  1. I have the latest version of iCue software (ver. 4.11.274) and this issue still happens: encountered it today, all my sensors and dashboard graphs are lost again. I thought that the recent update fixed that, but no. Come on Corsair, this issue was reported already minimum in March 2021 and it is still present even in the updated version of iCue. It's a shame...
  2. Not necessarily. As long as the pump is a bit lower than the upper side of the radiator - it is absolutely fine. Watch this JayzTwoCents video where he comments on that Steve's (Gamers Nexus) video and explains why placing the radiator tubes up is also OK: [ame= ] [/ame]
  3. Same issue with the left mouse button: not registering some clicks and recently started to do sometimes double clicks when doing one time clicks. Using this mouse since the June 2020. Started to experience this issue in January 2021. Really disappointed with the fact that such cases keep massively happening. Didn’t expect that from Corsair. How is it possible for a premium gaming mouse to have such problems at all on a regular occasion? I really like this mouse, its design and the comfort of use. But this issue just ruins it all. Shame on you, Corsair, for keeping ignoring this issue.
  4. It went fine, no problems at all. I installed three LL120 White fans in front of the radiator (push) and the LL120 that came with the Corsair H150i Pro XT AIO cooler at the back of the radiator (pull). And I like this black and white contrast when looking at the inside of the case. From the outside of the case (Corsair Obsidian Series 500D RGB SE) it is all black anyways. So in total I have 9 fans: 6 in front, 2 above (graphics card AIO) and one rear fan. Well, and there is also of course the built-in fan on my Corsair RMi 1000W power supply, to be exact. The front fans are connected to the Corsair Commander PRO controller and the inner fans (the original ones) are connected to the H150i Pro XT AIO cooler (i.e. the cooler uses its own original black fans). The speeds are configured using the Corsair's iCUE software (ca. 200 RPM difference, which is absolutely OK, I used both the custom graph and the pre-build settings). I have overclocked my AMD Ryzen™ 9 3950X processor to 4.45 GHz on all 16 cores and the average idle temperatures are around 38 - 40 degrees Celsius. And this is with my custom "Silent" settings. I performed a stress test last year (all cores 100% using the "Stress CPU" functionality in CPU-Z software) and with the more aggressive "Extreme" fan settings (build-in settings in iCUE) the temperatures never went higher than 76 degrees Celsius. Btw after using my build for a while, I replaced the cooler's own thermal paste with the Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Thermal Paste, which also helped to reduce the CPU temperatures to the above mentioned values. So yes, such Push/Pull configuration works without problems, it's up to the one's preferences. See the attached files for illustration.
  5. I am experiencing the same issue with my Corsair K70 MK.2 RAPIDFIRE mechanical keyboard. Either up to 100% or to 0%, depending which way I scroll. Not every time it happens, but still - it should NEVER happen, NEVER! Just encountered this at 2:30 AM, volume went to 100%, hope my neighbors are OK. And this is actually not funny at all. Paying a premium price and having such an issue, which turned out to be not addressed for years. Quite disappointing...
  6. OK, thanks, I get your point. I will take the triple pack of LL120 RGB White as the closest RGB equivalent of the included ML120 PRO. Now I know that those 2200 RPM are really a lot, but at least I will be calm that the replacement RGB are not worse than the originally included set :biggrin: I got the info I needed, thanks for the help.
  7. Hi. I have recently finished building my first PC and I also have Corsair H150i Pro XT in a 500D SE case. I have installed it in front of the case. According to the specs of 500D SE case, you can mount two fans either 120ml or 140 ml on top of the case, and that plate above is meant just for that (see the "TECH SPECS" section here). I doubt that a 360mm radiator will nicely fit at the top of the case. Just measured mine with a ruler and it would definitely interfere with a rear and front fans, there is less space on top. As far as I can see, mounting the 360mm radiators in the front is most common way. In other words mounting a 360mm radiator in front is the best way with this 500D SE cases. Just unscrew the front plate, then using the provided long fan screws (see the PDF manual) attach the fans with the radiator to the plate and then install the plate with the radiator and fans back to the front of the case. Here is picture of my build as an illustration:
  8. @c-attack If you say that high speed fans are not critical for the 360mm coolers, them maybe the ML120 PRO RGB fans that have max 1600 RPM would be even better, as they are supposed to be more quite too?
  9. Thanks you for the reply. As I mentioned, I already have Commander Pro and RGB LED hub, aren't they enough? Still I will probably get the multi pack as it is available with a good price in our local stores.
  10. Hi. TL;DR Are there any pitfalls if I replace the ML120 PRO non-RGB fans that are included with H150i Pro XT cooler with LL120 RGB White fans (SKU: CO-9050091-WW)? --------------------- More details --------------------- I made my first PC build and I have the latest and greatest H150i Pro XT AIO cooler for my Ryzen 3950x processor. But it was a surprise for me that H150 Pro XT, although being the latest Corsair AIO, doesn't have RGB on the fans. So I would like to change the included ML120 PRO fans (non-RGB) with RGB fans. I have noticed that Corsair engineers prefer putting high velocity fans (high RPM) for AIO coolers. For H150i Pro XT the ML120 PRO fans has the maximum RPM 2400. So I need the closest RGB equivalent, that is why I would like to use LL120 RGB White fans (SKU: CO-9050091-WW). Why LL120 RGB White? Correct me if I am wrong, but seems these fans (White) are the fastest RGB fans among any fan type (like LL, ML, QL etc) by Corsair at the moment - 2200 RPM. So using them as a replacement I would get the best of two worlds: fast RPM and beautiful RGB - perfect combination. Oh, and I have Corsair Commander Pro with RGB LED hub that came with my Obsidian Series 500D SE case, so no problem with addressing the lack of RGB control in H150i Pro XT. Would appreciate the experienced Corsair enthusiasts pointing out some possible pitfalls (if any). Thanks.
