Question Cooling build H100i Pro RGB + 3x LL120 + 3x ML120

[viciousnake]

Hi guys,

I currently have a 465X that includes 3 LL120s on the front.

I plan to purchase an h100i Pro RGB Platinum that includes 2 ML120 Pro, and also purchase 1 more to complete the build.

My idea is this, put the LL fans on top and one on the back. The 3 ML fans on the front along with the radiator.

To control all of this, I need to control RGB on one hand and fan speed on the other.

1) Is it possible to connect all 6 fans to the Node Core that includes the 465X? Considering that they are two different models.

2) The h100i's pump allows up to 4 fans to be connected to control the RPM. Is it possible to get 2 x 3-way splitters and connect each one, to one of the corsair splitter ports? In this way I could connect the LL in one 3-way and the ML in the other.
3-way Splitter

After much thought, it was the best thing that occurred to me. Any better ideas without having to buy a Commander Pro?


Thanks!

No

I would advise on not mixing and matching fans and try and work with the same fans all around. No splitters coming off the pump unless it's the stock splitter and use a fan splitter for all the fans in your case.

The problem with that is LL are designed for airflow, not for mounting into a radiator.

Right now i've mounted my old h100i with the LL fans and it's about 8 degree hotter than with the fans it comes.
