Toasted Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 The AXi series PSU come with a USB dongle for Corsair Link. The Hydro Series i series have a USB cable for Corsair LINK. You do not need the kit for these two units. Its there if you want to control your fans and lights. (Cooling node and Lightning Node) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTXJackBauer Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 You don't need the Link to run those components. But if you want to Monitor them visually, change fan settings, lighting etc etc you will than need the Corsair Link. The new i version from my understanding is that it has a added feature to work with the Corsair Link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamerGirlAlice Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 so i could run it for link control of h100i and use other commander kit to control rest. can u get the link cables on the dominator platinum if u fully populate a motherboard?

Toasted Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Just to get it clear. The H100i has two LINK connections (USB, LINK Digital Port) The USB cable allows you to use the dashboard without the LINK Commander Unit (Silver Box). The LINK Digital Port is for the Commander unit. The AXi Series PSUs come with a USB LINK Dongle. This only has ONE port for a LINK device. If you want to connect the Dominator Platinum you will need the Airflow PRO to connect it to LINK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 You will need to buy the LINK kit as the Airflow Pro does not have the type of LINK connectivity (USB) unlike the AXi and H100i. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
