cassiopeia Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Hi guys, I'm about to build a new system with the 650DW-1 case and an Asus P8Z77-V Deluxe motherboard. Since the motherboard has a BIOS built in fan controller, I was wondering if it is possible to override the Corsair case fan controller (not connect it at all) and use the mobo instead to control the fans thru the BIOS/Software. Also, in case I'm forced to use the case's controller, it comes with 4 plugs, but the case comes with 3 fans. Do I have to connect any specific plug from those 4 or can I choose randomly? Thanks.

Toasted Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 You don't have to use the fan controller if you don't want to. Just unplug the fans and plug them in to the motherboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassiopeia Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 Thanks Toasted, this is going to be my first build, and I read bad things about the Corsair case fan controller, I hope with the Asus mobo it works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 The CC650DW"-1" contains the fixed fan controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassiopeia Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 aisuite will work but there are fans that it will only set at one speed and not on a curve Is that because the AI Suite is not compatible with the Corsair stock fans? What fans work fine with the AI Suite? The CC650DW"-1" contains the fixed fan controller. Are you 100% sure? Any sources? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
