A beautiful tempered glass side panel meant I had to give the back some love (unlike my previous build) eventhough it'll be up against a wall! ;): The little channel cover on the 500D was an absolute godsend - although I had a struggle getting it back on because of how many cables are packed in there.

I was hoping to have one by the COD and Cyberpunk releases - but that's looking quite unlikely now :[pouts: Fingers crossed I'll be able to pick one up at some stage in 2020 to complete the build!

Sadly this build is only partially complete, as I couldn't get my hands on a 3080. Once I do, that'll be going into the loop - replacing the 1080 which is currently there. I couldn't stare at a boxed up 10900K all day, so decided to start the build anyways! That being said, I'm still pretty happy with how everything turned out since it's my 2nd ever PC Build and my 1st ever custom loop.

ISSUES IS SOLVED. I FORCED A FIRMWARE UPDATE OF THE COMMAND PRO, WHICH BROUGHT BACK CONTROL FOR FAN #1 Hi Guys, Recently completed my first Hydro X build. Well, partly completed since I cant get my hands on a 3080 at the moment. I have a Commander Pro with 6 QL120 Fans connected to it. I've applied a custom curve to the fans, and it appears to be working for all the fans except 1. Fan #1 - QL120 RGB Fan #2 - QL120 RGB Fan #3 - QL120 RGB Fan #4 - 2x QL120 RGB (Using Splitter) Fan #5 - QL120 RGB Fan #5 - XD5 Pump As you can see in the attached screenshots, all fans have the same performance profile applies and they are all 0RPM except for Fan #1. Has anyone seen anything similar? Wondering if possible a faulty fan or Commander Pro. UPDATE: Plugged the same fan into different fan port, and could successfully control the RPM - so the issue is not with the fan.

Hi All, Have any of you used any Non-Transparent/Opaque White coolants in your Hydro X loop? Here is a list of 'compatible' liquids according to Corsair. https://www.corsair.com/eu/en/Categories/Products/Custom-Cooling/Pump-Reservoir/Hydro-X-Series-XD5-RGB-Pump-Reservoir-Combo/p/CX-9040006-WW#cc-compatibility-others It seems Mayhems Pastel is no longer possible to get - and the other Pastel/Opague liquids that are compatible don't seem to have the best reviews. EK Cryofuel Solid would have been my next choice after Mayhems Pastel, however it seems this is not compatible according to the above chart. I'm not too sure why Cryofuel Solid isn't compatible - as from what I can tell there is no aluminum in Hydro X loops. Does anybody have any recommendations for a white Opaque/Non-Transparent coolant which won't cause issues?

Awesome, good to have something to reference! Many thanks for providing those links.

Hi All, Not sure if Corsair staff read/respond to threads here - but hopefully so! I'm currently in the process of building a new system, and planning on going full custom Hydro X loop. I will be trying to get my hands on the Nvidia 3080 Founders Edition once it's released. Do you think we'll see a Hydro X Water Block for these cards close to the release date? I know other Water Block vendors have already confirmed that they are working on their blocks for the 30 series, but I haven't seen anything related to Hydro X yet.
