Corsair Carbide 400C + Kraken X62 + RGB Fans

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, I'm looking for some advice because I'm going to buy a Carbide 400C case, and I've chosen NZXT kraken x62 for my I7 8700k. (after doing a lot of research, if you have other recommendation would be great to hear)

 

So, some questions:

 

1) Does the X62 fits well in the 400C? I'm planning to mount it in the front of the case. (Fans between the case and the radiator, as seen in the pic below):

2) I'm planning to install 2 140mm fans on the top, and 120MM in the rear. Which fans would you recommend to me?

 

This is my pick, unless you have a better suggestion:

140MM x2: https://www.coolblue.nl/product/800650/corsair-hd140-rgb-led-double-pack.html

120MM: https://www.coolblue.nl/product/800650/corsair-hd140-rgb-led-double-pack.html

 

3) Do I need to buy a board like commander pro? Or can I just connect the fans to my motherboard (Asus Z370A)? I don't have experience setting up multiple rgb fans.

 

Thanks in advance for the advice :)

Not too familiar with the Kraken x62 but it should fit fine if it's anything like our H115i or H110.

 

As for your RGB Fans technically you don't need a Commander Pro. When you by the 2 pack or 3 pack it'll come with a 3 button controller and an RGB Fan HUB to control your RGB.

 

Zotty wrote up a pretty nice guide for this that I would definitely suggest checking out:

Thanks!, Last one: Would you recommend to me to buy 2x120MM and 1x140MM or 3x120MM?
