so I just got this combo, looks great but a few questions if anyone can help.
 
- I have an i7700 and I'm seeing temps flux between 39 to 51 deg on idle or light use. It's jumping up/down 4+ degrees every second. Is this normal? I've never experienced these fluxes with air cooling or on my old i7 940
 
- I've checked the "match with gpu" for the lights in the flow controller app but it doesn't seem to sync the color cycle lights. Is this just a bug in the software currently?

    I think they are working on getting the rib lined up, so there may be a big in the clc software to where the ftw3 colors isn't attached to the clc.

    Yes, temp fluctuation is relatively normal as different cores are out under different loads.

    Also remember the intel core temps are not very accurate at lower temps and loads, been that way for a long time. At higher loads the temps should stabilize and be pretty close to each other.
