Hey guys check out the new CORSAIR LL RGB SERIES of fans, just did a review on them.
th-cam.com/video/-SmmHS3Wjoo/w-d-xo.html
Let me get this straight... To gain full control over the RGB potantion of the HD120 fans.. You have to use BOTH the commander pro, and the Hub that came with the RGB fans?? then what is the point of the commander pro!? why not buy the Lighting node hub instead? that is way cheaper?
i JUST ordered 4 LED strips and the commander pro, in hopes of getting rid of the small fan hub (i have same setup as you, 460x case, 6 HD120 fans, 4 strips) so i really hope for an answer here, even if it's a longshot. =)
Hello, please tell me, this is the case of crystal 460x rgb and RAM vengeance rgb and how did you manage to put high memory stakes? I saw other reviews of this case and there such high memory slats did not clog, interfered with the cooling radiator?
did you end up needing the lighting node pro thing, on top of the commander pro unit, or no?
have the same case and fans nicely done
It does fit. Take out the SSD tray. You only have one anyways.. Then move the SSD someplace else...
i have the same case and kinda the same set up. with the commander pro what i did is remove the SSD bracket and mounted the pro back there. i only have 1 SSD and one storage hard drive so its no biggie for me. cable management was a bitch to do because of all the damn cables but the final product is well worth it
This is way better then the nzxt grid 3
have the HD140RGB but have 2 HD120 (going on top of the H115i) and the node and commander coming.........just glad my case doesnt have 2 glass side panels...the wiring is ugly and thanks for showing that
RGB. RGB. RGB.
thanks for the video! this disspelled so many doubts
Pleasure, glad it helped :)
At 11:45 next to the middle fan looks to be an RGB controller that is unnecessary. I think it came with the original SP120’s you replaced. You should see if the Commander Pro will fit there if you remove that controller.
lol, love how he's using a steak knife to open all the packaging
what do you think is better for fan quietness, keeping the pc cool, and cooler color effects? 2 top ML fans and 4 LL fans? Or 6 LL fans?
You definitely need a bigger case
Do you have hd fan in the rear to? Or the commender control the RGB of the AF fan?
I swear..just builded up my new Pc which is comming soon..than i found this video and it looks exactly like yours....I CAN'T WAIT ANYMORE!!!
Cable management is hell in that case
lol no. cable management is hell. no mater the case. here your work is just on display
Emile Greyling in some cases its easier to hide
Am I the only one that noticed the 2 empty 2.5 caddy’s on the back that could’ve been removed?
In 2022, that is no longer considered 'RGB overload' 😂
Can I also control the LED strips via Corsair iCue?
I finally gonna build the corsair commander pro whit the expansion led strips and the 6 LL120 fans in the 460x and I cut the left half of the SSD bracket for the commander pro. Now I can only put 2 SSD and that works great
Hey man great video! Nice to see South Africans getting into the TechTuber space. I have a question. I have the commander pro already and am looking to get the lighting node pro as well. Can the LED strips connect directly into the Commander Pro and can I avoid putting the Node into my case. I have a small form factor case and would like to cut some cable clutter.
Thanks man :)For the LED strips you can connect them straight into the Commander Pro, but the HD fans needs their hub.
You could have removed one or both of those SSD brackets on the backside of your case to put the Commander Pro in. They aren't even being used!
did anyone else have problems with the screws going in?
Am I being stupid? The usb header block on the Lighting Pro looks like it won't fit the larger usb headers on the Commander Pro
hey I ned some help I just got the corsair ml120 pro white led but don't know how to replace it with my exhaust fan my mother board is=ga-78lmt-usb3 r2
Hi i have a problem with syncing all my 24 fans, i dont know why they dont sync automatically but they just dont, and the rainbowwave just doesnt look that good when they all run unsynced
Anyone got a solution for that?
Good video. I was watching to see how you connected the commander pro and all the nodes and you skipped over that. :(
Same. Currently looking for help on that lol
Same
Yep...
The main portion of the video you blaze thru.....
Same same same same lol
i just open mine few sec ago its almost 1am here so ill be hooking mines in the morning so thats why iam watching you now i have the node hook up already only thing i dont have yet is the fans
BEST WAY of adding full rgb this with no messing about with 10 different softwares
you need an nzxt kraken cpu cooler
Haytham Almajid Too much crappy Corsair
Why is it crappy 🤔
awesome video man but..could the commander not have fitted undernesth the PSU cover or to the side of the PSU?
Unfortunately not. I wanted to put it at the back but the panel would not close then.
Just ordered the Crystal 460X RGB w/ 3 x SP120 RGB fans & Lightening Node Pro! Now I'm literally watching tons of videos of these products until they arrive.
Thank god Powered by sata not Molex
Corsair HD120 RGB LED Case Fan OR DEEPCOOL RF120 3in1 3X120mm RGB LED PWM Fans?
Essa Alawadi HD120 RGB, they provide better airflow
Dear good eveninv, an a question, i have 6 sp120rgb and i want make another sp120rgb, but the command got only 6 enter for the rgb fan, how i can take the 4 pin splitter for the commander to the rgb of fan? thank u
when those dogs started to bark it scared the shit out of me :D
Hi..i like your review, and i want to know what kind of pin use the cable that control the effect of the leds that is connected to the HUB..beacause i have an ADDRESABLE 5V headder on my motherboard and i think if i connect the HUB to the ADDRESABLE 3pin of 5V of my notherboard could manage the leds effect through the software of the motherboard and work at the same time...helpme to know if this is possible..THANKS for help me.
Hi! I want do connect 5 fans on the wall without turning fans, just rgb in the frame. Like some of visual rgb. I have 5 rgb fans Raijintek. They are 4 pins. Any idea what power supply I should use for hub? I want convert 240V (UK) to 12V like SATA as original was. Don't know how many amps. Any suggestions, please?
with Case is this
If I want to connect an rgb fan but I don't have an rgb connection on my board will my fan lights work and can I change them through the software?
Where did you get all the fan headers to power the fans.
20:00 You should swap the order of the 1st 3 fans on the controller, doesn't seem like they're in sequence.
for a moment I thought a dog (do not own any pets besides some fish in an outdoor pond which I only have because the pond was there before I moved in) had wandered in to my house through an open window
why didnt they just make a remote for the fans and so the commander pro is useless to buy then?
do they have Music Sync ?
One of the main reason I didn't get this case not much space went for the 680x much bigger though at a price. Good video 👍
So. What if you have 7 fans?
Correct me if i´m wrong, because i'm a little confused. So the corsair commander pro allows you to adjust fan speed? And for the rgb lighting effects you need the corsair rgb fan hub? If you add some rgb lighting strips you have to use corsair lighting node pro? And to combine them all you need corsair commander pro, corsair rgb fan hub and corsair lighting pro? I mean you can combine these 3 things? Sorry for some bad Englisch, thnx!
Used your video for some pointers for when I start putting together the RGB with the Commander Pro in my own PC soon.
Sadly I only have SATA wires and one is on my HDD and the other is on my rgb strips need an extra for my fan what would be a good power supply that would have more than two I have a ATNG 600w 80 plus power supply what would be a better one with more SATA
Lol nvm just realized my motherboard has 6 of them 😂😂😂 love my msi Z270-A Pro
Can you just have node pro and connect that to the fan hub to adjust rgbs or do you need the commander to do it for the fans
Do you need the Commader Pro to make the fans light rainbow?
No you can use the included Node Pro in the 3 pack. That will control all the lighting for you. The commander pro has a 6 PWM fan hub built in so it makes it alot easier to power the fans.
In corsair 570x ??
The commander pro already has 2 slots for the LED strips, so it makes the Lighting node pro obsolete.
It is a lightning node pro and fan hub combined into one device.
Brian J. From what I understand, the 6 fan ports on the Commander Pro don’t have RGB functionality, they are for controlling fan speeds etc... of the 2 LED ports on the Commander Pro you have to stick all the fans into 1 using a 6-fan hub, and the combined LED strips go into the other. I’m not 100% sure, I’m building my PC next week and trying to understand this bullshit
@@ImNobblez The Corsair 500D SE (RGB case with the glass front panel) comes with 3 RGB fans and the Commander Pro included. I am also kind of confused here
@@ImNobblez OK It's all clear to me now.
Corsair LL120 fans apparently have 2 cables. (1 for the RGB, and 1 for the RPM control.)
Below is a diagram how everything is supposed to be connected.

@@BrianJ. the imgur is not showing up, mind trying again?? thanks
Can someone please let me know how the heck he connected the pc fans to whatever program he is using to change the color from the pc? From what I have now , I have them changing from the little button included that cycles between colors , modes etc..
+Paul Morgan You have to use the commander Pro and then you can control the lighting in the Corsair Link software
dont even need commander pro for that
We Do Tech How many colours does it offer as i am thinking of getting them in the future but want full colour customizability as i am attracted to the idea of nigh infinite colour schemes since its a pure black case.
So to control fan speeds through Corsair software Oh, you need to use the commander Pro for powering the fans and have a smaller node thing for the RGB? I'm going to be buying these but it's really confusing me
Can you fit a 280mm rad in this case i can see he has a 240mm rad in it
You can yes, at the top there is space.
looks like a christmas tree
you could have shown where you tie the wires and on the motherboard also the fans.
Can you conect 6 rgb fan without the commander pro ?
if you have some other type of han hub to power the fans. But you will still need the Node Pro then to control the lighting.
Whats the case called?
I dont like the honeycomb patter on the dust filter. It looks easy to cut off. Can you verify that? Is the mesh glued on to the plastic tray (filter)?
Yeah they are fixed, so if you want to get rid of it you have to make your own dust filter
Can I have 4 fans instead of 3
In the process of ordering this stuff now only thing i'm worried about is cable management making everything look tidy is going to be a pain in the ass.
Also does anyone know when Snyc it is going to be available needing CUE and Corsair link to control everything is dam annoying.
BartiemusNZ Sync It will arrive in late 2017. I guess it will support only MSI motherboards
What's the motherboard you're using?
So, I can only do this with the commander pro? Bruh, I just want the rainbow effect and I just bought these 120 fans. Wtf!
awesome, btw your fans are connected in the wrong order for the effects
so i got the commander pro, do i still need the node that comes with the fans??
Hi, can you connect the rgb strips with the node pro. I'm getting the 220t corsair case that comes with it pre installed, its the one with the 6 slots, i will have 3 used and with 11 empty slot I hope I can plug the cordsair light strip to sync it with the fans rgb. Any thoughts on this ?
They look amazing. We just ordered 2 corsair hd 140s for my wife's pc, and the led strips, should be here in a few days. I put NZXT Hue + and 3 AER RGB 140 fans in mine, but the corsair no doubt look sweeter. Can't wait.
Can you pls link thé case
dude you can move the 2 tb drive to one of the extra 2.5 mounting bracket behind mb
What the name of this case?
You had the old controller there for the sp120 fans you could have removed.
What motherboard do you have
Did u take out the rgb hub that came with case?
I got headache of all those caples...
POR ESO MISMO SIEMPRE ESCOJO GABINETES FULL TOWER, LOS MEDIA TORRE NO ME GUSTAN PORQUE TODO QUEDA BIEN APRETADO
So how do you wire everything?
All the fans plugs into Commander Pro to control the speed? The rgb wires from the fans plug into command unit and that
plugs into Node Pro then to the motherboard through the usb 2?
you first plug the Commander pro onto the USB 2.0 Header. then plug the 3 pin or 4 pin onto the commander pro. on the pro, you are left with 2 extra USB 2.0 headers, you use those ports for the AIO.
for RGB strips, just by extensions, the pros has an inbuilt lighting node pro, this is what controls not only the RGB, but also the fan speed
Cool a south African
Lame as hell. I wasted 22:06 of my life that I wont be getting back anytime soon. I thought this would actually show how t install.
Your joking right?
i was going to get the SP120 rgb, now after watching this, i want the HD 120 fans
+CGNT 175 The SP fans are nice but the HDs are just so much cooler.
Can the SP120 rgb fans still be connected to the Commander Pro? I was going to get a commander pro and connect 3 HD120 rgb, 3 SP120 rgb (included with the Crystal 570X case) and 4 lighting strips from the corsair extension kit. I know that would mean I could control the lights on the HD120s and the strips in Corsair Link, but do the SP120s work in Link as well?
Jack Williams Everything from corsair works with corsair link. Although, the commander pro only has two led controller ports.
Clorox Bleach thanks for clearing that up 😄. So how would a setup like this be connected? I know you mentioned that it has only 2 LED connections but wouldn't each fan (presuming I have 6) connect to a fan connection each because there are six?
Jack Williams Yes that will work. That's exactly what I have. The HD and SP fans have to be on different controllers though. Plug the HD fans into ports 1-3 on the hub that comes with in the box, then plug the SP fans into ports 1-3 on the hub that came with the case. Now unplug the hub from the controller that it's connected to out of the box and plug it into one of the 2 "LED" ports on the commander pro. Plug the HD hub into the other "LED" port on the commander pro and you're set. You'll no longer be able to control the fan lights from the case, but Link will control everything. Enjoy!
can i replace the fans on a aio raditor with the hd fans? does it have to be the corsair radiator or can i use the kraken 62
You should make a video to show what goes where other then that awesome look.
Looks super! Trying to find a Dutch guy who can build this into my pc i'm living near eindhoven
how does one get started like this? what channels do you need to folllow to start doing reviews for guys like corsair etc.
What do you mean again? can you elaborate? =)
Thank u for the video
Just one question
How you installed the cpu cooler at the top of case ?
I have same case and i put it behind the 3fans at the front however this place not good as much dust passed the filter to radiator
Appreciate your feedback and thanks once again
+SA3OODI2007 Hey pleasure man. You can check my video where I build the entire pc. Should be $2000 build video, hope it helps.
i still dont get the difference between the commander and node...how hard is it to make one device to control everything
The Node just does not have a fan hub and thermal meters ports thats kinda it.
Commander pro is an All in one controller, controls pretty much everything from LED to fans
Node Pro only controls LEDS
Sacrificing Disc Drives for RGB=Worth it
I was wondering - I have 3xLL120, 3xLL140 and 4 Corsiar LED Strips. All I have is one Lightning Node Pro, One RGB Controller and a Corsair Commander Pro.
Do I need anything else?
Will I need a fanhub?
I have 9 fans that I need to control can 1 commander pro be plugged into another to allow continuity and allow the 9 fan installation?
You can but to a point, they cant connect to each other. But because they use the USB header on your motherboard you can connect another. Like I have the commander pro for my 6 fans + 4 Led strip and then I also have just the normal Node Pro for an addition 2 LED strips. The only problem you are going to have is that the software is limited to 6 lighting units per device. So you wont be able to sync all 9 fans on 1 go. You will need to set the effect per commander pro which might add a bit of a delay between each.
cheers for the reply I'm pretty much stuffed then :(
Nice PC. I would like to use the same RGB stuff in my build. Just don't have the money.
So i got 3 of the HD120 inside my case and 3 of the LL120 infront of my case. The HD120 are RGB channel 1-2-3 and the LL120 are 4-5-6. The HD120 are working fine with the commandor pro but the LL120 Arent. LL120 (4) is working with rgb but i can't control it and it's only the middle light. LL120 5 and 6 arent working at all. Help please!
Did you make that stand for your monitor or buy it? I'll be getting a black-brown Linnmon desk from Ikea and I would like something like that but something to match my desk.
The entire desk I built myself. We don't have Ikea in South Africa :( so had to do it manually
Hi, I loved your videu. I bought this commander, I'm not able to install it for 2 days, I connect the fan power cable in the commander pro, the leds on the controller hd 120, and the controller on the led 2 of the commander. What am I missing, please help me !!!!
has to reset this fans, because I have 4 and now bugged the controller, only 1 of the 4 fans works, and only on channel 1 of the controller, and the third one works only on channel 1!
that looks lit (no pun intended)
Hi. I just bought only one fan of Corsair LL120 to see how it was. Would it work only one fan with corsair link?
Yes will still work fine. Just connect it to either the commander pro or node pro and you are set.
I meant I only bought a fan with no commander or nope. Should I have the kit?
How many WATTS per channel (fans) can it handle? The Corsair website is void of this important information
Are those fans really that loud??
No they if you run them around 800-1000 they are silent.
before rgb = 1 sub
after rgb = over 9000
Nani?!!!
