What should I change then to fix whatever is happening? I just reinstalled iCue and the coolant temps are at like 40-43 Celsius on idle... which seems really high and is concerning seeing as room temp is like 25 or 26 Celsius... I also checked idle CPU temps before and after installing iCue and idle was about 30-40 Celsius without iCue, and it's 45-55 Celsius with iCue installed, closed even. This is all after I've tried to do a repair install as well. I feel like these aren't even good temps in their own way with the h100i v2. It could just be me but I see people having way better temps than me, could it be because I haven't re-applied thermal paste in a long time? Not sure if that's something that needs to be done often. Thanks.

Hi all. I have an H100i v2 cooler, and yesterday I just got a K95 RGP Platinum. I recently decided to get iCue to control the keyboard (didn't have it before since I didn't need it). My problem is - whenever I install iCue, it heats up my CPU by about 20-30c which causes my fans to turn on and off high speeds AGGRESSIVELY. I have a fan curve set to about 40% speed at 30-61c, but whenever I install iCue (even if it hasn't launched!), my fans go crazy and my CPU temps are unreasonably high. Restarts don't fix it, and the fans start off incredibly high straight off from startup. The only way to fix it is to completely uninstall iCue, and then restart the computer. Help would be greatly appreciated, I really would like to actually use the keyboard to its full functionality without insane fan speeds and high temps. Thanks.
