Hey guys, quick question about RGB fans.
I currently have 6 x aRGB Raidmax fans that come with their own RGB controller. While they work fine and RGB works as intended through SignalRGB, I get a bit jealous when I see people running Commander Pro rigs where the fans can be individually addressed. Currently, I have 2 x controllers (1 for each set of 3 fans) connected to my Gigabyte Z690 Gaming connected to the D_LED headers. This means that I can address the fans, but only as a set of 3 (the effect is duplicated for each controller) obviously. Signal RGB also doesn't pick up the Raidmax controller as it's most likely only a (unsupported) splitter, so I add it as a single fan device and specify the number of LEDs for 1 fan.
Is it only the Corsair Commander that allows for each fan to be seen as a separate channel or is it the way it connects? Probably to a USB header?
Will something like the Coolermaster RGB controller give me the same functionality of the Commanders?
I'd love to get a commander and 3 pack fans, but their cost locally is near $200 per 3 pack
Hope my question makes sense
Thank you
