Spacedmonkey Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I was wondering if it is possible to use 2 corsair dominator airflow platinums with the corsair link commander mini, and still be able to use the link software to mess with the LED lights on them. I noticed the main node on the commander only has 1 slot for plugging in LEDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 The official Corsair answer is:Right now the only solution we offer - and it's a doozy - is to install a second Commander Mini. If you look in that thread you will see it's also possible to make a LED Y connector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spacedmonkey Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 So two commander mini's is not an option, I have the H100i GTX pump and that takes up one usb, so in order to just hook up one commander mini I planned on sacrificing the usb hook up on the front of my case. If the lighting node was still available for purchase that would solve it, but uh it's not...I don't trust soldering two cords together like that guy did without it being tested with the set up I'm describing. So I guess I'm just out of luck until corsair comes up with a fix for this. Makes me sad because I had grand visions of two Dominator Airflow platinums in my case T_T I have no real reason to even get the commander mini now I feel like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spacedmonkey Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Ahh man I also looked into that thing when I first ran into the problem of two usb ports. But I read several reviews on it and some people said it started smoking and failed. I can't imagine what using two mini commanders would put that thing through. I spent way too much money on this build to take short cuts and rig things up janky just to make some ram fans light up the right color. I'm just gonna say my prayers at night that corsair will come up with a nice fix for this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
