Is it possible to display the fanspeed of H100i cooler

Post by ronnymees »

Hi,

I monitor all my computer stuff via Rainmeter.
The only thing I am missing is the fan speed of the fan's of my H100i CPU cooler.
Is this possible ? Is there software that monitors that and has a plugin for rainmeter ?

Probably it is. Although I don't use it, I think you have to use the SpeedFan plugin, along with the SpeedFan application. The example code on the above page of SpeedFan plugin, gives you a sample how to create a measure which returns the fan speed ([MeasureFanSpeed]).

Already tried speedfan. It doesn't read the fan speed of the fans controlled by the corsair cooling block H100i.

Have you tried HWiNFO? It supports Corsair Link judging by the following post in the HWiNFO forum:

Hi,

Also tried HWMonitor but it doesn't detect the H100i fans, only the speed of the pump but that is always at max rpm.

any other ideas ?

You could look at SIV ~ System Information Viewer... it added controls for Corsair Link in the latest version. :)

Haven't tried to incorporate SIV into a skin... :(

Okay,

Many thanks to eclectic-tech !

SIV is indeed the answer to displaying the FAN RPM from a H100i in rainmeter.

- Just add the SIV plugin to rainmeter.
- Get your sensor name via Sentest.exe ( runs in command prompt )
- Use like any normal measure

Problem Solved !

Trying to use this with Rainmeter version 4.0.0 r2746 and having issues. Is this version supported? I dropped the plugin into the plugin folder for rainmeter but when I try to create a measure with it it says that it cannot return the information. I have SIV64X running and the sentest works but I cannot get it to read the measure... Please help!

Was trying to do a simple measure to test it out... Based on reading your documentation the GPU Name is in the H sensor group and the key on my shows H\GPU-0-NAM do I leave the H\ off? If I do my rainmeter stops working and shuts down.

Rainmeter displays this... SIV.dll: Failed to Read value of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SIV.dll: Failed to Read value of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SIV.dll: Failed to Read

[Mse_SIV_GPU_Name]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=Plugins\SIV.dll
SivKey=H\GPU-0-NAM
SivSensor=H

I am getting the same error with V1.0.1.0, this doesn't happen with V1.0.0.0 of the plugin...

However, neither versions are working for me; they return a numeric value unrelated to SIV query parameters. :uhuh:

You might try contacting the plugin author concerning this issues on the SIV site...
