I just had to stop by and comment on this - I had the EXACT SAME ISSUE on not one, but two Corsair ONE systems! I had to replace the RAM because one of the modules failed. RAM modules typically NEVER fails, so this is a very strange problem to encounter
Sorry to hear that. I also have never experienced ram fail before. I'm glad Corsair took care of it, the PC has been perfect since. It's a simple problem for savvy people but it would be very frustrating for someone non-savvy especially on a premium item like the C1. I would still recommend them since the service was great, I'm sure the new models don't have this issue anymore.
At least your top fan is adjusting its speed… mine doesn’t anymore until the coolant reaches 60c, then it goes full throttle… Replaced the fan, reinstalled icue, nothing fixed the issue. Contacted support, they want to send me a new fan after I already told them I tried the above steps. I feel like Corsair support is only good while under warranty as they’ll just RMA. After that, good luck trying to solve issues with them…
I had an issue too, twice actually, after sending my PC in for repairs and receiving a new one. It turned out to be a faulty SSD. I did a lot of troubleshooting before realizing that the SSD looked cheap and lacked support. If you're experiencing issues and it's not the RAM, it might be the SSD, especially if your Windows is installed on it.
I have the Corsair One Pro i200, an even more expensive version, and it is sitting dead in my office. Just out of warranty, and Corsair refuses to do any out-of-warranty work. Local repair shops won’t either. Expensive paperweight.
I have had my Corsair i164 for three years now and it’s been great till now. I’m outside the warranty range and my pc is now blue screening almost instantly after every boot I’ve tried everything I could myself and even took it to a repair shops and they said they are not sure of the issue and can’t they can’t do anything so I’m at a loss myself so for three years I loved this thing now I’m kinda hating it 😅
Try hitting start and search for "Windows Memory Diagnostic" It willl restart and run a test. It will let you know if RAM is bad. Also go into BIOS and see idle temperatures. If its hot at idle it could be a cooling issue. Another good place to check is "event viewer". That will show you the Windows Log and look for red exclamation marks to see what the cause of shut down was.
@@theproshopper the event viewer shows the critical error being a kernel power event ID 41 did the "windows memory diagnostic" and it came up with no issues and in the BIOS the temp is running at normal levels. sometimes my pc works fine for multiple hours other times it will boot up then within seconds of trying to do something it will frezze then crash or just crash then it will be in a constant loop of booting to the bios, after I press and hold the power button and let it stay off for at least 10-30 secs it will sometimes turn on and run like normal other times it will boot up then crash and do the BIOS loop again.
Hey, I know exactly what the problem is, I've had it on mine as well, I wanted to update the Bios before moving forward, but replacing the SSD completely solved my issue, that was until after half an year later, the BSODs occured in the new drive as well, I'm replacing my drive again today, but I will be watching the Bios and SSD firmware closely.
@@landonhwhsnsbsjjYou're screwed if it's a video card or mainboard issue. I'm going through something similar right now and am at the point where my only recourse is to file a consumer protection complaint, because Corsair will not allow me to buy an extended warranty, pay to repair it (they refuse to touch any system that is not under warranty), and they can only get certain parts, not what I need. About 14 months after purchase both the NVME SSD and the GPU failed, so I'm SOL.
@landonhwhsnsbsjj This might be a longshot, but have you checked it's dusty at all? I have the same model as you, and I was getting a lot of blue screens and couldn't figure out the issue. It was also the kernel power error for me. I had never bothered to clean the dust filters, and ever since I gave them a good cleaning, I haven't gotten once since. Thankfully that was the solution for me.
Yes hopefully they will soon. I'm still super happy with my 2080ti but a 4080 or 4090 in this form factor would be insane and worth the wait. You'll love yours once you get it. Thanks so much for watching my video!
Same thing happened to me recently. But it has been going on since I got the computer 3 years ago. I ordered a Mac and will play games on a PS5 instead. This is ridiculous.
It’s not similar in cost for similar specs or performance, you’ll be paying about 30% more for the same spec pc with that 2 year warranty and compact design not to mention the thermal issues you’ll run into trying to push these to the same performance as a similar spec pc with better airflow.

Luckily it's been good ever since I got it repaired.
Super professional review, have my eye on one of these!
Thanks so much for the kind words! They are pricey but worth it.

My unit has been good ever since but I wont be buying another one.

Sir would you mind giving it to me😅😅
That's terrible. I would gut it out and test the parts one by one.
@@theproshopper that’s my plan. Of course I’m gonna have to buy a test bench for this, but it’s that or junk it.

I want one but it doesnt look like they're offering 4 series cards yet.

i have corsair one but with 4090 RTX ! great machine
Wow nice. I didn't know they had 4 series cards available now.
@@theproshopper they don't not even a 4080, sus
Very impressive for its age
Yes it is. I'd love a new model but I can't justify an upgrade just yet. They really do well in the long term.

It's certainly over-priced.
