![]() ![]() In addition, I picked up a commander core xt from Best Buy and if I do go the non mobo route, will this work?Ģ. Will I be able to change fans speeds/pump speeds using my MoBo? (asus rog hero viii wifi). 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. I did have a 24 pin connector "fry" one time on an old Antec Truepower Quattro 1200W PSU when an internal pin wasn't making good contact with the motherboard and I was massively overvolting/overclocking the CPU (i7-930).Hey all! I'm new to the whole Hydro X Series and I did have a few questions coming into it.ġ. I'd even clean up the SATA connector on the CoPro for good measure.Īs for frying your components, the short answer is no unless you are using a CableMod kit not compatible with your PSU. Please only do after first turning off the computer and completely unplugged it for the mains. A more prudent method would be to apply Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) on the joints (careful, it is very flammable but evaporates quickly) on the connectors you suspect are experiencing problems (do both ends of the cable). The simple act of unplugging/re-plugging usually "scratches" off some of the oxidation and provides a better contact. I've had the odd time (pre-Corsair equipment days) where I've had to unplug/re-plug a cable that had exhibited oxidation to get them to work. ![]() I live near the beach and as such, am subjected to salt air. ![]() an AX/HX series set when they should have bought a RX series kit) but that's usually more dramatic as the pin-out configuration on the PSU side may differ between the PSU series - see Corsair PSU cable compatibility for further details. The only other issue I've heard of is when people purchase the wrong kit (e.g. CaleMod on the whole are well made but there's a chance you have a cable with a less than perfect connection - things happen. My son has CableMod Pro (ModMesh) extensions on his HX1200i (and uses a couple of CableMod SATA extension cables) again without issues. I use a full CableMod (ModFlex) kit paired with an AX1200i and have 2 x CoPro's running off my system without any issues. and to reply to yout question i was using the sata cable by cablemod and not the extension. what do you recommend me to with the cablemod cables? should i throw them out and use the one that i got with the psu safer? and what have when u have a dry joint? this ssta cable the one that commander pro didnt run has many components connected to it? do u think i will fry them if i keep using it?, thank u again. I wanna thank you so much for replying to.me and the fact youre an electronic engineer. I suspect you'd see the CoPro in ICUE with just the USB cable as the SATA connection is likely only used to supply the +12V required by the fans. ![]() Your description of "can see it in ICUE but the fans are not spinning" and the fact that replacing the SATA cable fixed the problem leads me to the dry joint issue. Are you using CableMod extensions or direct (full) replacements? Extensions will by default add some resistance to the circuit but the voltage drop should be minimal and within the voltage tolerance of the CoPro.Ī more likely possibility would be a "dry joint" in the cable's connector (either the PSU or device end). ![]()
