Long story short had to RMA my watercooler. So in the mean time I put in my stock Intel cpu fan that came with my i7-4790k. So does the corsair link program work with the stock cpu fan? Cause on corsair link it shows the cpu temp is 43C°. Is it a true read out? Also can I still game (Arkham Knight) with the stock fan? You response/experience is much appreciated!
 
Solution
Yes, you can game without any issue with the stock heatsink. It may just get a little loud when the CPU is under higher loads. You can double check the Corsair Link by downloading HWmonitor. Compare the results of both while you are idle and gaming.
