The latest ELITE range of CPU and GPU water blocks, pump/reservoir combo, and other accessories can now be controlled and personalized through iCUE software, which uses a single universal cable. This enables you to spend less time fidgeting with cables and more time putting together your PC worthy of showcasing.

With the use of a unified cable standard, you can now have complete control over any iCUE LINK Hydro X series components. Through the iCUE software, you can customize the RGB lighting and RPM control, as well as monitor the temperature. The latest Hydro X series components are now equipped with individual microcontrollers that manage and report their performance and temperature to the hub and iCUE software.

Let’s look at all the Hydro X components with iCUE LINK support.

CPU WATER BLOCKS

The iCUE LINK XC7 RGB ELITE CPU Water Block uses a Hexa-flow cooling engine with laminar flow tech to cool the entire CPU and its cores. It's designed for optimal performance during intense workloads or gaming sessions, making it the perfect choice for content creators and gamers.

A cold plate made of nickel-plated copper, with more than 120 micro-cooling fins that are highly efficient in drawing heat away from the processor. It also has a built-in temperature sensor that enables you to fine-tune cooling control. The iCUE LINK ELITE's cooling performance matches the mesmerizing visuals delivered by LEDs behind a transparent nylon flow chamber.

Socket Compatibility:

- Intel LGA 1700, 1200, 115X

- AMD AM5 & AM4

GPU WATER BLOCKS

iCUE LINK XG3 RGB ELITE

The iCUE LINK XG3 RGB HYBRID GPU Water Block is a great way to keep your graphics card cool. It is available in three different models that work with many different NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 40 & 30-Series and AMD RX 7900 XT(X) cards. The block has a hybrid design that cools your GPU and memory ICs, while a split flow manifold ensures even distribution of coolant over the copper cold plate. Additionally, a dedicated fan cools the circuit board and VRMs.

NOTE: For those who already own an iCUE XG7 RGB GPU Water Block, a simple GPU RGB Adapter will be launching soon that will integrate it into an iCUE LINK setup. Future XG7 GPU blocks will support iCUE LINK connectivity out of the box.

PUMP & RESERVOIR

iCUE LINK XD5 RGB ELITE

If you want to power your advanced custom cooling system, you should consider equipping it with the iCUE LINK XD5 RGB ELITE Pump/Reservoir Combo. This combo comes with a high-performance Xylem D5 pump and a 440ml transparent reservoir made of nylon. The reservoir is illuminated by 22 RGB LEDs, making it not only functional but also visually appealing.

With this combo, you can ensure that your cooling loop is always working efficiently and looks great at the same time.

The iCUE LINK XD5 RGB ELITE uses a rubberized mounting system to minimize pump vibration and comes with multiple G1/4” inlet ports to support diverse configurations. Like the iCUE Hydro X water blocks, it features an in-loop sensor to give you real-time coolant temperatures for smart control.

Those who want to match the XC7 ELITE LCD with a pump/res combo that has an LCD can look forward to a new version of the XD5 RGB ELITE with an LCD screen coming later this year.

Using iCUE LINK products can simplify your setup by eliminating the need for multiple lighting hubs, cable labeling, and the use of Y-splitters plugged into other Y-splitters. It's an enticing prospect, isn't it? Now that you know all the Hydro X components that have iCUE LINK support, you can start planning your custom water cooling build with CORSAIR's Custom Cooling Configurator.
