    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST iCue help needed (can't configure Corsair H100i RGB PLATINUM Hydro Series High Performance CPU Cooler)

    Ok it’s definitely going back to PCS, as before I even started my efforts to install the missing pump head USB cable I encountered some issues playing Warzone earlier (audio and visual) but thought nothing of it and hoped a reboot would fix it, but have just gone to boot up and am faced with...

    I’m majorly disappointed I’ll be honest, am guessing they’ve let standards slip under pure weight of demand, something that if not corrected risks damaging reputation and long term success. Feel like sending it to an expert to rip it apart and do it properly, as it’ll nag away at me otherwise...

    Ok, cable tidy removed and can confirm that the RGB controller actually only has ports 1, 2 and 3 connected, so do we think it’s simply a case of connecting the pump head to the USB on the commander pro?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST iCue help needed (can't configure Corsair H100i RGB PLATINUM Hydro Series High Performance CPU Cooler)

    Is this perhaps the reason the CPU cooler fans sound like a Boeing 747, or am I just not used to how loud modern day higher end spec PC’s run at? Still awaiting a response from PCS, but whilst I’m prepared to try and fix it myself, am struggling to know where to start...if I knew how to build a...

    Hi Don, that's the Corsair VENGEANCE RGB PRO memory x 2 - with an additional 2 dummy RGB sticks as suggested by @AgentCooper) I'll be honest I haven't had much success with getting the motherboard RGB lighting to do anything yet, so that might be my next issue...but happy to just focus on...

    I can confirm 100% that it's not connected, just found the USB cable in the box! o_O Will let you know what PCS say, and may attempt to resolve it myself later...although might be a weekend job given I'll want to be taking my time and using some of the daylight to help me navigate the inner...

    Yeah that USB cable to the left simply isn’t there, you might be able to see that from my earlier pics...will see if they shipped it to me in the welcome pack, or simply omitted it altogether.

    Looking at YouTube installation videos for the H100i Plat, there’s no USB cable connected to the pump head unit end!! 🤷🏻‍♂️

    How do I downvote the PC Specialist installer...or whoever did the QC? 😉

    Really appreciate the detailed reply, and will pick up again tomorrow as that's a bigger job than I'd bargained for...can just about see the RGB controller although it's behind a load of cables/wires that I need to carefully navigate! ...am guessing this is the challenge with a pre-made PC; I'm...

    I've attached a photo of the iCue Commander Pro unit, but it's perhaps also worth mentioning that the Corsair H100i RGB PLATINUM Hydro Series High Performance CPU Cooler is illuminated (I'm guessing it's in the default 'rainbow' mode - see attached photo also)

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST iCue help needed (can't configure Corsair H100i RGB PLATINUM Hydro Series High Performance CPU Cooler)

    Hi guys, hoping someone can help me? I've recently received my shiny new PC (which I'm loving) but am a little overwhelmed with setting up iCue! Have somehow managed to get it to detect the 3 fans in the front of my CORSAIR OBSIDIAN SERIES™ 500D SE CASE (via lighting channel 1), but can't seem...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST My spec...you decide! 😎

    You've correctly identified my original desire, so that's good to know...will give those dummy sticks a look as the reality is I'm not sure I ever would have needed the 32GB. Who'd have thought a man of my age would be suckered in by coloured lights; I'm like a kid in a sweet shop!

    Didn't know that, so that's good..yeah I can't wait (but guess I'll have to given the delays on the GPUs) :cool:

    Noted, and I've reverted back to the originally suggested 2 x 8GB (as I can always upgrade later if needed).
