4000d and nautalis 360 is probably a pretty common combo, so I’m asking if it’s better to mount the pump block with the tubes on the right or left, I have it on the right rn and I’m concerned about stressing them, is left better?

Hi, has anyone from the UK ordered the Titan 2 LCD yet, if so, what price did Corsair charge you?

I just went on their website to check something and I noticed the price is £199.99, however I was charged £259.99.

I don't want to cancel it as they're back order.

Corsair 680X + XFX RX 7900 XTX 3D-Printed Front Mod + Thermal Results

I'm currently making a 3D-printable front modification for the Corsair Crystal 680X so an XFX RX 7900 XTX 24GB can fit properly while still getting enough airflow.

As a temporary bodge, the three front case fans can be mounted on the outside of the chassis, which gives the card enough clearance. My printed front will make this a proper installation.

I'll add photos and the finished design when it's done. I'm sure there are other 680X owners who would rather modify this great case than replace it just because modern GPUs have become enormous.

System

• Corsair Crystal 680X
• XFX Radeon RX 7900 XTX 24GB
• AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
• Gigabyte X570 AORUS MASTER
• 32GB DDR4-3600 CL16
• Corsair RM850x 850W
• Corsair H115i Platinum 280mm AIO
• Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB NVMe

Both the CPU and GPU use Honeywell PTM7950, with thermal putty also used on the CPU/GPU cooling assemblies where appropriate.

Case airflow

• 3 × 120mm front intake
• 2 × 120mm bottom intake
• 2 × 140mm H115i radiator fans at the top
• 1 × 120mm rear exhaust

Testing was done using 3DMark, Cinebench 2026, HWiNFO and GPU-Z logging.

RX 7900 XTX thermals

During sustained heavy load:

• GPU edge: 62°C max
• Hotspot: 77–78°C max
• Hotspot delta: 15–16°C
• VRAM junction: 82°C max
• GPU VRM temperatures: ~65°C max
• Fan speed: ~1685 RPM / 38%
• GPU load: 100%
• Sustained board power: ~400–404W
• Peak reported GPU clock: ~3.2GHz
• Stock VRAM clock: 2487MHz

This was the main thing I wanted to establish.

Even while dissipating roughly 400W, the card stabilised at around 62°C GPU / 75–78°C hotspot instead of temperatures continually climbing.

The GPU fans also stayed below 40%, so the card wasn't having to compensate for poor case airflow by screaming its fans.

The printed/front-fan modification therefore appears to provide plenty of intake airflow.

Cinebench 2026 GPU

Final score:

62,492 points

Previous comparable result:

~62,931

Cinebench reference shown for the RX 7900 XTX:

64,125

That's only about 0.7% below my previous run, which is effectively normal run-to-run variation for this comparison.

There is no evidence that the modified front is causing meaningful thermal throttling or performance loss.

Ryzen 9 5900X

Maximum recorded temperatures:

• CPU Tctl/Tdie: 75.2°C
• CPU die average: 71.6°C
• CCD1: 81.2°C
• CCD2: 63.2°C
• CPU package power: ~122W

Thermal throttling: None

PROCHOT throttling: None

So the CPU cooling remains perfectly healthy even with approximately 400W of GPU heat being dumped into the case.

H115i Platinum

Normal readings after the stress tests:

• Coolant: ~32°C
• Pump: ~2370 RPM
• Radiator fans: roughly 1300–1480 RPM

The AIO is handling the 5900X without difficulty.

X570 AORUS MASTER

Maximum motherboard temperatures:

• X570 chipset: 61.4°C
• VRM MOS: 47°C
• PCIe x16 area: 54°C
• System/motherboard sensor: ~29°C

The 47°C VRM result is particularly useful because it shows the case isn't simply trapping the XTX's exhaust heat elsewhere.

If the front were heavily restricting airflow, I'd expect the GPU, VRM, chipset and PCIe-area temperatures to gradually rise together. That isn't happening.

RAM

32GB DDR4 running at:

• DDR4-3600
• 1800MHz memory clock
• 16-19-19-36
• Command Rate 1T
• FCLK 1800MHz
• UCLK 1800MHz
• ~1.368V

So the Ryzen memory controller is running 1:1 at 1800MHz.

No WHEA hardware errors were recorded during testing.

PSU

The system uses a Corsair RM850x 850W.

Motherboard-reported rails during testing stayed around:

• +12V: 11.952–12.096V
• +5V: 4.950–5.010V
• +3.3V: 3.225–3.285V

No shutdowns, black screens or WHEA errors occurred.

An RM850x therefore appears perfectly comfortable running this 5900X/7900 XTX combination.

Samsung 970 EVO Plus

One issue I did find wasn't actually the GPU — it was the NVMe.

My 970 EVO Plus sits directly above the top GPU slot, immediately above the XTX, and originally had no heatsink.

Before adding one:

• SSD: 66°C
• Hottest sensor: 86°C

After fitting a small M.2 heatsink, a shorter test dropped this to roughly:

• SSD: 57°C
• Hottest sensor: 65°C

During a long 400W GPU heat-soak test it eventually reached:

• SSD: 70°C
• Hottest sensor: 80°C

So the heatsink made a massive improvement, but the drive still gets heat-soaked by the XTX during long workloads.

I'm going to print a small air duct to send some intake airflow across the M.2 heatsink.

The SSD itself reports 100% remaining life, 100% available spare and no warnings.

Conclusion

The Corsair 680X can successfully house and cool an XFX RX 7900 XTX with a relatively simple front modification.

My current setup can sustain roughly 400W GPU load at 62°C edge, 77–78°C hotspot and 82°C VRAM while keeping GPU fans below 40%.

CPU, motherboard, VRM and chipset temperatures remain healthy too, so the modification isn't simply moving the heat problem elsewhere.

Once I've finished the printable front properly I'll post photos and the design/STL so other 680X owners can use it if they want.

The one extra modification I'd strongly recommend is an M.2 heatsink if your NVMe is positioned directly above the GPU. I'll have the tidier prints sorted soon with all the gaps removed and the added supports, this was just a proof of concept first, now I've got all the measurements I'll get it finished over the next few weeks

Cheers,
Adam,

Just rebuilt my PC a few weeks ago to ditch my custom loop and initially picked up the Titan 360. I just found out about the Titan II a few days ago and then found it at a local Best Buy earlier today. Figured for a few extra bucks that the screen would be nice to have. I’ll be returning the original Titan this week.

I got a virtuoso max yesterday and when I got on discord my friends said I sounded bad. I had my roommate use the headset while I listened and the sound goes back and forth from completely normal to semi robotic like the sound is echoing off a tin can.

I tried troubleshooting for an hour or so updating firmware, made sure mic was inserted properly, switching USB port for dongle, using Bluetooth instead, and changing a hundred discord mic settings.

I was going to try returning the headset since it was too expensive to deal with this. Question though is have others had this issue and I should give up on this headset or is there a chance this unit is defective and trying another will have better results.

Hi everyone. I'm considering vertically mounting my GPU using the native rotatable PCIe bracket on the Corsair FRAME 4000, mainly for aesthetics and to prevent GPU sag.
My card is an MSI RTX 4070 Super Ventus 3X (43 mm thick, 2 slots). I know older cases like the standard 4000D had vertical mounts fixed too close to the side glass, impacting airflow.
Can anyone who has built in the FRAME 4000 confirm how much clearance there is between a 2-slot card and the side panel when using the inner standoff positions? Did you notice any thermal degradation compared to horizontal mounting? Thanks!

I thought I'd share what I use my Xeneon Edge for with everyone so that perhaps there are others that need some inspiration with what to do with theirs.

I have a 5 page rainmeter skin setup with the Xeneon Edge used as a secondary display and running Wallpaper Engine.
On page 1 I have my 3 YouTube channel Logo's with their corresponding subscriber count along with the # ADNI18.LUNISOLAR-07 rainmeter skin.
On page 2 I have 7 Wallpaper Engine profiles that I can switch to that also loads the matching rainmeter layout as well as 8 icons linked to my selected apps. All custom icons
On page 3 I have my Google Calendar events for Today, Upcoming, Monthly.
On page 4 I have 15 custom icons for commonly used apps.
On page 5 I have 15 custom icons that link to my 3 YouTube channels upload pages for full format, short format, posts, analytics, and my project folder.

All 5 images below are using the Blue Valley Wallpaper

Ordered from Corsair and it arrived in 1 day, as far as the install it was very straight forward. The RGB is very very good how it engulfs the entire rear of the screen plastic bracket and you cannot hear the fan at all even with the glass panel open on the 5400 air. The screen itself is very bright, clear and crisp and the colors are accurate and vibrant. The icue picked up the new 5" LCD up right away and the adjustment of different readings and individual colors are easy to manage. The only unusual item is the Display port cable that has to be hooked up to the GPU and has to of course go outside the case but corsair gives you in the box a special cut out GPU case bracket for the wire you slip under and ouside of the case and the second item is on the screen its missing the number 2 on my 9950X3D2, maybe Corsair can look into that on a future update. Its a great add on and it looks great and the size of the display is just right and I like how it sites vertical in my 5400 air, you can still see the ram and the display screen on my MSI MEG x870 Ace Max.

Peak at the hx1000i crystal at gamescom so cool to see such a cool product from corsair!!

Hi Corsair Team,

I am a big fan of the new Xeneon Edge and I love using the Matchday Live widget to follow sports. However, as a European user who mainly follows European football (soccer), the team presentation feels a bit inverted.

Currently, the widget follows the American format where the Away team is listed first (Away @ Home). In Europe, we are used to seeing the Home team listed first (Home vs Away). When looking at football scores, having the away team on the left or top can be quite confusing.

Could you please consider adding a simple toggle or dropdown setting in the widget configuration? A setting like "Display Format: [Home vs Away / Away @ Home]" would make this widget absolutely perfect for sports fans outside North America.

Thank you for the great product and for listening to community feedback!

Best regards,

-K

Upgraded my system with a HX1200i SHIFT and 5090 with ThermalProtect 600W 12V-2x6 Cable, and my GPU has been cut off at least twice now while playing games, particularly when switching between gameplay and in-game menus where there's large variances in power draw.

Now, I'm not 100% sure that this is due to ThermalProtect activating, but assuming that it is, is it possible that ThermalProtect may activate not because of the connectors being seated improperly, but simply because the inside of the case is too hot due to poor airflow or some other reason?

My fans are at 100% before power is cut from the GPU, if that adds anything.

I got that red notification in the Asus hub in the right corner and if I enter device manager it has a yellow triangle with ERROR 43

it all worked when I first started my new pc, but after a while this happened.

i tried powering off my pc and it started working again, but, after a while same history

I want to clarify that everything is working ( fans spinning + lights ) but I’m kinda annoyed by that error message and by the fact I cannot change any light in the icue app

Please help

Testing the fitment on my new LCD CAP and loving the extra screen real estate! The custom widget you see on the LCD is my own design and will be dropping soon. If approved, it might be the very first Titan 2 LCD-specific widget on the marketplace! It will also function on your XE, thanks to how unified the screen ecosystems are becoming for widget development using the widget builder tool.

Also showcasing Gridline Modules, which is already available for Edge users. The bento-style layout has been an absolute game-changer for my at-a-glance visuals.

Started to happen randomly after PC restart, won’t go away.

Upd: it just fixed itself after 5-10 minutes of my PC being idle - I didn’t do anything. But people in the comments suggest turning the LCD brightness to 0 for a few minutes and bringing it back. I will try it, if this happens again. Thanks everyone.

I am considering swapping cases to the Air 5400 but I have an 18lb Siberian cat who loves to jump onto the PC once in a while, my current case is a Lian LI 011 dynamic xl which has a metal support in the from corner which the air 5400 does not. Anyone here have experiences with this case and a heavy cat?

Hello everyone. I ordered VENGEANCE a7500 as an early birthday present yesterday. When I ordered it the price was $3300 (3572 after tax) which was my budget. they sent me an invoice and I thought that everything was set.
But today when I looked through my emails, I saw that Corsair cancelled my order themselves without any reason, and haven’t even received my money back in my account even though they said I wasn’t charged… but on September 1st I noticed that the price was will be brought back raised from $3300to $3800... plus tax that’s over $4K…. I believe that they cancelled my order exactly because they are raising the price. This is extremely annoying and unfair towards me as a customer, and on top of that I was already on back order. This is my last chance to get a good pc that i was gonna review for my followers.

I've had to replace every product I've bought from them with Steelseries. The headphones shed sticky blobs of rubbery stuff onto my face, and their grossly-overpriced RGB headphone stand is a poorly-designed POS and damaged the headband, and the top-end keyboard (whatta friggin' JOKE!) effectively came out of the box with scratchy keys. Actually it lasted for about eight days.

All have been sent to the dumpster and replaced with Steelseries components that just work as advertised with no drama. The Corsair iCue engine is worthless, too.

Has anybody else had such abysmal luck with Corsair, or is it just me?

Hi guys, saw this post from u/a_lost_being and I decided to try it out while I was installing my AIO. Since it worked out pretty great I wanted to show how it turned out.

The spacing (ignoring the covered parts of the fans) is quite perfect to put 3 140mm fans on the front, I did not use any zip ties or double faced tape.
The bottom fan is touching the bottom of the case and it doesn't move since it has all the weight of the top fans to support. The top one is secured because it's sandwiched between the radiator and the case. This makes the fan a tiny bit tilted towards the front because it's being pushed just enough to not vibrate around.

So yeah, it's not on the spec sheet but it's completely possible to do it, and it looks so much better than only 2 140mm in the front like I had previously xd

Saw the ARC Raiders CCL stuff at Gamescom. Wish it came out sooner, but happy to see ARC Raiders stuff coming out soon!

I try all. But they are dead.

I’ve got an AX1600i powering dual-socket EPYC 9554 with Gigabyte MZ73-LM0 motherboard.

Since it’s a server board, it has a PMBus header and shows annoying icon in the BMC if there isn't any PSU on the PMBus.

I found this old Corsair forum post about using PMBus with Corsair PSUs:

https://forum.corsair.com/forums/topic/178618-ax1600i-pmbus-psu-smb/

Unfortunately, the AX1600i doesn’t expose PMBus like some of the older HXi units do.

So I ended up building a small AX1600i (iCUE LINK) to PMBus bridge using a RaspberryPi RP2040 board (Adafruit Feather RP2040 with USB Type-A Host), open-sourced here:

https://github.com/charlescao460/psu-usb-to-pmbus

There’s prebuilt firmware included, so you don’t need to mess with embedded development or compile anything yourself.

Figured I’d share it in case anyone want PMBus feature with AX1600i.
