Hello, this is a two part question:

I have the Corsair Obsidian 1000D case which contains spots for up to 10 120mm fans and 3 140mm fans.

Question 1: Do I need an extra Commander Pro to get the fans working?

The fans:
2 ML120 non-RGB fans (for mounting a radiator block to the back of the case).
2 ML120 RGB fans to cool radiator
3 LL140mm RGB fans at the top of the case
8 LL120mm RGB fans in the front of the case

I have enough lighting nodes and RGB hubs the get the RGB lights to work.

Question 2: Do I have enough power from my 750w PSU to power everything?

PSU: Corsair SF750

Thanks for the help.

The SF750 is intended for the Mini-ITX side of the case. The 1000D is designed to house simultaneously a EATX and Mini-ITX in the same case. I built the Mini-ITX side first. Thanks for the post.
 
Understood. I always forget about these dual system cases. So as long as the lighting is getting love from someplace besides the Commander pro, you should be fine. Seems as though that unit can do 12 fans by itself or 6 and 6 if using it for lighting. I believe that is what I'm seeing. Otherwise, you might need a second unit.
