carpenj Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Any tips on what I could do to fix this? As you can see in the pictures below, no matter what temp my CPU is at, the fans run at the same speed. I have it set to custom. Did I set something up wrong that you see? http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l13/aaron_c_2006/ghx_zps91181e49.png http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l13/aaron_c_2006/Untitled-3_zpscb9312d4.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripshod Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 If you are running windows 8 bad news, the software isn't compatible atm. Next release should fix that. If you're running CorsairLink 2.2.0 with firmware earlier than 1.0.4 you won't be able to control the fans until the new firmware gets released.

Toasted Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Are you using the stock fans that come with the unit? @Ripshod Windows 8 doesn't have Aero. It's Windows 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpenj Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm running Windows 7, x64, and they are SP120 fans (not the ones that came with it). Corsair Link 2.2.0, and firmware is 1.0.4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Unfortunately the H100i can only control the stock fans that it comes with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpenj Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Seriously?! What's the difference between the SP120L and the SP120 that causes the SP120 to be incompatible? Guess I blew $40 on SP120's then, because its been so long since I bought them now after all the returns (on my third Corsair Hydro since Christmas). This has been a never-ending PITA like no other. I am getting ready to do a build for a friend, just don't think I can recommend this stuff to him at this point. Hopefully things get cleaned up at some point. Corsair should refund me for the SP120's since they show those fans on the H100i in pictures. Insinuating they will be fully functional when they aren't shows a lack of care and respect to their client base in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripshod Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 @Ripshod Windows 8 doesn't have Aero. It's Windows 7. How I missed that I do not know. Nice catch ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpenj Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 And as an update, the SP120L fans do work with Corsair Link...but they make this awful metallic rattling sound. It's quieter, but much more irritating than, the sound of the SP120 fans. I guess I'll wait for the firmware update and hope that fixes it.

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted January 30, 2013 Corsair Employee Share Posted January 30, 2013 There will be a fix for that rattling noise coming from the stock fans. The new set of fans that will work with the i series coolers are going to be PWM fans.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
