yea I know what you mean, my current X99 rig is decked out with water cooling also, love the stuff and low profile fan noise is the best.. but like you, I'm tempted to just pull out all the water cooling and go back to air, makes for a much easier time trouble shooting or just want to change something for testing purposes.. Quoted Right now I have my system at bear metal (clean windows with only SP1 and no software at all) not even antivirus or software firewall. I have also installed only M/B C...
I have been plagued with sleep problems as far back as I can remember.. I just gave up and just eat the extra electricity cost I have 4 systems that I use pretty much 24/7 3rd Gen Sandy Bridge, gigabye Z68 board, 980Ti, Win 7, my primary file server and CPU/GPU work farm, also serves as when I need to run tests on IIS.. doesn't like to wake up if "suspend hard disks" is enabled, Possibly due to the LSI Megaraid card that's in there.. if turn off hard disks is "OFF", appears fine but randomly, so...
me and shoggy did the whole back and forth email thing for a while before I purchased a long time ago, basically the conclusion was biocide was not needed as "glycol" (I think that was what he said, don't quote me) pretty much kills anything inside. I used distilled and silver coils before and it started peeling off the nickel on my AQ blocks, I msg'd shoggy about it and in the end, decided to try out the DP Ultra. In your case, I firmly believe in "if it's not broken, don't fix it".. stick with...
I give a +1 DP Ultra Clear, I just recently replaced all my fluids in a dual loop, it's been running for 2 years, in that time there was almost 2 months where I was away and computer was off, 24/7 usage otherwise When I changed the liquid, smelled fine and looks fine, using Primoflex LRT tubing and no plasticiser what so ever .. nickel blocks (all EKWB) looks fine apart from the CPU inlet area where the nickel is beginning to flake off a little but that's more due to the water moving and will ev...
I dont mind the new model, 62cents/month is less than a starbucks coffee, if this will help all my stuff and beleive me, I have a lot, all working for the years to come, it's all good.. and that new networking feature, I'm very excited to see this come. This may sound a bit like fanboy talk, but AC is one of those companies that has the best support, they have always helped me get things going, be it a simple question regarding kyroconnect, coolant usage or help setting up a Aquaero 5XT and 6 PA...
on top of what Infoseeker said, I'll also add it's probably a bad idea to daisy chain USB hubs, simply put, you are adding more traffic to the hub that's directly connected to the MB header.. Chance are you wont ever use the bandwidth to the fullest, unless you are plugging in USB drives or BT/Wifi devices, USB sometimes just loves to throw temper tantrums and make your computer behave erratically. I only did this with the external USB3 hub to have better access when I need to plug in my sandisk...
I recall there was mention of this way back when I first got my AQ 5, when it was first released. I would love this function Kinda implement it like server / client mode, where client Aquasuite can just connect to server and show what I have going on now, that'd be awesome...
looking at the spec of my Asus Rampage V Extreme, it comes with (Intel X99) and a ASMedia chip, althought many of you use older X79, socket 115x, etc.. I think the issue may be all the same I have had a few weird problems with this board since day 1, mostly it hangs during windows loading screen randomly, I'd say maybe 1/5 boots, using Win 7 x64, always chocked it down to USB related and have tried numerous methods to resolve this issue over the past year. I been working on rigs for quite a whil...
I bought the clear double protect ultra on Feb, 2015.. redid my loop on Dec 15, 2015.. The canister is stored away from sunlight in room temperature 25-30c depending on season, the fluid in the loop & in the canister is still good.. on a side note, I recall Sven mentioning as long as it doesn't smell funny, it's fine.. I don't have any fancy tools to test my liquid, so I rely purely on smell and color (clear)
hi, if you are referring to the 4 screws on each corner of the GPU chip, 2 screws is from the water block, 2 screws is from the back plate. When you look at the instruction manual, If I remember correctly, 3 screws from the water block remains while the rest are replaced after you install the back plate.
You can connect all 4 devices to your AQ6 XT, first you connect to the USB then assign each device a unique aquabus address, then you disconnect the USB cable and attach it via the aquabus cable, Aquaero will do the recognize it after. This can be achieved via daisy chaining them or using Y cables.
Hi, according to this product page: This is your pump right? http://www.aquacomputer.de/aquastream-xt.html Your pumps does include the aquabus port, so you can connect it via USB or Aquabus (Y cable or daisychain, whichever is convenient and looks cleaner).. as I said, I don't have this pump so I'm not entirely sure, but on my Aquasuite, there is a option there although grayed out. I assume it should show up under this page? others will have to confirm that has this pump. MPS items connected via...
I have checked everywhere and unable to find a PCIE bracket replacement, let alone find one that doesn't have that bend on the end, This will not effect users that are using 2 way SLI and don't have them spaced right next to each other, but for users that are using 3 way, 4 way, it could pose a problem if backplates are installed. I have also looked at a few other OEM branded reference GTX980ti and it looks like they all use the same bracket, I think Zotac 980ti AMP may be listed as "reference" ...
Hi Sven, for your reference since your mail form doesnt allow attachment. Ran into another snag, the chokes or the VRM on it appears to be too big, causing the card to bow by about 1mm according to the ruler, seems ok with the backplates installed but the screws towards the rear of the card is very loose. Please Advise.. Thx
hi, The setup process just looks intimidating, it took me 4 weeks and a lot of help from the community to even understand what I needed to buy, it grew from that, but once you figure out what's what, it's pretty straight forward. As for the pumps, you either use the Aquabus or USB, not both, to even add more confusion, remember you can only (IIRC) attach up to 4 max MPS devices via Aquabus, MPS are not Aquabus devices, well sort of, it's separate, MPS devices uses the 4th pin to receive power wh...
hi, not sure what your question is but let me try anyways since you mentioned dual loop and only having 1 USB header.. Im using AQ5 XT, 6 PA3, dual loops, M10 + Pedestal, about 22 gentle typhoon fans.. AQ5 XT channel 1 to 4 controls all the fans in the pedestal, the radiators in the pedestal are for my tri SLI GPU's PA or fan channel 5 and 6 controls fans on PSU side and CPU side. PA or fan channel 7, 8, 9 and 10 use to control the voltage on my D5 pumps, but since then I have upgraded to Aquaco...
hey guys, just a heads up, I ran into a bit of a small snag when getting the waterblock and backplate installed. The 2 Pin power connector "unused", looks like it may be the power connector for the reference cooler GTX LED logo (I assume that is what its for) , for some reason its bigger then usual compared to the reference GTX980, not allowing the block to fit making the board bow a little bit when installed, using a pair of pliers I gently tugged and pulled it off.. See below, pardon the pictu...
Greetings... quick question regarding the 980ti plate and block, I noticed the block is for reference Titan X and 980 TI, but the plate only mentions Titan X, was wondering if the back plates are compatible also? Thanks kryographics for GTX TITAN X / GTX 980 Ti acrylic glass edition, nickel plated version http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info.php?products_id=3271 Back plate for kryographics GTX TITAN X, active XCS http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=3300
oh snap.. I didnt know the waterblock fit on the heatsink, I assumed that the product page said incompatible with AQ6, that it wasnt compatible at all, never thought it'd be compatible after installing the heatsink.. Such a Noob I am... Thanks Guys
Looks like everything worked out, I used some M3 spacers that I had laying around, its around 1mm thick, since the PA3 board is now pushed back a bit from the front plate, the light is not inside the hole, which worked out for the better as that blue LED light is OMG BRIGHT.... and I'm not exaggerating I have used the spacers here, for those who has PA2 and wants to up to PA3.. Out with the OLD... In with the new... and a little something absolutely not thread related but hey, Its sexy and I wan...
Quoted from "Shoggy" 4.) Yes, they are compatible but only if you do not use the passive heatsink for the poweradjust 3. Hi Sven, Thanks for the info.. Just couple more questions. Is there a faceplate/bracket in the works for use with the PA3 and the heatsinks? I already bought the heat sinks and installed them then realizing the screws don't work, only then came to the site product page showing that it was incompatible.. I had the PA2 faceplate for like 3 years already so that's just a error o...
have a few questions.. 1) I recall having to use (legacy) aquasuite software 4.72.00 back then to change the channels on my PA2 (all 6 of them) via USB, then disconnect the USB and connect it via Aquabus to the Aquaero for it to be recognized properly. (a) Will I be able to do this with the new aquasuite 2014 v2.3 and PA3? also will I have to connect them individually to the USB port first to configure them then disconnect afterwards? I am using multiple PA3 (2)I am moving from Aquaero 5 XT to A...
Was working fine, I have already tried the following. Run the pump on another PA2 channel, it's working so it's not the pump.. Unplugged the pump from that PA2 and plugged in a fan, fan does not spin. The red light on the PA2 is lit up. Anything else I can do or should I RMA? also what is the warranty period on this? Thanks.
I'm running a Aquaero 5 XT and 6 PA2, attached to dual loop, quad AC D5 and more cables then a bowl of spaghetti, prior to doing all this, I did about 2 weeks worth of research and asked shoggy and another member of this community about 50 questions, Aquaero is a very advanced product and once running, it just knocks the socks off from anything that is out there at the moment, just take a step back, putting a rig together of this magnitude is not something that can be rushed into, ask the commun...
Quoted from "sebastian" The Bugfix is online. We have deactivated the aquabus for some tests in the firmware 1029. But we have not enabled in the release version. Reload the aquasuite and install the new 1030 firmware. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks, no worries, the fans and pumps that were connected to them were still running, just couldn't monitor them from Aquasuite, accidents happen.. Thanks for the quick follow up though, all is working now
Quoted from "sebastian" Tomorrow we release a bugfix for the aquabus problem. The delivery of version 2013-2 is stopped. Thx Sebastian, will wait till tomorrow and update then.
Anyone else having this issue? I tried unplugging the computer from the power completely to let everything cold boot, still nothing. It was all there when I was using 2012 RC6 previously. Thanks...
Think I narrowed down the memory / CPU hog issue to be in the Data Log area of Aquasuite, I disabled it completely by just deleting everything and leaving the settings page blank, been running 3 days 22 Hours now and aquasuite.exe is using 150mb give or take 500k, it fluctuates, AquaComputerService using only 10mb give or take.. Hope this helps until they find the memory issue and fine tune it abit more..
Quoted from "Shoggy" As said, you can not have six mps based aquabus devices. If you connect four pumps you could connect two of the normal flow sensor: #1 on the regular 3-pin connector and #2 on fan channel 1 if you change its configuration to act as a header for a flow sensor. The aquabus is a real bus system so it does not matter how you connect everything. The maximum is 8x poweradjust 2, 4x mps based controllers (D5 pump, flow sensor, pressure sensor), 2x aquastream XT, 2x multiswitch, 1x...
Hi Shoggy, Was thinking of upgrading my Aquaero setup myself, mind if I ask you? For Reference: I'm running a XT unit with 6 PA2 The temperature pins on the flow meter and the pump, it that a built in sensor or you have to attach a temp probe to it and it then relays to the Aquaero via aquabus? Here is a scenario that I thought of, and your input, Would this work? connect pumps power to PA2, connect Aquabus, monitor RPM + control power via speed regulator of the pump through Aquasuite? I can dai...
I asked the same question a long while back, this was the reply I got. The rest is just good FYI... Quoted Aquearo 1-4 channel 19.8W / 1.65A per channel combined 60w / 5A Power Adjust 2 5-10 channel 25w / 2.08A per channel Temperature Threshold: 85c - 95c Shoggy wrote: --------------------------------- I don't know the exact temperatures. Somewhere around 85°C it set the power to 100% and somewhere around 95°C it should turn off. Each channel on the aquaero can take a load of 19,8W @ 12V while t...
Quoted from "scottmuir424" im having similiar issues, got the aquaero 5 lt running aquasuite 2012 beta14 fan 3 is reading 100% with zero revolutions yet ive got a fan attached to it, if i go into the fans i can adjust fan speed voltage etc and it slows the fan down accordingly just no display of it in the display page and ideas please as its pretty frustating. This appears to be a different problem then the subject problem.. on a side note, have you connected the same fan that is not showing th...
hello... Shoggy can you confirm if your dev team is aware of this issue and a fix is in the works? Been reoccurring a lot the past 2 week or so, it's really random.. The red arrows points to connections that are actually on the 6x PA2
Yep, looks like your thermal pads are the cause of the problem.. I use non conductive Arctic Silver Ceramic on my ram chips, Arctic Silver 5 for the GPU, and the thermal tape that was included for my VRM's, I don't recall what size they were tho, I just used what came with my AquagraFX blocks.
I reported this back in Beta 13, however it looks like it has not been fixed as of Beta 14.. The problem is only the PA2 modules, they are still working as intended, eg; if you have it set to 70% or 9v, it will still continue to do so, you just don't see them on the Aquaero, if you power down your system (power down, not restart) and cold boot it up, Aquaero will pick up the PA2 again.
Polling on a Logitech G500 is 500mhz, I assume their G700 & G9x model is also as it uses the same software.. I didn't have any problem with this and my XT, however... I did have some luck with a Razer Mamba and a XT on a friends rig, You can try moving your USB mouse to another port, it's probable that the high poll rate driver is only affecting a specific port (or paired).. I connected all his peripherals to USB ports that I was sure that is controlled via the NEC chipset, while the XT was cont...
I had this problem with my pump... Was wondering, are you using a pump with no RPM sensor like a D5? If that is the case, the PA self "safety" feature kicks in if it detects 0rpm and keeps the output at 100%.. What you need to do is use the old aquasuite and "uncheck" "active when no speed signal is measured"
I actually think their support is pretty good, every issue that came up that required a RMA, they stood up to bat, no questions asked... and as far as I can tell, the people doing the RMA never return to the forum and mentioned the end result, which can only lead me to conclude the problem is fixed.. probably something to the effect of ... "for every one dissatisfied customer, there are 99 of them that has a fully functional unit and they don't come to forums to share about it".. I for one had t...
Its my first time hearing it literally going up in smoke, I suggest getting a RMA for it and sending it back so they can figure out what went wrong... Based off the info you provided, it should be going no where near the maximum load, I have attached 6 GT15's on one of the channel (PA2) and it's pulling 0.5A at 7.2v.. I also have 6 GT15 attached to the AQ channels 1-2 itself, again 7v and its pulling only 0.26A, even if you did not point some passive cooling for it, it should automatically switc...
hello there.. It has been done, 2x D5 and 6 fans on the aquaero w/ waterblock.. search post by phatboy69, he did it on his setup..
Hello, apart from what Boris said, I just want to add.. The Water block vs Heat Sink difference is night and day, I highly suggest purchasing that. As martin said, this is a "geek dream come true product"... having the water block allows me to push 5v 800-900rpm on my fans while remaining at less than 50c on the VRM. On another note, what version AIDA64 are you using? I tried the "shared memory" setting and I don't see my CPU in the software controller section, I see 4 settings there but they ar...
I don't have this problem, I'm using 18 fans and 4 D5's accross the XT and 6 PA2.. Do you have the RPM wire from multiple fans attached to the connector? You need to sever the RPM wire from all the fans but one, and connect only that to the Aquaero. Try using the Constant Value in the controller menu and set that to 100%, in the Fans menu, set it to the voltage you want and see if your problem goes away.. This is the most direct simplest method to running the fans, if you are still having a prob...
eh sorry, misinformation.. I keep getting the 4 pin PWM mixed up with the 3 pin..
lol yea I tried fixing that but I gave up after a couple minutes.. I understand the device was meant to be disabled, but it seems the time you invested on trying to fix the darn thing, it's just not worth it to bother.. I would rather just send it back and let them deal with it... well at least they won't pull a "you broke it during dismantling so we won't RMA your Aquaero"... I love AC customer service..

[quote='aphasia',index.php?page=Thread&postID=1368415#post1368415][size=10]bump shoggy, have sent you a PM requesting details on RMA/cross-shipping procedure for my faulty aquaero 5XT.[/size][/quote]Can you just send it back to AC and let them deal with it considering what a PITA i...
Quoted from "hrmes" I am trying to decide which Aquaero to get, the XT or PRO version. I would like to ask if the PRO version has the same heatsink that the XT version has. Don't quote me on this, but if I remember correctly, the Pro does not come with a heat sink and the XT version does.. However; with that said, I highly recommend the water block for the AQ, the difference is night and day. Quoted from "hrmes" P.S. And please, build Aquaero 5 with black faceplates as default. Virtually every ...
Quoted from "Phatboy69" Ok now ive seen a screen shot I can see you are talking about your pumps being on PA2s, they are not on the A5. What that means is that as I mentioned above you need to use aquasuite 4.7.2 direct USB to each PA2 and turn off a check box If you want non-rpm devices to have variable power. You need to uncheck startup boost parameter "active when no speed signal is measured". The PA2 defaults to 100% when no RPM signal is present as a failsafe. You need to uncheck this box ...
Quoted from "Phatboy69" Yes it does work. Are you using the Aquaero or a slave Poweradjust2? I have 2 D5s without tach working fine. In know the Poweradjust2 needs a setting turned off which you cant do with the new Aquasuite software, you have to use the old version with direct USB. I think there is a setting for the Aquaero too but I dont have mine connected to USB at the moment so I cant tell you. I will try this... Thanks.. Quoted from "Phatboy69" I just checked mine, and the only thing I c...
please read this and follow steps 1-5.. fully loaded AQ5 XT and PA2 (x6)
Hello fellow AC forum browsers.. as per topic "Aquaero can voltage regulate D5 without tach sensor?"... I was wondering since I can't seem to get it to work, it either works at 0v, or 12v, can't get it to switch to 7v... I think it may be looking for a tach sensor which my D5 does not have.. Anyone manage to get a D5 running with voltage regulation without a rpm sensor? Thanks..
