Question corsair 465x +7x ll120

[Omar nagdee]

hi,
i have 7 fans. i got a rgb hub and a fan for free from my friend.
the 465x comes with the node core and i have 6 fans installed.
all 7 fans work but only 6 light up. if i buy the commander pro and connect it to the rgb hub will the 7th fan rgb work.
or do corsair sell a 2 way rgb splitter that i can buy.
TIA

The max you can do with the commander pro or the core version is 6. You could pair the core with the Commander pro's USB port which is what the Core needs, the 6 fans that need the RGB wire connect to one core, the 7th fan can connect to another core. So even if you managed to plug the 6 fans the 7th fan's PWM is in question...

The node core doesn't need a commander to work it plugs straight into the mobo

This ebay link is of a node core which is like the rgb hub but instead of sata and 3pin to 3pin the node core is sata and 3pin to usb 2.0 which automatically cancels the lightning node that would come with a triple pack.
