Addressable RGB sync

[hafiz116]

Hi bro may i know how you control the RGB colour of your fans and do all the 9 fans really help bring down the temperature any adise thank.

Good question! The ARGB is controlled from 3 different bits of software and due to this I limit what the lights do. There are some very nice animations that Corsair has but the other vendors do not support so I tend to keep the RGB settings pretty static or just switch between 2 colours.

Below is what I'm using: -

1. Gigabytes RGB Fusion 2.0 - This controls the Motherboard, RAM, GPU & CPU Cooler (in my case the Aorus Liquid Cooler 360 - those 3 fans slapped on the radiator towards the front)
2. iCue - this is for the Corsair QL120's I have installed (3 at the bottom and 3 at the top)
3. Razer Synapse/Chroma - this is to control the Keyboard, Mouse, extended keyboard & mouse mat and the Lian Li PC011 Dynamic Razer Edition lighting.

Overall after doing several test I find very little difference in cooling by changing things out and by adding an additional 3 fans (previously I had 3 fans on the radiator and 3 at the top of the case). I do have a slight issue with space right now in that the radiator exhaust is very close to the wall. Looking to demolish this study area and have it rebuilt with a flat bench in its place.

My next move is to look into custom liquid cooling but that wont be for a few months at least. I am not too happy that I will need to take apart my GPU to add a water cooling block as it is a very nice ARGB GPU out of the box. Will have to see what happens in the next few months.

Upgraded the fans to Corsair QL120’s - looks a lot better now but the noise level is still a bit on the high side.

Even Noctuas and BeQuiet Silent Wings will be audible in that number. The only fans that are totally silent out of the box are usually the ones running at very low rpm, and move very little air. You can achieve similar results by just adjusting fan speeds. If you want silence, experiment with a custom fan curve.

Thank for your details explain do you think if using the CORSAIR Commnand pro and Corsair icue software can control the RGB fan lighting,speed and monitor the temperature in Sg detail shop where to do the custom water cooler you prefer the best.

YES! The commander pro does have 4 temperature sensors, so that the software can react to heat and auto increase the fans as needed. And yes the iCue software is where you do it (you can also push the fans into set profiles - quiet, balanced, etc. OR create your own custom fan speed curve) along with customising the colours till your hearts content!

I have to say Corsair has the best customisation out there and if you pair it with the QL120's (each fan has 34 addressable LED) the effects are very nice!

The downside to using Corsair is having to buy the Fans AND the Commander Pro so its not the cheapest solution out there but if you intend on buying other Corsair ARGB gear then worth the investment. Personally I like their implementation best and although I only have the Corsair QL120 fans I'm happy with it - may get itchy and look at other stuff Corsair do!)
