Skippman Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I'm looking for an all in one controller suite for my new build and the Corsair Commander Mini seems to fit the bill. It looks like it'll integrate nicely with my water cooling rig, control all my Corsair fans, and tuck nicely behind the drive bays out of the way on my 700D case. I do have a few questions. Will the Corsair Mini allow me to use the PWM function on my Corsair AF140 and SP120 fans? Will the Corsair Mini allow me to control my MCP-655/D5 pump via PWM? Will it accept the readings from a Monsoon temperature probe? Any word on the light strips? Has anyone has a positive experience with the unit? It seems most have nothing but complaints which concerns me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LXS Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I have the original Commander unit, cooling node plus 2 lighting nodes in my air cooled gaming rig. I have my share of headaches with this Corsair product but for the most part it works to some extent. It's not perfect but recommend holding off buying the mini until they sort out all the kinks. I built another gaming rig and used an Aquaero 5 Pro as my controller. The Aquaero 5LT is about $76. I like Corsair and I have several of their products but if you are custom watercooling, consider the Aquero as one of your options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
