Hi,
Why not I
I basically was at the right place at the right time and asked the right person

Showed them the oc comparison between the heatkiller 4 pro and both optimus foundation a sigV2 blocks "mostly foundation" and was approved 24hrs later
Posted the results here as well
Optimus Foundation and Signature cpu water blocks testing

Looks as though not too many people have tested 2066 version of the ek magnitude yet so having a 9940x came in handy.

OK cool. Interested to see the results.

New update for iCUE 3.26.95 released today.

https://www.corsair.com/tw/en/downloads

When I tried updating from within iCUE or run the installer to upgrade from the previous version my H150i PRO Cooler was no longer detected after a restart.

I eventually had to uninstall iCUE and delete all Corsair folders first, then reinstall ICUE from scratch and recreate all of my previous settings.
Luckily I am dual booting so I just booted into my other Windows Install and took screenshots of all of my previous settings to configure the fresh install of iCUE.

Sorry about all the trouble you had, mine installed fine, I had no issues at all. Same cooler too H150i here also.

Most times iCUE updates from within the software just fine but a couple of times I've had to reinstall from scratch. Time to export my profile as I don't change my settings that often which will greatly help if this happens again.

Actually I had just restored a Macrium Image from 2 days prior then proceeded to update any software or make any other desired changes before creating a new backup Image when this happened, I also use AOMEI Backupper as a secondary backup solution should Macrium fail which is VERY VERY VERY... rare.
