Hi all,
This is my first post so please be gentle
I purchased a H100i for my PC to replace my ageing H80.
Delivery was good and quick and installation was quick and painless.
I connected the Sata Cable to the H100i Sata connector but didn't (forgot) connect the the fan cable to the motherboard because I have a fan controller and wanted to set the Fan speeds manually (H100i is set to push pull).
I then turned my PC off because I wanted to do some cable management and noticed that I forgot to plug the H100i fan cable into the motherboard.
I should also mention that I disconnected the fans from the fan controller and connected them to the H100i directly via the included fan connectors.
I turned the machine on and all of a sudden that the Corsair Logo flashed green very quickly and disappeared and the fans stopped spinning after about 3 seconds.
Once in Windows the Corsair Commander software wont recognize the device and I can't do a manual firmware upgrade as it says device not connected.
I have now ordered a Noctua DH-14 and waiting for delivery and have written to Corsair for an RMA.
Can anyone suggest any alternative solutions?
For Info here are my specs:
Sabertooth Z77
i7 3770k @ 4.6GHZ 1.35V
ASUS GTX 670 Direct CUII
32GB Corsair Vengance (Will be stripped of heatsink to accomodate Noctua)
Win 7 64Bit
