Corsair iCUE COMMANDER CORE XT, Digital Fan Speed and RGB Lighting Controller (Control up to Six PWM Case Fans and 264 RGB LEDs, Zero RPM Mode, Temperature Monitoring, Easy Installation) Black

Product Information

I should receive a H150i Elite soon. soon as its in my hands i will be able get some diagrams up and have more details to share. The Commander Pro has 6 QL 120mm Fans powered and all 6 lighting wire are connected to 1st USB Lighting Node. iCue recognizes the H150i and the fans connected to it. I can control fan speed, power settings, lighting, and just about everything on both those 6 intake fans and the H150i from inside iCue. I can also control my ram and its RGP inside iCue as well. I know that all of the fans work because I get each fan to turn on, spin, and display the default RGB setting.

here is my set up.. its not what you are after but does show the use of pwm repeaters... 32 fans.. 1 commander pro

OUR BEST PERFORMING RGB FANS

On my setup I have 8 Fans total, now I only have 6 Fans directly to The Commander Pro and I have 2 Lighting Nodes connected to it. As for having both in a system, I've done it and it works. On an AMD system (B450). With 2 CoCores and 1 CoCoreXT at one point, in fact. What version of iCUE are you running? I pluged the Commander Core XT and the Lightning Node Core on the internal USB-Hubs and the AIO on the Commander Core XT Hub. It worked for some time, but especially when the PC is under workload the Fans on the Core XT started disconnecting again. So far, nothing at all works. I still have full control over the 6 intake fans and no control or recognition of the 4 exhaust fans. Need help setting up your COMMANDER CORE XT controller? We have a guide and a video to help you out.

Now I know the Capellix comes with the "Commander Core", but I believe that's only enough to run the radiator fans, and 3 more fans for a total of 6. So that leaves 3 fans unaccounted for. The 6 that I'm installing on the bottom and side are going to be the Corsair QL series fans. So do I need to get one of the bundles with the Commander Pro? I'm not sure if the Core and the Pro can be daisy changed together or not though?This is great in concept, except that the reality is that not every cooler manages to reach the same dB level at peak operation or lowest noise levels as every other cooler. Some coolers are not seen to operate at 35 or 40dB while others easily exceed it. These same coolers in comparison also Finally, the LCD kit is connected to the CPU_FAN port of the mainboard, and all controllers/repeaters are connected to the power supply via the SATA power cable. Honestly I'm a little frustrated with corsair about the ml120 rgb pro fans for sale separately. They only have 4 leds per fan, while the ML120s with the h150i elite capellix are 8 rgb per fan. I wanted them to all match. It seems like going with sp120s might be the best from an rgb asthetics point of view, but I'd prefer magnetic levitation ones if they were available with the same 8 rgb leds per fan. Assuming you have the COMMANDER CORE (which comes with ELITE CAPELLIX) and COMMANDER CORE XT, that wouldn't be a bad configuration at all - having six fans on one controller and the remaining on the other.

However, absolutely nothing I do gets the iCue to detect the second Commander Core XT with the 4 exhaust fans connected to it. So far I have done the following: On the 2nd USB Lighting Node I just have the 2 QL 140mm Fans lighting wires connected, because I have the Fans powered by the NZXT Z63 and I can control the RPM through NZXT CAM. This is pretty odd. How do you have the CoCoreXT connected? And the CoCore? The ComCoreXT has a splitter on the USB Connector - is the Commander Core connected to that? Otherwise I do not know what to do. Obviously the Commander Core is the ideal product because I would rather have just two sata devices plugged into my case instead of 4 or 5. The H150i, 3x LL fans on the radiator, and 3x bottom intake fans all connected to the Commander Core that came with the H150i.

Example - iCUE 5000x RGB withH150i Elite LCD (XT) and 7x QL120 RGB fans

yes the commander core and pro are different, if you dont think so then you are an idiot. the Core can handle 6 fans completely with the PWM and RGB. the Pro can handle 6 fans for power, 2 for RGB 4 temp sensors and 2 9 pin internal USB hubs. The 4x QL120 RGB fan (No.7) is connected to the Lighting Node Core and the PWM Repeater of the iCUE 5000x RGB case. The first time I set the system up the 6 QL 120mm Fan light wasn't working, but it was powered and the fans are (Blowing Air) Every Corsair RGB Hub (whatever the kind) has room for 6 fans, so if you have a RGB Led Hub and a Lighting Node Core you will be ok any kind of fan you have (be aware that if your 7 fans are let's say LL and QL, you will have to connect each kind of fan to a different hub). Mixing different fans on the same hub can bring weird effects.
