Hey all! Another question about Corsair Hydro X Series products, this should be a quick one. If I don't have enough Clear XL8 coolant for my build, would it be ok to mix or top off my reservoir/pump with distilled water? I've heard many people try this with no issues but i'd like to have you guys' opinion on it. Thank you so much! Can't wait to hear back! Have an amazing day!

Hey all! I'm new to the whole Hydro X Series and I did have a few questions coming into it. 1. Will I be able to use the xd5 pump normally without using a commander pro? I've been taking a look into it and I just want to make sure of the idea. Will I be able to change fans speeds/pump speeds using my MoBo? (asus rog hero viii wifi). In addition, I picked up a commander core xt from Best Buy and if I do go the non mobo route, will this work? 2. if I use my mobo for everything instead of using a commander pro, where would I plug in the Temperature Sensor Plug on the mobo? And, since it won't be connected to a Commander Pro, what does it do? Since the temp sensor plug shows me the temperature of the water through icue, where would i be able to see the temps? Or will I even be able to see it at all? Mainly, I'm just wondering how the Temp Sensor Plug works without the Commander Pro, where I can see the temp and etc. If I download iCue, will it pop up on there even without the Commander Pro? Thank you to whoever sees this and helps out! It seriously would help alot since i'm transitioning into it. I've been using EK alot but seeing Corsair and their custom loop series.. i've been thinking of transitioning. Again, thank you and I can't wait to hear back!

Hallo ich habe eine Hydro X Pumpe mit dem Wassertemperatursensor verbaut. Wenn ich in der ICue Software einstelle das 'Port 6' die Pumpe ist und 'Port1 und 2' die Lüfter des Radiators dreht die Pumpe immer mit 1970u/min. Und die Lüfter drehen sich nicht. (Das verstehe ich noch da die Wassertemperatur noch so niedrig ist. Aber warum dreh die Pumpe immer so hoch? Auch im Idle. Und kann man das einstellen das die Pumpe auch langsamer läuft? Ist es schädlich das die Pumpe immer so schnell dreht bei dieser Einstellung? Mit freundlichen Grüßen Odin
