2016-01-05
hey everyone I'm Steve from gamers Nexis dotnet and today we're looking at the Corsair link 4.0 software update to their fan and component control suite and all the CES 2016 coverage is brought to you by I by powers revolt - a small form-factor gaming PC looking at the new corsair link 4.0 utility up until now link has been generally of sort of questionable stability or resource consumption as have most of these software utilities including cam and other options out there logitech and everyone's got their own tool for managing system components and the link tool is used specifically for managing i suffixed products like the h 100 i HX i paris pi and similar devices and now link 4.0 has an entirely new code base so system resource consumption is reportedly effectively negligible this is something will validate independently once we're back from CES but that is what we're told now the user interface is completely redesigned and much more user friendly you can go through the interface and first of all crashing if any of you had crashing issues is largely resolved on link 4.0 but as you tab through the interface you'll be able to see the specific temperature levels depicted visually on a case so you can actually change the case image of what's represented in course rate link if you change the image you can drag and drop the CPU temperature on to the CPU location GPU the temperature GPU location and so forth you can also create custom fan curves for all the PWM enabled fans anything connected to either the motherboard or a corsair i series product is controllable through this software so that's a quick look at link 4.0 we've got an article on the web already you can hit that in the description below for more information and again once we get back will validate test and do a proper write-up of the full utility it will become available in January so that's this month obviously for owners of relevant products who want to play around with the door if you just want to do general pw p WM fan control type stuff so that is coming out soon right now it's in beta or alpha and thank you for watching if you want to check out more coverage like this hit that link for the channel down below or check our patreon page for more support options and I'll see you all next time
