Thank you...

Is it because I am against the LED's? Seriously, noone?

Hi Guys, I believe my good old PSU is having some issues and needs replacing after 7 years:) It served me well. Question is: I already have a H115iPro, linked to a USB port. If I buy a RM850i 1. Do I have to dedicate another USB slot on the Motherboard, 2. Is there a pass through setup I was unable to fathom from online manual 3. Assuming the 2 above are no, How??? Do I need a commander or some other snappily named and marketing approved gizmo or accessories. I am pretty sure I am not the only one. PS. I prefer not to have any LED's on, pulsing or dancing around except to show me the status of a module or system. I know, despite the horrandeous performance loss :laughing:

Hey Buddy, To be Honest, there is no way to be certain but to actually try it. I am going to take a different approach, from your specs, you can afford it... And I am sure there are return guarantee vendors in your area. For me Temps were high, obviously. I didn't compare them to other people because I have a Corsair Air 740 Case. Nothing but the CPU was overheating. I picked 115 i pro specifically 1. It appears to be the quietest of the 280mm 2. It has 2 fans, hence i didn't need a splitter or anything and just used the motherboard cpu headers. Worst case scenario, you have spent a 100 something dolars and upgraded another component. The alternative is a cracked or burned CPU core which is around 1K USD :) Please let us know how you get along.

Thank you c-attack, Finally had time to replace it with an H115i Pro, today. Almost Completely silent (You can hear the pump, if you concentrate real hard... and below 50 Celsius, under load; despite being clocked to 5Ghz (9700K)

Hi Guys, I hope someone could shed some light to my conundrum. Recently, I had to build a new custom PC, New motherboard, ram, cpu. But recycled used the old AIO Cooler GPU etc. System specs are up to date on my profile. Radiator is mounted up top on a corsair Air 740 Case, blowing in. CPU is Intel Core i7 9700K Fans are running off Motherboard headers, Pump Molex and USB link are connected. Pump control runs to Motherboards dedicate AIO connector Temperatures I am seeing are 40 Celsius Idle and over 75 Celsius while gaming and very very loud fans. I have a strong suspicion Pump is not moving the coolant around as it should since when I disconnect the fans, there is zero noise. However, Link reports the pump is running at 3K RPM And coolant temperature as again 42 Degrees.The latter stays constant no matter the CPU / Package temperature.. When I change the pump speed on Link, the temperatures stay the same, constant... Is there any way I could test this out before going and buying a new AIO Cooler? Any suggestions, questions?
