Corsair HydroX products are damn good.

True story for someone, I use icue since many years on various systems and it happened one time. 10 minutes needed to solve it.

What about Asus Armoury crate and similar, I would consider that software far worse than icue

Armory Crate and icue mess up equally for me. MSI Dragon Center is a little less worse with Power color's DevilZone being the best so far next to GHub. (Yes Logitech has been good for me)

And to be fair, Corsair has the qmlrenderer issue that'll eat over 10GB vram with murals that's been going on for over two years. You can talk high quality products and fanboy all over them but it gets sad to watch when their software has more issues than anything else, even in a bios.

The original creme cookie was/is called hydrox. Oreo stole the idea and now Corsair stole the name.

I remember their premium customer service.. they pretty much told me to go fly a kite.

So I did.

Did you go to the beach to fly it, or the back yard?

I recently moved over to Corsairs CPU and GPU blocks on my system. I still have my EK one sitting downstairs, but it was only for AMD. The Corsair one works on both platforms. Couple of degrees difference between the two.

The GPU block is very easy and straightforward to install. It already comes with the pads and paste applied to the block. Just take the plastic coverings off and you are good to go.

Mine do not run off of iCue. I just use the motherboard for the RGB. As far as fan curves, I use Fan Control and have a mixed curve setup so which ever component is higher (GPU Hotspot or CPU (Tctl/Tdie)) will ramp up the fans.

I have never used a coolant temp sensor in any of my loops over the last 15 years or so.
