Tip: Filters can be cleaned with pressurized air or water. If you rinse your filter, ensure filters are fully dry before reinstalling.

• Does the polarity matter with the I/O panel’s power and reset header?
  No, only the LED headers.
• Who should I contact if I received my case damaged or one of the fans is no longer working?
  Please go to support.corsair.com and request an RMA so that we can replace the damaged part(s).

• Connect the long iCUE LINK cables (P) into the System Hub (M).

Upon power on and iCUE launch, you should see the 5000T LX RGB tile if everything is connected correctly and working as intended.

If your priority is getting your lighting set up quickly, by selecting a color palette from iCUE Murals iCUE will ‘paint’ across your devices and synchronize the color between them.

Play around with customizing this for some truly unique profiles including ones using video or photos as color sources.

If you need to modify the geometry or set up of your 5000T LX RGB, please select the Lighting Setup tab and either run the Setup Wizard or set your geometry manually using the drop down menus.

Instead of using the wizard, you can use the drop down to the left of the Setup Wizard to accomplish the same thing and set your quantity and length of strips.

Through this menu you will be able to connect legacy and 3rd party devices such as QL fans using their included RGB Hub instead of the Lighting Node or your favorite +5V ARGB devices.

Support for Legacy Devices and Generic 3rd Party Devices will drop at a later date for this adapter. The 3rd Party Device selection will output 204 LEDs worth of instruction so you can leverage the full power of the adapter, but will not be individually addressable via the GUI like the geometry-determined devices.

The Lighting Effects tab will allow you to control the color, animation, and speed of animation through its various settings.

By clicking the slider under 5000T LX RGB for Device Memory Mode, you can define your case’s hardware lighting mode that will display when there is no software/iCUE connection.

Any lighting setting made here will reflect in real time but will ONLY be displayed continuously when iCUE is closed or not running. If you would like to control the lighting or other customization when iCUE is in direct software mode, please use the Lighting Settings menu without the Device Memory Mode button checked.

When the iCUE LINK RGB Adapter is actively identifying as a 5000T LX RGB, iCUE provides a couple additional settings under the device for troubleshooting and customization.

Firstly, you can change the color of the case in the tile to best match your build. Secondly, it will highlight how many LEDs were detected on the strip so you can ensure the full strip or length of lights for whichever device you have connected is detected.

CORSAIR 5000T Series cases come with a 2-year warranty.
