I purchased a new Cyberpowepc a month ago. Took me a frustrating hour to realize that my RGB fans colors were not controlled by the gigabyte fusion software but by a button on the Phantek case which cycles through different colors. So as a complete novice I wondered about adding a few more fans but how do I get them to sync all together. I realized that none of the RGB headers of the motherboard had anything plugged into them which really confused me. How on earth are the fans lit up and controlled by a button the case. I don’t want to go digging in the cables since everything works great now, but in case I get brave I’d like to know how these are working without anything being plugged into the motherboard? And the new fans plug where?

It's hard to advise from afar. But if it's from a button on the case then it's either a controller or daisy chained fans connected to that button. What fans are they.

Hi so i used the commander core i think for 5 fans and everything operates fine with the icue. But im having an issue where i power on, the fans twitch but dont spin and they all turn red. The fans dont start spinning until i log into the windows account and the the lighting settings adjust when icue loads. Is that normal? Should i buy splitters like you used to mount it to the MB? Its such a small issue but it drives me crazy. Great vid btw!

At one point I bought 12 Corsair fans but after going through the cable mess, I gave up. Returned all of them and bought Lian Li fans instead. It went down from 24 cables to 4, and 4 controller boxes to 1. I bet Corsair will eventually release fans that can daisy chain everything together. Not going to buy any fans from them until that happens.

Instead of using a commander core + corsair rgb hub, could I just use two commander cores for simplicity? For 9 total RGB fans so there's a couple less system fan headers that need to be used. 3 of these would be with a h150i elite lcd xt, which come with 3 AF120 fans. This would need 3 total USB connections right? Between the two cores + the AIO connection, assuming my case (h6 flow) doesn't need any additional for i.e front panel? So I'd need a USB hub since the mobo (gigabyte aorus elite ax) only has 2 USB 2.0 headers?

the manual should say how many amps a fan header is, typically 1 unless it says 2 like some high end boards have. when you look at fans you can see their amperage, such as .2 or .3 amps. so if you have .2 amp fans thats 5 per header(1 amp), and if you have .3 that would be 3 fans as that would be .9 amps.
