  1. Thank you! I managed to do so yesterday, using isopropyl alcohol. The CPU runs at 25° when idle - a value I'm really happy with.
  2. Hi, I'm currently building a new pc system. I applied my own thermal paste to the CPU (Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut). Looking at another thread here I've just realized that I've forgotten to clean the preapplied thermal paste on the H150i. Should I remove the paste again or do they work together in conjunction? As the Kryonaut is (seemingly) the higher-end paste it would probably be the best to remove both of the applied pastes and reapply Kryonaut - correct?
  3. Thank you for your quick answer. In that case, I think I'll stick to the 3 LL120s and use a push configuration. One more question: Would you still advice to install the 4 thermal probes the C-Pro provides? If so, where would you install them in my case (3x120 front intake, 2x140 top exhaust, 1x120 rear exhaust)? I was thinking one near the GPU, one near the CPU, one near the intake radiator and maybe one at the bottom near the PSU (which I plan to connect to the C-Pro using the USB-header).
  4. Good day to everyone. I'd like to apologise in advance for my first post being a cry for help.. I have googled and found some answers to my questions, but they don't answer it fully. Here it is: I'm currently building a PC system in the Corsair Obsidian 500D RGB (my first time building a PC). After having done some research about ideal airflow and fan configuration, I ended up with the push/pull setup. My case has 3 LL120 fans attached to the front. As the fans LEDs are only viewable from the intake side, I'd like to keep them that way. My question is: Am I allowed to mix the LL120s with the supplied ML120s from the H150i PRO within a push/pull setup? Or could this create turbulences? Would it be correct to connect the MLs (on the pull side behind the radiator) directly to the H150i and the LLs on the push side to my fan commander pro? I've read about setting up a custom fan curve in iCue for the 2nd row of fans within the push/pull setup, so that you can sync them via the fan commander pro to the CPU temp that the H150i measures. I understand that you can only use one fan type in a single commander's LED hub, but that's not a problem for me, as the supplied ML fans aren't RGB anyway. I'm only worried about causing air turbulences between the two fan types (if such a thing exists, anyway). The alternative would be doing a push-setup with the LL120 fans only and ditch the MLs - however, I'm afraid the thermals as well as the noise levels could be negatively affected that way (CPU is a i9-9900K). Thank you very much for your help in advance. EDIT: forgot to mention that the push/pull setup on the front side of the case is meant for intake. I have 2 LL140s on top and 1 LL120 on the back for exhaust.
