    From what I understand, the cooler's LED just doesn't support it. That said, you do have those effects on the new Pro series.
  2. DevBiker
    Have you tried rearranging the fans on the fan hub? Also, I noticed that you have an EVGA cooler. What happens if you shut down the EVGA control software?
  3. DevBiker
    What other monitoring programs are you running? Does this happen when you don't have them running?
  4. DevBiker
    Hmm. We've seen issues with Adaware Free but I've not heard of any with AVG ... yet. Try uninstalling that and see what happens.
  5. DevBiker
    What antivirus?
  6. DevBiker
    OK ... this means that the Corsair Link service isn't getting data to the Corsair Link UI. The question we need to figure out is why this started. So ... some questions: - Did you check to see that the Corsair Link Service was starting when you start up Link? Link starts this service on demand so it won't be running if Link isn't running. But it should be running when Link is. - Are you running an antivirus or firewall product of any kind? - Is there anything else that you've installed between the time it worked and the time it didn't?
  7. DevBiker
    Yeah, and I don't think we found a good answer for him either. The thing is ... if it was a software bug, it'd happen to everyone. So my guess is that it's hardware but that's something that Corsair would need to weigh in on.
  8. DevBiker
    Well, what I'm trying to narrow down is if it's the CoPro or if it's the software. If you have the exact same behavior using a Lighting Node Pro, then I think it's safe to say it's the software. If, however, it works correctly with a NoPro, then we know it's the CoPro.
  9. DevBiker
    So ... have you seen this when the fan hub is connected to both the Node Pro and the Commander Pro? Or just the Commander Pro?
  10. DevBiker
    That's certainly odd. Questions for a bit more detail: Is the "bleedover" between fan 4 and 5? Or 5 and 6? I think it's 4 & 5 but want to be sure. Does this only happen with Fan 5? What happens if you rearrange the fans on the hub? Does the issue move with the physical fan or is it always the fan in Port 4/5 on the RGB Hub? You've said "essentially the same" but let's be more specific.
  11. DevBiker
    Set it to Static Mode, Black (0,0,0). Hit Apply. Done.
  12. DevBiker
    Yes, should definitely be a sticky.

    If the pump gets the full 12V, it will operate properly. If it doesn't, it won't operate properly and very well may fail in a short period of time. As long as the fans are connected to the pump, the pump will control the fan speeds. It won't have anything to do with the setting on the fan header; that is only there to give the pump power, not to control the fan speed or anything else. You will use Link to set and control your fan speeds. But you are seeing 0 RPM and the "unknown USB device messages" because the pump doesn't have the correct amount of power. So set it to 100% in the BIOS. That is the only fix.

    Oh, no, not at all. See Zotty. And I'll have more soon as well But ...between multiple Commander Pros and Lighting Node Pros, I think we both had the cables. It could well be, possibly, that a cable was missing from your LNP. Hopefully Corsair will just send you the cable.
  15. DevBiker
    I think I understand the problem. You have a Lighting Node Pro. It came with ONE cable to connect the LNP to a Fan Hub Controller. You purchased, standalone, a second RGB Fan Hub because you have more than 6 fans and, therefore, needed the second hub. However, you do not have a cable for this second hub. Correct?
  16. DevBiker
    You can click on one of the "balls" and use the arrow keys.
  17. DevBiker
    From what I understand, it's a hardware limitation. Who knows ... maybe we'll see it in the next generation of coolers.
  18. DevBiker
    With the H80i v2, you can only have one color at a time. Sorry, dude.
  19. DevBiker
    Well, they have one coming. They won't confirm or deny but we all know it's coming ... the H150i Pro ... sometime really, really soon.
  20. DevBiker
    Are you taking out the supplied SP fans? IF yes AND we can confirm that the controller in the case will work with the LL fans (and I really do think that it will), THEN: IF you are getting the CoPro, you can get 6 individual LL fans and the Expansion Kit - you won't need the Lighting Node Pro or the Fan Hub that comes in the 3 pack. ELSE (if you are forgoing the CoPro), you will need the 3 pack to get the Lighting Node Pro (LNP). Either way, yes, the strip expansion pack is all you'll need. The CoPro is not required for the RGB. You will, however, need that OR a LNP. And yeah, the Commander Pro seems to be in short supply, which is driving up the cost. It does seem to be in stock @ Corsair.com (at least in the US).
  21. DevBiker
    Some thoughts/comments: The 3 Pack of LL fans comes with a 6 port hub and a Lighting Node Pro. You don't need to 3 packs ... save a couple of $$ and get 1 3 pack and 3 singles. I don't know for certain if the fan hub that comes with the case works for the LL fans; I would think that it does but I wouldn't want to steer you wrong. Hopefully someone from Corsair or with a 570X can pipe in with a definitive answer. The Commander Pro does not come with LED strips. However, you do have a Lighting Node Pro in your LL 3 pack so you can get just the LED strip expansion pack. Again, saves you a couple of dollars. With that, the Commander Pro is actually optional for your RGB setup. That's not to say that you shouldn't get it, just that you don't need it for the RGB. It will give you better fan control over the motherboard controls (those are soooo 2017) as well as the temperature sensors and the USB hub. I, personally, quite like the CoPro - I just got a second one for my home server in addition to the one on my personal tower. I find the temp sensors very handy for precise control over noise and fan speed based on something other than CPU temp, which is somewhat meaningless for airflow control when you have liquid cooling.

    Here's a dirty little secret: the AIO pump header, at least on the Asus boards, is just a normal, 1.0A fan header that's set to 12V/100% by default. That's it. And guess what? You can enable Q-Fan control for that header and use it just like any other fan header. So what's best, IMHO? Having a dedicated SATA connection for the pump. No silly 1.0A limitation, guaranteed 12V and available 5V and 3.3V rails if you need them.

    One comment ... if you read the blog post, it says "rotate the cooler’s pre-installed bracket and remove it." While true, that's not the whole story. If you grab the bracket and just rotate it, you won't get anywhere. At all. Instead, if you are holding the bracket with the copper cold plate "up", then you need to push down slightly on the bracket. This releases the clips and allows you to then "rotate the cooler's pre-installed bracket and remove it".
  24. DevBiker
    Ah, yes, definitely. The default curves are geared more towards internal case temps (from the temp sensors) than the CPU temp.
  25. DevBiker
    If that works (and I doubt that it will), it won't be supported. And you'd likely still need a fan hub. The fans take 4 pin cables, not 3. MSI does have board with a dedicated "Corsair" header that would support the RGB strips and possibly the fan hub. One note: As much as folks complain about Link here, I've (personally) found Aura to be worse - continually crashing and sometimes consuming up to 30% of by 7700K CPU. YMMV, of course.
