      Aquacomputer and its Aquasuite has been the top option for fan controller and software for longest time. They have options like splitty 4 to control corsair argb fans and farbwerk360 for the rest.
      Watercool been long working on one. Ekwb is completely redoing there. Corsair has always been not great.

    I have the older 140mm model, and I just skip using any of the proprietary things and just plug them into the motherboard's argb and let it handle all the RGB. It also uses openRGB when I'm on Linux too. Works well.

Theyre very pretty as well.

    The Flat-lay walkthrough was so very clear and helpful.
    I've been changing my T-30 3x daisy chained AIO fans to share CPU_FAN and CPU_OPT rather than all on CPU_FAN due to learning about, and having significant worries of, overloading the 1 AMP limit on fan headers, since T-30s are well above that under full draw.
    Then I thought, wait, I have 4 Lian Li fans connected to my hub. Is that in danger? And I wasn't sure how they were powered, as I was pretty sure it was power supply related instead, so safe.
    Your video here helped me clear that worry up without having to take apart my cables and trace things. And also reminded me of how much of a mess the cables are with hubs lol.

  • @anannyoo
    @anannyoo 3 года назад +1

    Hey is it possible to control the AL120 RGB color with motherboard aura sync using Deepcool FH-10 Fan hub instead of using L-connect? I see that there is PWM issue with L-connect and therefore will love to use my fan hub instead of L-connect. Also I belive the AL120 RBG connector is universal one and can plug directly into Deepcool FH-10 Fan hub or any other generic fan hub?

      @abccbc8335 3 года назад +1

      The sl hub controller didn’t last very long for some people. The watercoolers endup using the aquacomputer fan controller with rgbx (each rgbx control 3 fans max or 90rgbx). So quadro/octo.

    im actually installing these right now, but im having trouble understanding the optional motherboard plugs. is there a benefit to having the optional motherboard sync? or its just extra steps i dont need to do. i have 2 sets of these Lian Li SL120 (so 6 individual fans total). If im able to, should i just hook up every available/optional plug? or would that just do more harm than good?

    Hey! I am going to do a case swap soon. My new case will be an O11 Air Mini and I already made sure that all of my components are compatible with this case.
    I am also going to buy a 2-pack of SL140 fans which I will connect to my motherboard for RGB and PWM control.
    My question is this. I already have 6x Arctic aRGB PWM fans that I will be keeping for now (these will go inside the Lian Li case). Can I connect these fans to the Lian Li controller that comes with the SL140 fans or they won't be compatible? And if they're not, is there any aRGB controller that you recommend?

The sata cable is connected along with the usb cable. So I’ve connected the RGB but the other cable, I don’t know where it goes, on the motherboard there is about 9 connections. I’ve connected to the cpu Fan connection The artic pump cable has been connected to the CPU opt. But I feel like I can’t control the fans and they don’t adjust to being in game or out of game.
