So, this totally works. Awesome news. 100% worth the wait.

I would also like to know if you were able to control iCue with a windows VM or with Wine.

Best news all day thanks (to both of you)! I just ordered the cable. :)

Great, thanks DevBiker and c-attack! Okay, so let me get this right. I'd plug the USB header plug from the Commander Pro into this new cable https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Q4QZW57/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AQ8OIL3FGVKZE&psc=1 Then, that can be plugged into any USB 2.0 A port on my computer case. Please Please Please correct me if I'm wrong here than.... This will in-turn allow Windows to recognize the Commander Pro as a device, and I can then manage the Commander Pro and set my own fan speeds to each fan plugged into the CoPro? That'd be great, and sounds like what I'm looking for.

Hi @DevBiker. Can you show me what a CoPro is? I don't find anything like a USB adapter by that name from Google. Would this work? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Q4QZW57/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AQ8OIL3FGVKZE&psc=1 I'm hoping if I plug the header end into the iCue Fan Controller and the USB A end into a USB 2.0 port, the Fan Controller will be visible and I'll be able to manage the Fan Controller. You see, as is right now, I can't manage the Controller, presumable because the USB header isn't able to read any feedback from the Fan Controller over the 8-pin header. I'm worried that buying yet another "thing" that doesn't work is just pouring more money into a failed project. But if Windows 10 can read the Fan Controller through the USB 2.0 port on the back of my computer, then maybe it'll be okay.

Ugh, I'm at wits end. Sorry. Is there maybe a 9-pin (male) to usb cable that may work for this? Is it even possible to just plug the usb end into a normal usb port and make it work, or does it have to be plugged into the header? This board has a couple each usb 2.0 and 3.0 ports. At first, I thought maybe there was a hardware reason it had to be plugged into the header, but now I'm thinking it was because it's meant to be housed internally. It would be nice, at least in my case, if I could house it externally and plug it into one of my usb ports.

Hi DevBiker. It's an older board that I inherited, and didn't know much about. IEI, KINO-QM670-R20 https://www.icpamerica.com/uploads/product_usermanual/KINO-QM670_UMN_v1.00.pdf Page 38 - USB Connector Pinout Location I've always used it as a home server, great for Plex and file server, but after updating the BIOS (big mistake), the PWM fan control stopped working. And since it's an old discontinued board... no support. And yes, I did walk back the BIOS, but it didn't help. That's why I chose to get a fan controller, and this one sounds great. The controller was meant to buy me a couple more years before I have to upgrade to a new motherboard. I didn't realize how proprietary this motherboard is. I inherited it...

Hi, I bought a new Corsair CL-9011110-WW Fan Controller Commander Pro Temperature Monitor. Hopes are it will control my out-of-control case and cpu fans. Plugged in, it slows things down nicely, but it's not variable speed at all. Turns out, I can't seem to get connected to the Fan Controller at all. Seems the iCue software can't connect to it maybe? I have two USB headers on my motherboard. They are 8-pin headers (rare I know). Is there a way to get this working? Or did I just through my money away? This was such a great idea, until I put eyes on the usb plug on the fan controller. (( sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place, please redirect me if necessary ))
