I have now swapped case and the temperature has dropped a significant amount. I ended up with placing the AIO in the roof because I had to stretch the AIO cables quite a lot. I have one issue thou: Ended up with connecting AIO fans and the exit fan to Commander Core and that works fine. The front fans to Commander Core XT and here it seems that they are not working correctly. They doesn't seem to react if I choose a preset fanspeed like low or balanced. They are all spinning at 1,700 rpm when the fans connected to the Commander Core running as they should. If I choose a custom fan cure it seems to work. Well, hope that it is a iCUE bug and that it will be fixed. Thank you for the help from all of you.

First of all - thank you for taking time to answer in such a detailed way - highly appreciated. If you ever swing by Stockholm, Sweden I'll buy you a couple of beers. 🙂 It seems that going for the Commander Core and Commander Core XT is the best option here for me.

(Forgot to add the drawing)

Thank you, was thinking of following steps explained here with Corsair 10 fans setup, it seems similar what you just explained. Have a Commander Core and a Commander Pro plus three RGB Lighting Node Core available to work with.

Ok, I'll skip the push-pull on the radiator and install the radiator on the side, with the QL fans. Putting three additional fans in the front with free flow. Maybe put the ML fans that came with the AIO and put them in the top? Thanks for the all the good advices here. Now I need to find a better place for the desktop instead on my corner. 🙂

Thank you for your recommendations. The system is indeed located in a corner of the room. Maybe I should go for some ML fans instead. But I was hoping for setting the AIO on the top with push-pull. Maybe I have to reconsider that? I have 13 fans available in total. 3x ML120 and 10x QL120 (and the two QL140) that I can use for the 5000D case.

Hello, I'm running a fairly maxed out system in a quite cramped box and I sometimes suffering from that my system are getting too warm. Getting warnings from both the CPU (+90c and sometimes more) and the GPU (+80c) and sometimes even the SSD disks. The 4000 case (originally 4000x but I swapped the glass front to an airflow one) is getting hot and especially when I run 4K gaming. I have the AIO standing in the front which limits the air-intake. If I push all the fans to 70-80% rpm it gets better but I prefer a more quieter system than that. Just to point out: I have checked thermal paste on the AIO/CPU and make sure that the fans are neat and clean. My thought would be to change the case to 5000d, set the AIO in the top and do a push-pull and then utilise the option to install six fans in the front/side of the case. A bit worried since the spring is on its way and my flat is getting very warm during summer times. 😞 ...changing case or is there any other ways to get this systems cooler? Current setup: Corsair iCUE 4000X (now with airflow front) ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero Corsair AX HX1600i AMD Ryzen 9 5950X ASUS GeForce RTX 3090 24GB ROG STRIX GAMING-OC Corsair 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 3600MHz CL16 2x Samsung 980 Pro 1TB Corsair: H150i Elite Capellix iCUE 360mm 3x Corsair QL120 RGB 120mm (AIO and back) 2x Corsair QL140 RGB 140mm (top)

It was back in stock this morning. I grabbed one before they went out of stock again. 🙂

I agree. I have never felt the urge for a product before like I do on this.. 😄

Yeah, I have the same issue. Using QL fans all over. I have to go in to the H150i to be able to change anything and the Commander Core is gone from the ICUE

Thank you for confirming.

Thank you. Much appreciated.

Hello, just got everything I need for start building my machine. But one thing came thru here. My plan is like this: The Elite Capellix 150i will be mounted in the front standing up with tubes up. I will mount TWO QL140mm fans in the roof but vill they fit? Looking at the link here it's not easy to determine. https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Cases/Mid-Tower-ATX-Cases/iCUE-4000X-RGB-Tempered-Glass-Mid-Tower-ATX-Case/p/CC-9011204-WW

Hey guys, will it work with the Corsair H150i Elite Capellix / iCUE-RGB / 360mm in the front with the tubes DOWN on a 4000X case?

Hey Nick, hope you're ok. Will it work with the Corsair H150i Elite Capellix / iCUE-RGB / 360mm in the front with the tubes DOWN on a 4000X case?
