Jaxyl Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I have an AIO H100i RGB PLATINUM with the radiator on top and a stock fan on back, as you can see in photo below. I want to replace the stock back fan with a LL120 and I can control its PWM via mobo but not RGB. Since I prefer not to add another controller (Light Node, Commander, etc.) and I'm not interested in dynamic rgb effects it's possible to control RGB of the two top fans as they are detected as only one in ICue and the back fan as the other one? To perform this will the RGB Splitter Adapter on Ebay (I don't know if I can provide the link, but I'm sure you all know what I intend) work? They say it has to connect to Lightning Node Pro or Commander Pro, but is the AIO pump considered as some "controller"? Thank you! p.s. I have to clean the panel :laughing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Hey buddy... although not supported by Corsair.. and of course.. all at your own risk!. yes this should work.. Nice Diagram ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Yes, it should work. However, I would use caution when powering 3 LL fans from the cooler; I'm not sure that it could handle the power draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 good call.. and user is using white.. maybe drop brightness if white is a must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegan Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 I found spending a few pesos on a Corsair Commander to be helpful for running more fans. It even has RGB for those a desire for garish color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxyl Posted April 22, 2021 Author Share Posted April 22, 2021 Thank you for the answers! I'll take a second look to use RGB Fan Led Hub + Lightning Node or Commander, but now I know the splitter would theoretically work. Maybe removing the PWM control from pump will help reducing power drain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeDoyen Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 motor current draw is vaguely insignificant.. a couple hundreds of mA at worst in use. 3 QL fans on full white full brightness is over 1.5A, or a third of what a SATA connector can deliver on 5V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees Corsair Travis Posted April 27, 2021 Corsair Employees Share Posted April 27, 2021 The pump has several RBG LEDs as well, I do not suggest doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
