Hey, I've had...and managed to fix issues with the pump/led not showing on corsair link....
however for some reason when i change the fan speeds or pump via corsair link....nothing happens.
I have two noctuas in the front of my r4 case connected via 4 pin motherboard slots and two spf120 quiet fans on my rad...just wondering if im ballsing something up? Everything seems to be running on full speed all the time.
There is a 3 speed fan controller on the front of my fractal define r4 case also that i could use....however the cables are 3 pin female connectors....is there any way to connect a 4 pin fan to these? Adapters etc?

Any help is much appreciated.

The cooling unit should be powered by a sata cable, your sp120's should be connected directly to the cooling unit. There is a 3-pin fan cable that should go to cpu_fan header. You could install the Noctuas to either the cooling unit fan hub or motherboard or the 3speed case fan controller. If you use the hub, your fans will be monitored by the Clink, but not sure how much control you'll have. If installed to motherboard, use a splitter to have synchronous control of both via a single header. These fans will be bios controlled unless you have other fan control software installed. If you use the 3speed fan controller and it is powered directly via psu, you will have 0 monitoring but direct physical control via switch. If the switch is powered by a fan header, you will have the same monitoring as with direct mobo connection, the fans will be bios controlled (just set to preferred max duty cycle) and also physically controlled via switch

Right thanks. i have the cooling unit plugged in, its powered up and working and the two sp120s are plugged into the cooling unit.
Its just when i change the settings in clink nothing changes, everything just runs on full all the time. ive updated c link to most recent version too.

And you have both the 3 pin connector to cpu_fan and USB cables mounted correctly?

yes as far as i can see, just double checked all the connections are good, as i say it all works, apart from being able to slow down/ control fan speeds.

In bios, is all USB headers enabled and cpu_fan control set for max duty?
