"mini" mode for corsair link?

[mirkoj]

As title said, are there any plans or maybe options that I missed to have something like corsair link monitor only in mini mode...like those older windows gadgets with just sensor information, temperature, fan rpm... same info that we have on system window right now.

I kinda render a lot and with two GPUs in system when playing game on full loads it is nice to keep an eye on those details but huge system screen is taking up a lot more space :)

Even better would be option to have it like semi transparent overlay so even when running full screen game you can keep eye on stats.

 

Or we should just resort to 3d party monitors?

 

Another thing that I noticed is that my AI suite II sensors are showing exactly 10 degree less CPU temperature than corsair link.

But I think corsair is more correct as that same AI sensor is showing -1 degrees on motherboard so :)

 

 

And finally just small info... just played a bit more with fans in my system (4 noctua nf-f12, replaced stock marked fans).

Before I had 2 of these sucking air form outside to inside over radiator, 1 more beside pushing air in the case from outside, and 1 more at the bottom intake (corsair 800d case)

Problem was with firing 2 7970s in crossfire in game.. raising temp on each up to 80 degrees, and on CPU , when rendering 3d images after some time temps reaches 80 as well (i7 2600K OC at 4.6Ghz)

New setup... open side panel so GPUs can suck and exhaust all that air freely, and two fans added on top of radiator so now it is push pull mode, pushing from the top, inside over radiator and 2 more fans bellow pulling as well.

GPUs dropped for like 10 degrees in gaming, and CPU also staying nicely at approx 71 degree when rendering.

Just wanted to share.

 

Cheers!

Aisuite reads from some sensor near the cpu I believe not the cpu itself. Corsair link is reporting correct cpu temperature.

 

The negative one comes in because asus ai suite gets screwy when other monitoring applications are run. Ai suite will display correctly until you open another monitoring app, then it will get all screwy with motherboard temps and sometimes it will tell you voltages are incorrect.
