Corsair Link Method to Control Devices

[sargon666777]

Hello,

I love AIDA 64, and would prefer to use it for everything.  I have been looking for ways to get the data (or better yet control Corsair Link devices).  I had seen threads when searching around that it was believed a third party application could not retrieve Corsair Link information however I recently found an application (3rd party) that not only retrieves it, but allows you to control it.  So far it works great with the following devices:

AX1500i, H100i, and Corsair Commander Mini.. Thats all my corsair hardware so I can't test anything else. 

 

Is it possible this could help get Corsair Link information into AIDA 64?  It would be great to get it all in one place.

I'm afraid we're not interested in hacking into the Corsair Link framework, like what SIV does. It would just cause collisions and unexpected, potentially fatal issues, as described e.g. here:

We'll have to wait for the 2nd generation Link implementation that Corsair promised to deliver with full 3rd party applications support and a proper SDK.

We've implemented support for Corsair Link sensor devices (including Link Commander, Commander Mini, H80, H80i, H100, H100i, H100i GT, H110i, H110i GT, and various Corsair Link capable PSU models) in the latest AIDA64 Extreme beta update available at:

After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade.

Please note that since Corsair's own Corsair Link software is not synchronized with any other monitoring software, it is very important to make sure it is closed, and also that its background service is not running. It's best if you completely uninstall the Corsair Link software. Due to the special precautions required to use the new Corsair Link feature of AIDA64, it is disabled by default. You have to go to AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Stability, and enable (check) Corsair Link sensor support to activate the new feature.

Let us know how it works on your system. If you find any issues, please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Sensor Debug --> Corsair Link Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic, or attach the results as a TXT file to your post. You may need to enable status bar in AIDA64 / main menu / View first.
