cannot wait for the upgrade was almost ready to trash the h 100i cooler and go with a kracken water cooler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 was almost ready to trash the h 100i cooler Assuming you have a H100i rather than a H100iGTX to and get endless "reboot needed" popups from CL 3.2.5742 on W10 TH2 you could do I as specify in http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?p=822047 rather then waiting for a CL release with a fix. Updated 2/11/15 I feel that after 10 months there should have been several status updates added to the first post of this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircuitWizardry Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I feel that after 10 months there should have been several status updates added to the first post of this thread. The absence of any updates from Cool Guy is very telling. It tells Corsair customers how valued they are. It gives us some great clues on what priority this has for Corsair.

doomded Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 So I deleted CL more than a year ago and only came back here to see how it has progressed since, and consider reinstalling it as my control software. But the amount of progress that has been made is seriously FUCKING SAD. STOP TRYING TO FIX THE SOFTWARE THAT OBVIOUSLY DOESN'T WORK AND START WRITING YOUR OWN. Just because it works on all your "test machines" (that are probably actually the same machine running various virtualizations of different machines) doesn't mean it will work in the real world. Honestly, as good as the hardware Corsair makes is, I don't think that I'm EVER going to buy any more Corsair products in the future, based solely on how shitty the software is. EDIT: I wonder how long it will take for them to delete this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nOm nom NOM3 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Has there been any news? or is Corsair still silent on the CL revamp? Also I think it would be best if people here could stop 100% ****ting on corsair. I know they have done a very poor job with this entire CL disaster, however I cant imagine they are very motivated to fix anything if everyone is speaking and acting the way they are. -- moving on. I have my H100i working pretty well on W10 Build 11082, I dont use that system often but It appears to work about as well as it did when I had windows 7. I have yet to give CL link a try with my H110i GT, I am still patiently waiting for the long awaited CL update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuro Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 OK well as i've only just joined the forum after using various Corsair equipment for years, I bought the H110i GTX the other day and it is less than impressive compared to my H110 which it replaced. For starters it doesn't cool my CPU as efficiently as the what it replaced by a factor of -25%...and the CL software is not accurate to a factor of about the same when comparing the temp readout verses Speccy for example as it is at least 10c incorrect every time, so I hope THIS is the first thing that is being corrected with hardware testing by the lemmings...as this is the first complaint ive had with Corsair gear7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtixman Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I agree completely with every word. I have had great experiences with Corsair hardware but this software is one of the worst designed and coded bits of crap I have ever worked with. You need one more monkey because 99 just isn't doing it. I believe you need 100 monkeys for a masterpeice. Even one less aparently garnishes a heaping pile of dung. So I deleted CL more than a year ago and only came back here to see how it has progressed since, and consider reinstalling it as my control software. But the amount of progress that has been made is seriously FUCKING SAD. STOP TRYING TO FIX THE SOFTWARE THAT OBVIOUSLY DOESN'T WORK AND START WRITING YOUR OWN.

EDIT: I wonder how long it will take for them to delete this post. As for nOm nom NOM3 please keep this oppinion to yourself. Some of us have been dealing with this junk for a VERY long time and are past the point of reasonable understanding. This has been a mess for FAR too long!!! I think it would be best if people here could stop 100% ****ting on corsair. I know they have done a very poor job with this entire CL disaster, however I cant imagine they are very motivated to fix anything if everyone is speaking and acting the way they are. For those of us with Asus mobo's perhaps have a look at Fan Xpert as part of the AI Suite. It is everything that Link is trying to be and isn't. Buy a PWM Y splitter like this and connect your H110 (or whatever rad fans you use) to the CPU fan header and use Fan Xpert to contol all your fans.

cadmonkey Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Actually oddly enough I installed version 4 which was even worse than ver3, then went back to ver3 after not running it for months and it works ok now. Maybe the version 4 install and uninstall fixed a few things for me. It can see my pump for the first time and control my fans and I only have one zero fan :) I'm not touching it now until everybody gives any new software their thumbs up.
