570x Case Issues

Truebilly · February 10, 2020

I'm building a rig for a wedding gift and thought this looked good. Then I find out the weak *** controller for the fans cannot connect to icue you have to spend another $75 for that , what's the point that's just a dick move putting that worthless garbage in there also when you connect the fans you have to buy for the top they have to be the sp or they won't work , doesn't say that anywhere of course so I got the LL. Then the bracket at the top that is supposed to hold 140mm has 120mm circles cut into it so it looks like my cross eyed retarded uncle when they are lit up. Such poor execution on a beautiful case. The the controller thing is just a middle finger to your customers.

The 570x is over 3 yrs old buddy.. was no LL/ML/QL fans to be considered,, wasnt even a Commander Pro or Lighting Node Pro! (Commander Mini was a thing tho)

When that case was released the only Corsair RGB Fans you could buy was SP RGB and HD RGB fans.. both fans are compatible with the 570x case rgb buttons. both fans can be bought with the button controller that fits in the back.

The idea was to give people manual rgb control out of the box.. which it did.. later versions of that chassis do indeed come with Commander Pro's etc (500D SE) which is also reflected it its cost.

There is plenty of info out there on this now as i made it my mission to be that way lol. in 2017 we had to guess!!
