Toxic505 Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Hi, I recently got a H150i to cool my new Ryzen 7 3800x. iCUE does not see my CPU temps when I select what sensor to go off of. Only H150i Temps, GPU and ASUS mobo sensor temps #1-12. I am running the latest version of iCUE 3.23.66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 H150i Temp (coolant temperature) is the proper control variable for the fans on the radiator. CPU heat is conducted into the coolant stream. Fans remove heat from the coolant stream. If the coolant temp does not go up, running the fans faster will not cool the CPU below the current level. There were issues with Ryzen 3000 series CPU temp readings at launch. I am not aware of the current status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But corsair needs to fix this so their product which is in charge of cooling a product that can be in excess of $400+ can be done properly.

This was part of your initial complaint. So it's not necessary to have this temperature to properly cool the CPU or control the fans on the radiator, which is what you appear to be trying to do. That said, it is still good to have the CPU temperature. CPU temps are provided by a component called the CPUID SDK. When new processors come out, the CPUID SDK must first be updated (it likely is by now) and then the update needs to be integrated into a build and release of iCUE. Unfortunately, this sometimes takes a couple of release cycles. It will be updated. In the meantime, you can use another tool - HWMonitor, for example - to see your CPU temperature.
