Support for these features should be open and standard so everyone can make use of them... hope OpenPleb improves the situation... The ecosystem looks promising, but being vendor-locked, again is not that appealing imo
It is all magnetic Jay says. Being an OG PC user myself, it is amazing how we can say that these days. I remember having to keep magnets away from PCs and parts as they are very destructive to them. Yeah the cables are a huge issue. This product stack looks really cool!
This a very nice update from corsair. As some others mentioned, this would also be ideal for the non rgb stuff, if you have alot of fans in the system, being able to daisy chain them would be great!
Jay your icue link was not working with the aio daisy chained becquse you had 8 devices connected. Not because the aio pump was draining too much power. Its 7 devices per channel with a total of 14 devices for the hub.
Hey Jay, I also noticed (and confirmed from the product page) that each of their qx fans comes with an integrated temperature sensor in each fan. To a temp/noise/airflow nut like myself this is EXTREMELY exciting to see. Might want to mention this too. Great stuff!
I like the concept, I just hope they come out with a non-LED version for those of us who like a stealth build and/or want to save $$$.
I love the excited nerdiness Jay has when he's showing us live how easy it is to add/modify fans.
Definitely a game changer. Been using the Corsair iCue ecosystem for a little while, and for myself and my friends, they work great.
I personally use OpenRGB with a mixture of RGB fans/hubs/perphs, I dislike being bound to just one brand due to them not wanting you to use anything but their stuff.
Great content Jay! My issue is that as cool as this new tech is, it still has the "proprietary" problem meaning, no openness, no open source and no Linux support. So even if I had the money, I still could not support it because it's useless for me as a primary Linux user. I still applaud the effort of Corsair tho.
I always avoided corsair when it came to fans/argb and controllers and everything just because of the absolute mess it was. Now I might lean towards them just because of the simplicity and quality of it all. Love it! Thanks Jay and crew!
Would love to see an open-loop build with the new fans & hub mixed with some of the older Corsair stuff, like the JTC water block and a pump/res combo, and see how well they work together/what cable mess might still be needed for the older gear
Instead of using their own connectors and making the walled garden solution, they could have just utilized USB-C connector. Making each fan into a small USB-C device and hub. And then follow standards and made it compatible with everything. USB-C now supports higher voltages and power delivery, so 12v wouldn't be a problem. It can also carry data and display signals - no need to re-implement the wheel and make proprietary standards. Price wise would be the same, but flexibility would be unbeatable. Instead of going with their controllers, you could just put a USB-c hub into your computer and you'd be good to go. Also, there's no Linux version on official website for their software... So yeah, in theory it's good, but they could have made it much much better.
I have 10 Corsair argb fans in my current system. Pretty sure there are more cables run just for those than the entire rest of the system combined. It's a nightmare. If I ever wanted to change anything about them, I'd need to rip them all out to do it. This new system looks promising, but I'm planning to do a no rgb build next time. I just need a quiet box next to my desk that is filled with high quality components doing their job well. No lights, no noise, just performance.
Absolutely love it! Thx for sharing. Planning builds in the past was way too difficult relative to cables and connections pho sure
Finally its been done, that is so going on my new rig shopping list , modlar simplicity neat. More brands need to go this route.
Love the idea, and I think Corsair did a great job.
Really appreciate you making an in depth look at iCue Link, Jay, even with all the Computex hype that they put out and their shorts that showed off the product. I don't appreciate the price, but I can understand that this thing is overengineered, and the price is reflecting that, so I think it's up to the consumer to vote with their wallet. Granted, Corsair makes pretty good cooling solutions for PCs, so they're likely to receive a lot of support for a completely redesigned product. As for the layout, I'm pretty sure each branch from the control module only supports up to 7 devices, so you can have two triples of fans and an AIO on the front of the case from one lead, then a triple and a single coming from the other lead. There's also the option to use a push-pull configuration on the AIO for the front, but you lose out on having another set of fans in the second intake unless you buy a second control box (if you're loading the thing to bear). Anyway, I'm probably going to take a hard look at these for my next build, but with the cost being more than Lian Li's Uni fans, I'll have to weigh the options.
Glad to see they are updating. I have 10 Corsair RGB fans in my case and I am about to replace all of them with Lian Li 120 Infinity fans for just the reasons you mentioned. Also I'm not nuts about the iCue software. It keeps losing communication with the RGB on my Corsair AIO. Anyway, I'm anxious to see how this change works out.
Love it . I'm very happy to see Corsair finally make a better lighting setup. Definitely upgrading my PC with this .
