So, I will be getting the rtx 5070ti (shown above) soon, and since I bought a used prebuilt a year ago, I haven't got the 12whpwr cable.

My question is - will it be fine if I buy one of these cables (shown above) for my 750w psu (shown above)?

Edit: supposedly, the universal cable would work as long as there is a native 12whpwr slot in your psu

TL;DR: I turned a Corsair Xeneon Edge into a dedicated desk dashboard for Home Assistant, Spotify, Google Calendar, Todoist, Plex, etc.

I'm an Art Director by trade, and I built this over a few evenings using Cursor, mostly as a vibe-coding experiment.  It’s now something I can’t live without.

It’s a React + NextJS app that runs in Docker on an Ubuntu server.  The Xeneon Edge is connected to the machine and in the host OS simply runs Chromium in kiosk mode.

What it does… today

The dashboard brings together the things I interact with most throughout the day, plus a few other conveniences that I thought would be nice to have:

• Smart home controls via the Home Assistant API
• Weather, and thermostat via Environment Canada + Ecboee
• Google Calendar, with a meeting countdown overlay with snooze function :)
• Todoist tasks
• UniFi camera feeds
• Spotify remote control
• Plex and other media server notifications

As someone who listens to music all day, the Spotify integration was a must.  I decided to take things further and built an AI-powered enrichment layer with Claude that generates better artist bios, recommends similar artists, and suggests albums based on my listening habits. So far, it's honestly been producing better recommendations than Spotify itself.

To keep everything fast and inexpensive, almost everything is cached in Supabase after the first lookup. Artist metadata, recommendations, and album information are stored and reused, keeping loading times fast while keeping token usage minimal. 

The companion app

I also built a small companion app that sits in my mac’s Menu Bar and provides basic integration between the dashboard and the mac.  Currently it allows me to:

• Join Zoom or Teams meetings directly from upcoming Google Calendar events displayed on the dashboard
• Toggle my mic and camera, open the chat, initiate sharing my screen etc.
• Automatically switch to a Figma Launch Pad with shortcuts for my favourite plugins whenever Figma is active
• Drive context-aware pages based on what I'm doing on my Mac (still a work in progress)

The hardware

Months ago, I made a walnut desk shelf and put some standard t-track on the underside in a few places.  Once I realized the Xeneon had ¼-20 threads on the back, I designed and printed a bracket that allows it to float below my main display.  I love it when things work out… The Xeneon sits at the perfect spot, so its easy to reach and low enough that it's not a distraction while working.  Keeps the desk clear so I can slide stuff under it too.

I thought I’d share in hopes it provides inspiration to anyone wanting to accomplish something similar.  The barrier to entry was fairly low. 

Anyhow, happy to answer any questions or hear ideas for features you'd add.

Didn't like the basic basement fan options for the 5000D Frame as I will have HDD stored down below and the x2 120mm fans looked like an afterthought on the include basement devider so, made my own to house x3 140mm fans.

Sadly I can't find any of the official cold air intake kits locally and Corsair don't ship here (and they only use 120mm fans?), so I got creative and saved some money too while keeping the larger side glass and using 140mm fans.. Turns out it's a win, win, win!

Printed in Bambu matte PLA. The fans fix together so are very rigid and will help strengthen the 3D printed shell if it gets tempted to sag due to heat but,should be fine with all that cold air being pumped in!

Before anyone asks about the front of the case placement against the cupboard wall, there is a big vent right in front of it.

See last photo.

X2 PC's sit in my rack, both have large vents in front of each front panel for air intake, there are large vent holes in back of each shelf and a big 200mm inline fan/ducting that sucks hot air from cupboard (if I shut the door) and exhaust it out side the house so we don't cook ourselves in summer

12 fans, 2 360mm radiators, full custom loop, all fits within the FRAME 4000D!

First time I’ve built anything in 20 years, and boy, a lot has changed since the last time I built a PC!

I bought a Dell 16 Plus laptop in April of 2025 for college coursework. Core Ultra 9 288V, 32G ram, 2TB SSD, but unfortunately with integrated Arc graphics. This thing was way overkill for a college laptop, but I wanted to ensure I wouldn’t need to upgrade again anytime soon.

I found myself looking for a new game to play and discovered PoE, and realized I could run it on the laptop! Abysmal frame rates, and it ran hotter than hell, but it was playable. I found myself gaming on my laptop far more than I was on my Xbox Series X.

In December of 2025, I picked up an HP Omen 35L from Best Buy for $1200 on sale. It had a Ryzen 8700F and a 5070, with 32G of DDR5-6000 Kingston Fury Beast RGB. With everything rising in price, I thought it was a pretty good deal. PoE was certainly much faster on this machine than on the laptop!

With the release of Crimson Desert, the Omen was struggling. I could play at ~100 FPS, but I got some pretty severe drops and tearing at fairly high graphics settings.

Sometime in June of 2026, I listed my Halo Infinite edition Xbox Series X on the marketplace for $750, which is about $300 cheaper than comps have sold for on eBay. A guy hit me up and asked if I’d trade for a 5070 Ti. I asked a buddy of mine at work if he thought it was worth it and whether he thought I could sell my 5070 for $500; he told me he’d give me $500 for it, so I made the deal.

Threw the 5070 Ti in the Omen, and I was able to get better frame rates and more stability, but the CPU was obviously bottlenecking it at this point, and the card started running warm (76°-80°C), as did the 8700F (84°C was the hottest temp recorded.

I started searching for new case fans and came across Arctic’s new case and Corsair’s Air 5400. Initially, I planned to move the whole MoBo from the Omen into a new case, but I quickly realized that, between the proprietary PSU and non-standard pins on the HP Wolant board, I’d be better off with a new board. If I’m getting a new board, I may as well upgrade the CPU, right? Well, I'd better liquid cool it, too. Cue spiral.

Anyways, TLDR-I’ve spent way too much money to get to this point.

I named this one The Black Pearl. Since it's a primarily Corsair build, and a corsair was a privateer ship, I felt that naming it after the fictional fastest pirate ship was appropriate!

Hello guys! This is my1st ever post on reddit and my 2nd ever PC build. I've had these parts for basically 2-3 months now and have had some issues with what seems to be the AIO Pump and was wondering if someone could help me confirm if its the case before trying to return it and get a new one.

I've been noticing since day one some unprecedented noise coming from what looks like the central region of the Motherboard and maybe from the pump itself.
The AIO is the Corsair iCue Link Titan 360 RX and after some research, I ended up buying this as my fans were all from Corsair and wanted to try out the eco-hub daisy chain system it provides as the motherboard also has more ARGB than RGB headers. I don't see anybody having this particular issue but basically I'm getting a slow humming and sometimes a constant whining noise in unison with some minor vibration that is infuriatingly annoying. Its audible regardless of whatever temps the cpu has. It can be idle at 40-45c and still make the noise (though not as loud) but on 70c+ its definitely audible to the point where I would prefer using headphones. The noise doesn't happen as soon as the pc turns on but rather awhile after, kind of like when a car starts and then after its done heating up the engine, instead of quieting down, in this case, it starts with the low hum and then eventual whine when browsing/gaming or any other cpu focused task. It doesnt always happen, and on occasion, the whining actually stops even under full load at 70 ish temps too. Let me add that the fans are speed regulated to the AIO coolant and that is pretty much always around 30-40c regardless of Cpu speeds and temps (From what iCue tells me). I also believe its coming from the pump due to feeling small vibrations when it gives off those sounds, on the actual pump itself rather than on the GPU, Ram, or any of the fans around the whole case.

I've tried reapplying thermal paste (Initial time was Grizzly and second time was Corsair), removing the AIO to check if the liquid was moving inside the radiator and attempting to remove any possible air bubbles by manually putting the radiator higher up from the pump (when I disassembled it) - while also setting fans to max speed before removing and after inserting the AIO for this test. The temps are fine but the noise is sometimes unbearably annoying. I've checked fan curves and it didn't help at all, and pump fan speed is running on 2,800-2,900 RPM at all times which is said to be absolutely normal.

Am I missing something? Can this just be a flawed design for a marketing design said to be very silent but actually isn't? Is it a bad Pump? Should I return it as its under warranty or try my luck with another AIO?

I will list PC specs below in case of maybe any hardware incompatibility that you guys may see and also a video of the noise (which is quite hard to record as the microphone doesn't capture it as efficiently as I would've liked so definitely need to turn volume up to hear the whine).

Thanks once again!

I'm assuming it's the bearing but it came out if nowhere and only happens at high speeds so maybe something else?

Also, is there a way to shut this off through software, I didn't see it on icue, or is disconnecting only option while I get new one?

I love the iCUE hardware but the software… well we all know about the software.

Currently rocking a Jinx (Arcane) theme - obviously. Now I just need to replace my desk and redo all my cable management.

A highly customizable graph widget for Corsair dashboard LCD screens (e.g. Xeneon Edge) that plots up to three sensors at once, with a secondary axis for mixing sensor ranges and units, plus rolling statistics (min/max/average) for each sensor.

Features

• Up to three sensors — Primary and Secondary sensors each get their own axis (left/right); an optional third sensor (Additional) shares the legend and can be plotted against either existing axis. Each sensors value is drawn on the chart and the average is displayed as a dotted line across the chart.
• Dual axis support — Primary Sensor plots on the left axis, Secondary Sensor on the right, so you can graph sensors with very different ranges/units (e.g. temperature °C alongside fan RPM) on the same chart without one flattening the other.
• Per-sensor customization — Each sensor gets its own label override, color, and axis min/max override (leave blank to use sensible defaults based on sensor type/kind/units).
• Live legend with trend indicators — Each sensor's legend entry shows its current value, connection state, and a trend arrow/rate computed over a fixed 1-minute window, independent of the chart/statistics windows.
• Configurable chart window — Slider (1–30 minutes) controlling how much history is drawn on the graph.
• Configurable statistics window — Separate slider (1–30 minutes) controlling the rolling average/min/max shown in the statistics area, independent of the chart window.
• Full widget personalization — Text color, accent color, background color, background image, background brightness, glass blur, and background transparency, matching the look of other widgets in this repo.
• Graceful loading/empty states — Shows "Loading sensors…", "Select a sensor in the widget settings.", or "Sensor unavailable" as appropriate instead of a blank chart.

Usage

1. Download the widget from GitHub - Releases · DevBiker/iCUE-Widgets
2. Install the widget and add it to a supported dashboard LCD screen surface in iCUE.
3. Open the widget's settings and, under Widget Setup:
   • Pick a Primary Sensor (defaults to a temperature sensor). Optionally set its label, color, and min/max axis bounds.
   • Toggle Show Secondary Sensor to add a second sensor (defaults to load %) plotted on the right axis, with its own label/color/min/max.
   • Toggle Show Additional Sensor to add a third sensor (defaults to a fan sensor). It doesn't get its own axis — use Additional Sensor on Secondary Axis to choose whether it's plotted against the Primary or Secondary axis scale.
   • Adjust Chart Window and Statistics Window to control how much history is graphed vs. how much history the averages/min/max are computed over.
4. Under Widget Personalization, adjust text/accent/background colors, optionally set a background image, and tune brightness, glass blur, and transparency to match your theme.
5. Leave any sensor's Min/Max field blank to let the widget auto-select a reasonable axis range based on the sensor's type, kind, and units.

Comments

I like to look at multiple related sensors at the same time. Traditionally, I've done this by creating pretty involved dashboards - only to have iCUE mess up the layout if I don't open it maximized. Ugh.

But even then, the values are on different sensors. And what is the time range of the chart? Can I set that? And the chart's min/max ... what a source of confusion. It's constantly changing to you really can't tell where you are with just a glance at the output. And why can't it show me a trend? With all of the noise, calculating a trend can be pretty helpful.

So when I finally had some spare time, I sat down to see if I could create a widget that would show me more data AND allow me to easily compare different sensor values, even if they had vastly different ranges. Sensor Graph Plus is the result of that.

This is the initial release. Testing has been limited so far and focused on horizontal/landscape display orientation. Please submit an issue via GitHub if you encounter any problems.

Hello

Pretty much like the title. I am using the integrated one but it's short, and it goes way too close to the fans for taste.

For peace of mind, I would like to use another one, but i can't use the one that I got with the 5080 because there are the extra fans over the PSU, and it doesn't fit anyway.

Suggestions?

Upgraded my setup. Started with a 5080 then I noticed a Corsair sale 💀.

So I made my build in Deepcool Ch260 White Matx cases few months back.

Just saw Warthog Listed In My Country Now For $200 with fans.

Always liked The C70 cases in past but this New case is Looker.

Only Downside now is i have White AIO, PSU and Motherboard 😂

I’ve always wanted to do a Star Wars themed case mod, and this Corsair chassis felt like it was practically made for it!

I'm incredible proud of this as I'm all thumbs when it comes to fixing things, hand-weathered finish and details. I'm pretty sure it wont fit all, but as a Star Wars nerd it really feels great!

Just wanted to share!

This is the way.

Bonjour,

Il y a certaines choses à modifier dans le airflow de mon PC pour faire baisser les températures, mais pas un expert ahah. Concrètement, je cherche à savoir étape par étape ce que je dois modifier/acheter.
Le boîtier pour le moment je ne souhaite pas le changer il est neuf et rentre dans mon petit bureau sur mesure.

Merci par avance pour votre aide et conseils !

Pour parfaite information : le boîtier est un Corsair 4000D airflow

Hey all, I picked up a PC second hand a few months ago, and now I’m upgrading the mobo/CPU and want to know if I can keep the Corsair cooler. It’s an 1151 bracket (currently used on an i7-9700k) being upgraded to a 1700 (i5-13600kf). I know Corsair sell a retrofit kit that SHOULD do the job, but my googling hasn’t turned up an exact match for my unit and I don’t want to take it all apart and buy a special kit just to find out it doesn’t all fit together. All I know about is what it looks like, so I’ve attached a photo. The PC was all hooked up for the RGB fans, RAM etc when I got it but the cooling unit doesn’t show up on SignalRGB or anything, so I’m presuming that whatever model it is doesn’t have RGB if that helps.

I’ve never worked on a PC before, so I’m really clueless - if anyone can point me in the right direction (or has any other tips/advice for somebody doing this for the first time), I’d very much appreciate it :)
