CORSAIR Offers Additional Cooling Components Now in White, Announces RGB Lighting Control for ASUS Aura Sync RGB Motherboards
CORSAIR today launched new versions of several popular cooling products in a white finish, and also said that the RGB lighting customization in CORSAIR iCUE software now extends to ASUS Aura Sync compatible motherboards.
White CORSAIR iCUE QL RGB Series fans, lit by a 34 RGB LEDs across four distinct light loops. For custom cooling enthusiasts seeking the lower temperatures and visuals of the CORSAIR Hydro X Series, the CORSAIR XC7 RGB CPU Water Block and XD5 RGB Pump/Reservoir Combo are now also available in white. Finally, a new small-form-factor Pump/Reservoir Combo, the Hydro X Series XD3 RGB, unlocks a new world of possibilities for installing Hydro X Series custom cooling in smaller, more compact cases.
CORSAIR iCUE QL RGB Series PWM fans launched in 2019 with 34 RGB LEDs illuminating each fan. Four light loops – two in front and two in back – put your lighting on display, whether the fan is used for intake or exhaust. Now available in white, QL RGB Series fans can be purchased in single or multi-fan kits of either 120mm or 140mm sizes. Multi-fan kits come bundled with a CORSAIR iCUE Lighting Node CORE RGB Lighting Controller to customize and synchronize the fans’ lighting through iCUE software.
The CORSAIR Hydro X Series is now available in a titanium matte white finish. Both the Hydro X Series XC7 RGB CPU Water Block and the XD5 RGB Pump/Reservoir Combo offer a new look for your next custom cooled system. The XC7 RGB CPU Water Block cools Intel LGA 115X and AMD AM4 processors with a nickel-plated copper cold plate and more than 60 micro-cooling fins, with 16 individually addressable RGB LEDs. The XD5 RGB Pump/Reservoir Combo powers your loop with a Xylem D5 PWM pump, built into a 330ml reservoir equipped with ten individually addressable RGB LEDs.
A new addition to the Hydro X Series also brings custom cooling to a new range of small-form-factor cases and builds – the XD3 RGB Pump/Reservoir Combo. The XD3 RGB features a Xylem DDC PWM pump and measures 114mm x 114mm x 58mm, allowing it to be installed in small-form-factor cases such as the CORSAIR 280X. 16 Individually addressable, iCUE-controlled RGB LEDs light up the XD3’s integrated 180ml reservoir, putting both your customizable lighting and coolant on display. Like its larger counterpart, the XD3 RGB includes an integrated temperature sensor that provides real-time coolant temperatures and enables automatic cooling control when paired with an iCUE Commander PRO (sold separately) and CORSAIR iCUE software.
The CORSAIR iCUE QL RGB Series, XC7 RGB CPU Water Block, XD5 RGB Pump/Reservoir Combo, and XD3 RGB Pump/Reservoir are available today.
The QL RGB Series is backed by a two-year warranty, while the XC7 RGB, XD5 RGB, and XD3 RGB, like all Hydro X Series products, are backed by a three-year warranty.
CORSAIR also announced that the RGB lighting customization in CORSAIR iCUE software now extends to ASUS Aura Sync compatible motherboards. With both iCUE and the latest version of ASUS’ Aura Sync Utility installed, users can now fully control the RGB lighting on their ASUS motherboard through iCUE, as well as synchronize lighting with every iCUE-compatible CORSAIR device throughout their setup, from high-performance DRAM and CPU coolers to keyboards and mice.
In addition to RGB lighting control, iCUE offers other features such as monitor system details such as temperatures, fan speeds, and voltages in real-time.
