Hybrid V Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Hey folks, I'm having a weird issue with my H100i Platinum where it crashes when loading up certain CPU intensive games. I know that with ASUS boards you need to disable Q-Fan control, so the pump gets a constant 12v output. The problem is I already did this on the first install and I'm still getting USB disconnects with the fans and RGB lighting powering off for a second before it restarts the AIO again. I can't figure out how to fix the problem and I am worried that this behavior could be wearing down my pump. I'm not sure why the AIO is still not getting the recommended voltage, if that is even the actual problem. The software I currently run to manage the AIO is iCUE for lighting and Corsair Link 4 for fan control. My cooler is also rocking the latest firmware. Any advice would be appreciated. If more info is needed from me please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Hopefully you mean iCUE crashes and not the system, but I suspect you have the same issue as those in the thread below. Try the simple color schemes suggested in that thread to see if it cuts down on the irritation. http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=182412 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RisenStar Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Had this on a Gigabyte board (Aorus Master z390). Making lights static via iCUE worked. Was afraid I had a bum USB header or something wrong with my board. Odd, but try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid V Posted December 19, 2018 Author Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) Thanks for the info. After a week or so of testing I concluded that this was indeed the reason for the issue. Switching to a static color seems to keep the power draw stable. This is unfortunate as I paid for the unit specifically for it's RGB pattern capabilities. Is there any statement by Corsair on this? Also, is there any attempt to fix this issue in future firmware updates or are paying customers just out of luck?
