Important: While you can connect 12 QL fans on the Lighting Node Pro, and the Commander Pro controllers, It's only possible if you use SignalRGB, iCUE will only let you do 6 QL fans on the Lighting Node Pro and the Commander Pro. You also will experience laggy effects if you connected 12 QL fans on the Lighting Node Pro and Commander Pro, so we still recommended the Commander Core XT which doesn't have this issue. However, you can run 12 of any other Corsair fans on the Lighting Node Pro and Commander Pro without any lag issues.
How do you connect 2 Commander Core controllers for multiple vents?
@@mariusstoica2289 Can you explain what you mean by that?
@@SignalRGB so I have 2 commander core and I want to use them both. Is that possible?
@@SignalRGB dude' Is it compatible with the back-of-monitor ambience for Philips hue?
Can you guys help me connect my Lian li al120 fans to the razer chroma argb controller
One of the most comprehensive guides I've seen out there for RGB lighting across the board.
SignalRGB just keeps standing out. Cheers!
it also stands out when looking at ram usage.
I was like: why signal rgb doens't recognize my coolmoon controller? After this video: it's just a splitter LOL
Which type you had? I planned to buy from that brand aswell
@@fadillah6014 The coolmoon splitter is kinda nice, but Signal RGB only sees it as a splitter. It going to duplicate whatever effect you're trying to all stuff connected to the coolmoon controller. I have the simple one, the non music type.
Finally, this is what i need 😭
Just like a lot of the comments I'm just reiterating - you've done a comprehensive and scientifically laid out video here in a short timeframe. Thanks very much.
They need to pay you that bag!!! Straight to the point, clear voice…you’re dope man
I’ve been searching all over the internet for this information without success and then I find this video! Thank you so much!
this is UNBELIEVABLY helpful. I've wanted to get in to Signal RGB for a long long time and this is taking a lot of the confusion away.
To the point, and extraordinarily informative. 10/10
Thank you SO much, after about 2h of searching and finding noone talking about the difference between splitting and daisy chaining, I finally got my answers and also so many solutions to my problem :) Thanks!
This has been the most informative video I've watched in the past 4 months of watching computer building guides to help with my first PC build
This is the video I absolutely needed. This answers all my questions finally!!
I plan on getting Arctic p12s ARGB with Razers RGB controller. Noctua-ish performance + top tier RGB effects wo using crappy, confusing, proprietary controllers.
thats what im tryna do
solid combo; I have the fans in my pc so I just need the controller
@@biszarr1513 I'm in the same boat, I have the arctic p12 fans in my pc I just need the controller. Are you guys happy with your razers controller with the Arctic fans?
@@andrewmcmillions3138 I'm glad you asked this because I recently found out these things have true daisy chain so you dn't need the controller! just daisy chain them to an rgb port and you will have individual control
@@biszarr1513 yes I love that they are daisy chain, sadly though my motherboard doesn't have a-rgb port and that's why I need the controller :/ might just get a new motherboard soon, mine is like 7 years old, it's a gigabyte
Good to see you still leading the show with rgb tech.. love all you do man.. still happily sending money your way.
Thanks! very helpful for my future builds/upgrades.
Excellent video. Systematic and concise while being comprehensive.
One of the most useful guides on this topic!
Thanks this was so useful and it's something that other companies should do
U got skills plus everything was detailed perfectly!!
Genuinely outstanding work. Thanks!👏👏👏
Awesome, very helpful video! keep up the great content!!!
I just recently discovered this software and love it! Using it on 3 different systems. My kids and my own. I've recommended it to a few friends as well. While the kids are using the free version, I decided to subscribe (I do really despise subscriptions! Though, this one is quite reasonable). I chose to help support the effort over my reservations on subs. ;)
I can confirm that this works using the 'upHere 5V 3Pin ARGB PWM Fan Hub' (I think it is called the P7P) with a bit of configuration. It was flawless with my Cooler Master A1 V2 ARGB controller.
Glad I found this software.
Thanks mate, this is the video I needed. Last year I jumped into my first new PC in several years with the Corsair 7000X. Now I'm building a new PC for a family member on a budget and they want the rainbow spewing unicorn effects as well (on a budget). The Corsair ARGB is so good it's flaw is I didn't have to learn anything haha!
exactly the information I was looking for. Thx! 👍
thank you for the explanations and links.
Very informative for such a highly complex topic. Only thing I think it may have missed was the problematic use of Y splitters and hubs.
I covered that hubs are basically just splitters that dont offer individual rgb control. At the very start of the video.
i was looking for this video i need some adapters to work,thanks very helpfull
Thanks so much for this helpful video, I learned a lot!
But I have one question, what about Phanteks fans?
They come with a non standard plug that looks like the 3 pin rgb Lian Li plugs,
would it be possible to use one of the Lian Li ARGB controller with Phanteks fans?
Or should I buy six adapter cables and the Razer RGB controller separately? They look like they would fit in the AirGoo adapters.
Great video. Perhaps I missed it but do you require both a hub and a controller? My mobo does not have argb headers, so I purchased the Razer Chroma hub, which has 3 pin male heads. However, the argb fans I purchased have 6 pin female heads, but it comes with a controller, which has a sata cable and a 3 pin female head, which can connect to the Razer Chroma hub. I was hoping to connect the fans directly to the Razer Chroma instead of going through a controller which then goes to the hub, but I'm not sure if there would be an incompatibility of voltages. Also, it seems a bit difficult relatively to find 3 pin argb fans.
thanks for this!
Excellent tutorial! However, I have RGB fans but not the controller box. Can I still connect them in that RGB pin setup where all of them light up the same? Secondly do super cheap motherboards even support this option?
Thanks for the video. I got
- x3 groups of lianli Sl fans v2 -> 1controller -> MB usb
- x2 strimer v2 -> 1controller -> MB usb
- x1 LED phanteks strip M1 -> 5v RGB header
Those LianLi fans and strimers got lag, not smoothly
So what would you recommend for the best performance in RGBsignal?
Thank you so much
This was a nice deep dive into RBG controllers, but didn't answer a question I have. Some RGB fans come with additional SATA power plug. I never know if this is necessary, or if the regular fan + argb header on the motherboard will suffice. For example, I have an AIO with RGB fans. It comes with a little controller that lets you change the colors and color modes physically, but you have to connect it to SATA power. However, you can then disconnect that connector and the LEDs will remember the set colors and still work. Recently, I bought a new AIO, which has an ARGB connector, as well as the regular fan connector, and also SATA power. With this one, I was hoping I could completely forgoe the SATA cable, as the ARGB connection to the motherboard should enable me to control the fans this way. However, with this one, the LEDs won't light up _at all_ unless the SATA is also connected. I don't understand that. And I don't understand how to figure these things out before buying RGB stuff. I would appreciate any help, insight, resources.
I love what you guys are doing here, the only reason I'm not using SignalRGB is the damn Strimmer V2 full control. Looking at the Arduino board work around and don't even know if that'll help 😔
Thanks for the video.
I'm still confused though. I've recently purchased a Cooler Master HAF 700 which includes an internal ARGB controller.
The problem is that while it lets me control fans led, fans rpm are always stuck to 100%, which is frustrating.
My question is if there's any solution to this. Like a ARGB fan hub that can actually control fan speeds over the motherboard or any other way.
I'd really appreciatte any suggestions.
Neeeeeed it, thanks, its a critical thing that many companies should do it
Razer Chroma ARGB Controller works like a charm😊
Which hub would you recommend if all I want is an ARGB fan splitter to have 6 fans on my Arctic 420 AIO used with the Asus B650EF matching fan speed and ARGB? I’ll also be using 4 phanteks case fans, I’m wondering which RGB software is low resource intensive and works well with my parts?
Hi great video, 1st off can you guys do a comprehensive video on the Aqua Farbwerk stuff as they seem to be one of the best options for syncing rgb outside your case, Also you say the Corsair commander core xt can control 264 leds out of the box but you don't cover individual ports, can it control say 120 leds on one port?
God I wish I saw this before making my first rgb build. Would have saved me so much headache, frustration, a bundle of cash, and having random cables and adapters now strewn about my apartment.
Absolutely love this software! Got a 3.5k build and am worried! Will it work with my RGB items?
ASUS AMD Graphic’s Card, ROG Motherboard, Corsair CPU cooler and QL120 fans and Corsair RAM ddr5
I’m a dork. I forgot to allocate my Corsair fans. I got it now though 👍 this software is great
Just stumbled across your channel - super informative. I’m not a RGB guru… just a newbie.
Crazy question for a unique setup:
I want a computer case that I’m fitting with my small network switch, NAS, dvd burner, etc. (basically all the wired minutia from my desk). I want to outfit it with RGB lighting and fans to make it look cool and keep it cool. I am already committed to the Corsair ecosystem. Is there a way I can use the XT controller (perhaps) and plug it into my Mac via a USB adapter so that iCue will see it and manipulate it? Crazy question huh? I’m open to all newbie level suggestions….. thank you!!!
Thanks for this video! I have purchased 10x new Corsair QX120's. Any idea if the HUB included in the 3-pack of fans can control all 10 via the daisy chain or do I need something additional?
Is there a special type of fan to use? Because some rgb fans come with remotes, and others only use the rainbiw effect, what type of fans should i be using? Argb? Regular rgb? 4 pin? 3 pin? Thanks in advance, and also, any budget 6 pack (or two sets of 3) of rgb fans that you could recommend?
Omfg THANK YOU dude ❤ I’m looking for a simple explanation for 10000000h 😂😂
What about Thermaltake TT Sync Controller? I use that with my 3 Riing Trio Fans. Do you plan on supporting either of those products? Right now I just selected a diff TT fan & SignalRGB works alright. But could be better.
Nice video
At 10:50 for lian li fans I can get no lag with the 3pin 5v, that's good to hear, my only question is for fan control should I use the 2pin fan connector or the usb header?
Ultimate guide is right.
Hello, I have some questions. I watched your build video with lian li infinity fans and you used 3 controllers why is that? Also where do they plug into?
Best software ever ❤❤
i was looking everywhere for this info and couldnot find any usefull or correct info and after 10 hour this video was released too thank you, it was a need. by the way i wanna ask something. i have msi b550 edge have 2 port but signal argb see only 1 rainbow port. why is this happenig? i afraid of this to happen when ı buy razer controller too
thanks for the content. I have 10 lian li sl120 and I can't figure out what to do to control them independently on signal rgb. I tried connecting directly to the motherboard, to a corsair node pro and no success. When I tell signal rgb to add a sl fan, a unifan or even custom rgb...it adds 4 fans at the same time...but from different groups. I'm getting crazy here cause the lian li are my favourite fans but by far the worst when regards to software or workaround with signal rgb. I have another PC with 10 corsair LL120 and it works like a charm. Could you help me with this one?
Hello. There are eleven fans in my case. To make them all work independently, can I use the Rizer chroma argb controller? I think you need two controllers. If I connect them, will they work independently of each other or repeat each other? Sorry for my language.
dude that was thee most ultimate video ive seen for any ultimate topic with thee most ultimate description i have ultimately watched, it ultimately answered every question in the most ultimate manner, but more importantly concise an thorough
what can i call you Mr. Ultimo, Dr. Ultimately, or the know-it-all~timate guy?
ill be honest i still have a question plus a comment, 1st what IS Signal RGB? i thought i only needed to download icue to get the controller up and running? anybody?
comment, the commander pro xt has the 4 pin rgb, but it has 2 different ports on the side, a different 4 pin, and another 3 pin, i think the one you missed says ID on it which instructions jus say any compatible corsair device, but this out too, i have 3 corsair fans which have a 3 pin connector that does NOT fit anywhere on the commander pro xt, its a tiny 3 pin with a notch on bottom left where commanders 3 pin has 2 notches on bottom, so with adapters i have everything non corsair hooked up all except the only corsair fans i have which cant connect, i think ther called hydro idk im pretty sure there corsair
SignalRGB is our alternative RGB application that works for all brands
@@SignalRGB thank you yea that 3 pin i thought was for a corsair was actually to a thermaltake so...
thang i dont get is these companies surely must know there are workarounds to there proprietary bull crap so why do they continue to use them? i think either they get enough newbies that dont know bout it and assume they must commit or ther jus lazy an dont want to spend the extta money in productiin costs to switch them to universal, took an act of congress to force cell companies to standardize phone chargers may need that agaim, i just assumed ISO or ASM... had that authority tho
Question! How do I control more than 6 fans? I have 6 (AF120)fans connected to a Commander Core and 2(QL140) fans connected directly to the mobo CHA1 and CHA2 with the RGB cables going to a Corsair fan LED hub.
Hi man, are there any RGB 4pin and PWR hub you know about? every one I find is ARGB 3pin but the only that is for 4pin is the Corsair one which is property and my fans are RGB from cooler master
Will SignalRGB ever be able to control the Strimmer Plus with multiple effects instead of the single strip?
Awesome video. Probably the only in-depth video that hits all the major RGB brands.
For Lian Li Infinity fans (that are connected to their controller), do you have to use the 5V ARGB header on MB for Signal RGB to control it? Or will Signal RGB be able to detect the fans / controller via the USB Header? Asking b/c Signal RGB can detect Corsair Commander Core via USB connection.
You can use either usb or 5v header. But with 5v, the first channel will be copied onto all other channels and there will be NO LAG. With usb you get full control on all channels but you might experience lag issues as mentioned in the video because Lian Li made their controllers poorly.
@@SignalRGB question(for the Lian Li infinity fans), if i still have the usb plugged in, so i have PWM fan control, but i also have the 5V argb cables plugged into the motherboard, will the 5V argb cable take over the rgb signal instead of the usb header, so that there will be no lag? thanks.
Excellent bro!!!
Hi, new pc guy here! I ordered the Corsair 4000x (I believe you said it has the node core) and a deepcool ls520 se aio. Is there a way to connect the aio to the node core to sync all the rgb?
I have a question , sorry in advance if it has alrdy been brought up :
Does Signal recognize and use properly, two separate Razer Chroma Controllers installed in a system?
Finally some rgb info I can start to troubleshoot with. I have a 9 coolermaster fans top, bottom and 3 on a cooler master, master cool aio on the wall section and can't find a controller or hub that supports 10 or more 3 pin rgb connections or a way to in groups of 3 or individually control the fans and ultimately I'd like to be able to individually control the fans and the aio. I haven't been able to individually control the aio independently from the fans nor could I even get CoolerMasters rgb software to operate but just use gigabytes instead and works ok but I don't care for the lack of presets and ill add that I have a gigabyte b650 aorus elite ax and have two 3 pin connections that I know of any advice I'd appreciate it
Would combining the Razer chroma addressable rgb and the Razer PWM fan controller be possible? Im considering ordering both for my EKWB EK Fan loop 120mm and 140mm fans as well as the EKWB EK nucleus...
whats about the hub included in some be quiet products like the 500fx or the pure loop 2 fx?
Hi is there one adapter to control with some software (open RGB, aura sync, ice etc)your rgb or argb LEDs without a rgb or argb header ?
I have several groups of 4 Lian Li Inf 120 fans I need to hook up. I was going to use the razer chroma hub but it has an 80 led per port limit and I need 160 led per port.
Okay so i bought a RGB fan controller that has 6pin headers for the fans, and a 3-pin header for Motherboard connection. And a sata connection for power. Does the 3-pin header that goes to the addressable header on the motherboard also control fan speed? The fans are just spinning at max speed all the time now.
Does SignalRGB have a program that lets you control RGB colors via temperature probes? One color at cooler temps like say a light blue, and change to a red color at higher temp?
I got the Corsair HC7 Water block & XD5 pump and both came with ARGB converter cables.
Thats a new thing.
if my board doesn't support aRGB can I still use a controller through USB like the Farbwerk to get around this or will it still risk damage?
0:38 My old B450 Aorus mobo has two 4-pin headers labeled "D_LED" that can be toggled between 5v or 12v. I was always confused as to whether these are compatible with ARGB products. From your description, the answer appears to be yes. Am I understanding this correctly?
probably not but I would try googling it
I have cooler msste jalo 3 in 1, so Is better to use the hub inset tonconmect the fans in chain directly tl the mother board?😊
Hi, I am getting the nzxt h5 elite case (which comes with 2 fans.) it comes with nzxt's rgb controller but would I be able to plug in a corsair rgb AIO into it and still get the rgb effects?
What about lianli 216 case ..the hub which comes along with case is that just splitter or a geniune hub to control each fan individually?
Is there any reason that I shouldn't use a Corsair Internal 4-Port USB 2.0 Hub | 4X 9-Pin USB 2.0 Ports | instead of the NZXT Internal USB Hub 3 | AC-IUSBH-M3 | 4 Internal USB 2.0 Ports? I have all kinds of Corsair equipment from 2 previous PC builds. I want to thank you for the section on adapter cables that let you connect Corsair products with other brands of hubs and such. I never knew about incompatibility problems until I spent way too much on Corsair. Thanks again.
Thank you very much for this video really helped
Hey, So I recently got my hands on some nice UNI Fans V2s, however the new controller from lian li seems to be different from the inside, since in SignalRGB it says that this device is still unsupported. When I turn on Mobo Lighting Sync in L-Connect 3 it lets me use the rgb headers on the motherboard, still I cant configure different channels on my mobo because theres simply the button for it not there. What I have right now is basically all Fans having all the same color and no diversity. Since the controller is unsupported currently, will a Plugin for the new V2 controller fix these issues?
are there non sata powered controllers?? my rog b650a motherboard has 4 individual 7-pin ports... so i cant connect any of the corsair hubs or lian li ones. i purchased all my parts together my corsair fans arent compatible with my lian li controller and the sata port doesnt even fit as it is much bigger than a 7 pin connector i have. im obviously returning the lian li stuff. any recommendations on getting a controller that can sync 6 fans together that is not sata powered or uses a 7-pin cable??
If I have a brand of argb fans not supported by signal rgb but have the razer controller, would it still work?
Adapters for the new SL120 V2 Lian Li fans?
Can I connect the rgb adapter from the node pro to the rgb hub and use non-corsair connected to the hub? (I have the corsair carbide spec omega rgb case btw)
Can you use unsupported fans with a supported controller for dodge rgb or no
@SignalRGB - My commander core controller has a H150i elite capellix aio and I can't seem to figure out how you control the pump RGB lighting. I tried to add it as a device tied to the controller but nothing happens when i change the settings.
is there a adapter to covert a fans like the CT120/140 that has the 3pin5v connector and 4pin PWM fan, to the Thermaltake connector that looks like a USB connector. I saw a video awhile that you can plug in the seperate cables into a TT controller that comes with TT fans, but I don't remember where I found it.
on the site it says signalrgb is compatible with icue h100i cooler, does that include the RGB version? Im using signalpro, everything is working great except the AIO.
I use a Razer argb controller, and this is a great controller used in a totally BeQuiet system and an Alphacool AIO that can be modified in a custom loop.. In my next build, there will be a Razer, a Aqua computer quadro for the fans and pump from my custom loop. And a controller from Lian Li fans, and case. This will be fully automated. But I think I have to get adapter cables for the Lian Li uni fans. 3 on top with a EK-rad and 3 on the bottom also with a 4,5cm EK rad. This system has also 2 real blacklight mini TL tubes, on the side, together with my pump/ reservoir combo from EK the case is of course the 011 dyn EVO XL. It's only sad that Signal RGB doesn't support AMD GPU's. because that one is a 7900xtx. That can be a problem.
Where is the link mentioned in the video to the instructions to get Aquacomputer RGBpx strips to work in SignalRGB? I don't understand why controlling these LED strips would be any different. They are standard ARGB LEDs with a Molex Pico-blade connector instead of the terrible "standard" ARGB connector. The RGBpx cable connects the LED strip to a port on the Farbwerk360. SignalRGB should be able to control the LED strip like any other LED strip. What am I missing?
Great video BTW!
Added that! Check again. Forgot to, thanks for that reminder.
@@SignalRGB Thank you! I think I understand why this needs to be done. I read somewhere on Discord (can't find it now), that the Aquasuite (AQS) program will always attempt to control the Farbwerk360 (or Nano) when it's running. So if you use AQS for your cooling component control, but you want to control a FW360 with Signal RGB, there will be a conflict, not unlike having Signal RGB control a Corsair RGB controller but having iCue running at the same time with the RGB controller enabled and under iCue control. The procedure at the link you provided uses the Ambientpx feature which causes the LEDs to track video color info. Since Signal RGB uses a "canvas", this is how you get the RGB color data in the FW360. Is this correct? Also, once it's set up this way, is it then OK to have AQS running and controlling fans, pumps, etc, while Signal RGB is controlling the FW360? Final question - The FW360 and Nano support Transparency which allows RGB effects to "bleed through" higher level effects. RGBpx ports on the Octo, Quadro, D5 Next, High Flow Next, etc. do not support Transparency. Is this feature maintained or even relevant when the FW device is under Signal RGB control? I know it's kind of weird to post detailed questions like this in a RUclips comment, but since you obviously read these comments, I figured I might as well ask. Many thanks for any additional info.
Are there any RGB Hubs that can be set via software but then store all the settings on board (meaning you can uninstall software and the settings remain throughout PC boot or different OS)? I'm getting B650 AORUS ELITE AX that has Fusion software, but that has to be run also and there seems to be no bios-level settings to control for RGB? (will check once I get the mb). But still, would be nice to have the best of both worlds - change settings via software, AND have them saved through hardware.
I recently got the firmware from my MSI MOBO corrupted with the led abnormal issue. I was thinking in bypass the problem buying a ARGB controller. The thing is that my ARGB fans, the Thermalright TL-C12C, are not supported by SignalRGB. If I connect this non supported fans to some non propietary ARGB controller, like the Razer Chroma, will I be able to control the fans inside SignalRGB?
@signalrgb would the phanteks drgb hub work with 8 lian li sl120 v2 fans connected to motherboard
is it necessary to connect the CM A1 controller to both SATA and internal USB ? i dont have internal usb free
Used the Razer Chroma Controller for a while. Good controller.
But damn all these controllers are so weak.
I was searching for a new controller for my new build but the main led strip around the front already has around 200 LEDs.
Gotta build a custom solution again.
You don’t happen to have support for microcontrollers?
i may have missed it or misunderstood but i can connect the lian li strimer controller to a razer chroma controller is that right?
I can't find any of the ARGB controllers mentioned, just the cooler master argb+pwm hub, which I believe is not possible to configure each argb individually
hi. does the MSI ADDRESSABLE RGB CONTROL BOX work? like can it control each fan RGB?
Do you know if I can control the rgb on the fans on my cougar duoface case
Hi sorry long question. I have an NZXT H5 Elite case. The RGB hub preinstalled is already full. It can only take 3 connections. The two from the front fans and one from my NZXT Kraken Z53. I bought a new NZXT F120 RGB Duo to use as exhaust at the rear part of my case. I connected the fan wire to the chasis header of my MB and the RGB wire to the argb header on my MB. The fan spins but the light is only switching from Red and Green. It is syncing with Asus Aura sync but the color is only Red and Green. Do you know what the issue is? Thanks
I really wish I knew about the Lian Li SL fans before. Everything on RGB Signal says they’re supported. I just bought 9 fans and I couldn’t get them to sync up. The whole purpose of buying them was pointless now that I need to get expensive converter cables. Problem should meantion that in the application. I didn’t even notice anyone talking about it in Discord.
The 5v, 3 pin header on my MOBO is labeled JRAINBOW1. Is this the same exact thing but just labeled differently? It's an MSI mobo so it might just be how they label things but I haven't upgraded anything in a while and never used an RGB controller before so I can't tell.
