    G'day,

    A quick question: does the Linux driver support multiple AIOs?

    I have a Windows box running an Antec Kuhler 920 and an NZXT Kraken X60. The software does not play nicely together. Antec and NZXT tell me it's Asetek's problem, Asetek tells me they don't care. What are the chances this driver can handle multiple instances?

      What is the USB VID/PID of the NZXT X60? Is it an ASETEK compatible model?

      If so, here is the story. When I originally developed the driver, I thought, "who would have more than 1 cooler"..Silly, I know.

      But, on the other hand, it's not too hard to add support for multiple Coolers.

      If you would like to help test, please let me know. I figure within a few days I might have an workable beta solution.

    G'day,

    Apologies for the delay in replying. I've just checked; I've got USB\VID_2433&PID_B111 for the one and USB\VID_2433&PID_B200 for the other. The Kraken is listed on Asetek's site: http://www.asetek.com/kraken-x60.html

    Larfs, I figured I'd be in a minority =P I originally got the 920 second hand and some Gentle Typhoons to cool my GPU, then when the X60 came out I picked that up [with some more GTs and adaptors] to put on the GPU and I put the 920 on my CPU. Obviously, that's when I discovered that your line of thinking [quite reasonable, really, considering Asetek don't really do GPU mounts] was Asetek's also.

    I'd like to help test, for sure, but I won't be able to commit to helping before the end of next month. I have a research project due then and I'll be flat out up to that point. I'll keep an eye out, tho, and give your beta a spin if it appears.

    Many thanks!

      No problem, thanks for providing the info. My driver will work with both units. I notice a lot of users on the Overclocking forums have brackets for GPU's, so this will probably not remain in the minority, at least amogst the power users anyway.

      Check back now and then when you can, I'll see how I can best implement this. I do actually have 2 920's [in seperate PC's at the moment mind you], so I can fiddle a bit with this on my end.
