Sorry if this is the wrong area for this question. But anyway, i have an h100i v2 installed and im trying to use corsair link. But link does not detect the two fans that are connected to the block through the fan spliter on the block. I can change their performance and they ramp up or down but i can not see their RPMs. I have an ASUS Rog Maximus VIII Hero Motherboard and i tried the asus xpert fan controller and it did not help my issue. Xpert started controlling the waterpump as if it were a fan and the led started flickering and such as the pump rpm was dropped. So i uninstalled it and im back to where i started. Does anybody have any idea how to fix CL or allow me to leave the pump at a constant voltage and just control the fans separate from the pump?

Indeed i did. But i have resolved the issue on my own. I had to disable q fan control in my motherboard BIOS. This stopped the motherboard from controlling the pump and allowed Corsair link to take over. Actually dropped my average temps at idle down about 10 degrees. Why this was such a difficult thing to discover is a mystery but to anybody having this issue now theres this to help solve the problem.
