What exactly is the issue you're having? Not being able to control the flow indicators LED's through iCue? They are aRGB LED's so you can connect them to your commander pro 3-pin LED outputs and just configure it as an LED strip. Those flow indicators use 8 LEDs so just select 8 of the LED's when configuring your lighting. iCue will control it as if it were one of their LED strips. I don't see a reason why you can't use the built in circuit board and LED's with iCue. I'm currently controlling a 3rd party LED strip and EK Waterblock with iCue. Both are configured as LED strips and it works fine.

He proved that it can hold higher pressure for a shorter amount of time. Not necessarily that it can hold high pressure indefinitely. That being said, I'm thinking his fittings are finger tight, but could be tighter considering they're leaking from the secondary O-ring

If i had to guess, he's probably testing in the "green" area which is much higher than recommended for a loop to begin with.

Not sure why they wouldn't put a pad there other than maybe they don't get that hot to necessitate a pad. I would add one anyway to play it safe. Just have to figure out what size/thickness to use.

Understood. After a little more digging (if I'm not mistaken) it seems the Commander Pro would actually shut off power to the fan's motor to stop spinning regardless of fan type whereas the Commander XT keeps power on and sends an Off/Min.Speed signal to the fan. Either way, still very happy with the gear.

I switched from Commander Pro's to Commander Core XT's and noticed that the Zero RPM does not work for my LL or QL fans. They only ever spin at their minimum speed (between 500-600 RPM). I've forced the firmware install on both my XT's and there's been no change. Even when I set the fan speed manually using a custom curve to 0% the fans continue to spin at 500-600. Is there something I'm missing? It's not a huge issue, just seems like something that isn't working as it should.

Ah, that makes sense then. I was setting up my new Commander Core XT and noticed something. Zero RPM doesn't seem to ever turn the fans off, but instead runs them at their lowest RPM. I kind of miss being able to have them completely off but it's not really a big deal since they're essentially silent at that speed anyway. Just threw me off since my Commander Pro's were able to. For reference I'm using the XT's with LL and QL fans.

Thank you @Technobeard @Zotty @DevBiker for your hard work on the forum and putting the profile information back! Question: I see that the default HyrdroX fan curves suggest 4000RPM at 52C. I'm assuming this is to set whatever fan is connected to spin up at max speed? What fans have an RPM speed higher than 1500RPM? Thanks again everyone!

Have you set up the XD5 under the "3-Pin Lighting Effects" tab? My understanding is that the "Lighting/RGB" portion of it needs to be set up first in order for the Commander Core XT to "know" that there is a Hydro X device connected to the unit. See Corsair's suggestion on doing so in Reply #6 here:

You're going to need an RGB hub in addition to what you currently have. Connect 6 LL120 PWM connectors to Commander Pro. Connect RGB Hub to one of the Commander Pro LED Ports. Connect 6 LL120 RGB LED connectors to RGB Hub. Connect RGB Strips to the second Commander Pro LED Port. RGB strips need to be +5V ARGB (preferably Corsair's to keep it simple) and daisy chained to one another.

Is there anywhere else that the XD5 fan and pump profiles are posted? I used to reference this thread but it all seems to be gone now 😞

Yes, the order is the same. You can either make your own cables or you can purchase them already made. Cable info: https://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=174759 Purchase: https://piratedog.tech/collections/rgb-adapters/products/motherboard-a-rgb-aura-mystic-light-to-corsair-rgb-adapter
