Kraken liquid temp delayed?
There seems to be a delay with Kraken's liquid temp reported in Fan Control. When running a benchmark to stress the CPU, HWiNFO appears to display the Kraken liquid temp in real-time, where Fan Control appears delayed significantly.
Screenshot shows difference in reported Kraken liquid temp between HWiNFO and Fan Control after benchmark was closed and temp allowed to cool a little.
I am using "Controller (various third parties)" sensor to get Kraken liquid temp in Fan Control.
Hardware: NZXT Kraken Z73
Using Fan Control V224.
If any more info is needed, please let me know.
Code for the sensor value is here: https://github.com/LibreHardwareMonitor/LibreHardwareMonitor/blob/master/LibreHardwareMonitorLib/Hardware/Controller/Nzxt/KrakenV3.cs
Fan Control polls it 1 time per second.
Not too sure what exactly could cause the delay you are seeing. There is nothing fancy in the KrakenV3 code to delay the response.
I did a few more tests and noticed that the delay is about 2-3 minutes. However, if I have NZXT CAM running, the delay gets cut to about 30-60 seconds. Closing NZXT CAM again will return the 2-3 minute delay.
From the code for the sensor value, I see that the supported firmware is "5.7.0" for the NZXT Kraken Z3. My firmware reported in NZXT CAM is "5.11".
If this is something I should be reporting to LibreHardwareMonitor, please let me know.
Make sure you're not using the Kraken plugin -- it's not needed and may cause side-effects.
