About this deal

Summarized: I put the Commander Core XT and the Commander Node Core on my 2 internal Mainboard USB 2.0 Ports. Then I put my AIO USB-Plug on the USB-Port on the Commander Core XT. Lastly I connected the PWM-Plugs of 3 of my 5 QL Fans, which are connected to the Core XT, to an external PWM Splitter (which handles a total of 6 QL-PWMs.) 2 QL-PWM-Plugs are connected to my AIO and the last 2 QL-PWM-Plugs are directly connected to the Mainboard. Finally, the LCD kit is connected to the CPU_FAN port of the mainboard, and all controllers/repeaters are connected to the power supply via the SATA power cable. As for having both in a system, I've done it and it works. On an AMD system (B450). With 2 CoCores and 1 CoCoreXT at one point, in fact. What version of iCUE are you running?

With the above wiring guide, you can see how to connect an H150i ELITE LCD XT AIO with 4x QL120 RGB fans. The diagram was designed around this example, but the principles can easily be used for other configurations, too. Here's a breakdown of what's going on. If I had your same configuration, I would mount the H150i ELITE CAPELLIX atop. Using its included COMMANDER CORE, I would then connect the H150i's three fans and three front fans. The remaining four fans would connect to the COMMANDER CORE XT. This is illustrated below. My reasoning behind having the front and top fans on the same controller is for iCUE's sequential lighting effect. Would I be better off connecting the 6 on the rad to the Com Core 1,2,3 via PWM Splitters, the 6 on the front and side via the PWM Repeater into Com Core 4, and the rear fan into Com Core 5. This would leave me with 1 free fan header on the Com Core, but if I am correct I could control all fans then, knowing that the front and side ones would be at the same speed but controllable all the same. Hey' can anyone help me with a issue I'm having which I noticed after replacing the first Faulty Fan. Buy a couple of selfpowered fan hubs (like the one you linked) and group each radiator's fan so they act the same. This will take up 3 CoPro's ports.

Example - iCUE 5000x RGB withH150i Elite LCD (XT) and 4x QL120 RGB fans

I bought an NZXT internal USB hub: Neither the Commander Core XT nor the Lightning Node Core have been detected, no matter what other configs I tried on the USB-Ports. The NZXT hub does not detect the Corsair Hubs. When I plugged my Gigabyte Aio on the Hub, it has been detected. So the hub is working, just not with the corsair products. Controls up to six PWM RGB fans, allowing you to set custom fan curves and lighting profiles that adjust based on system temperatures - including Zero RPM mode to keep the noise down at low loads. Otherwise I do not know what to do. Obviously the Commander Core is the ideal product because I would rather have just two sata devices plugged into my case instead of 4 or 5. SOLUTION: I figured "Hey, maybe the Core XT cant handle the PWM, since its disconnecting under workload". So I put every PWM-Connector, except for 2, on a PWM-Splitter... And it worked. No more disconnects since then.

yes the commander core and pro are different, if you dont think so then you are an idiot. the Core can handle 6 fans completely with the PWM and RGB. the Pro can handle 6 fans for power, 2 for RGB 4 temp sensors and 2 9 pin internal USB hubs. So far, nothing at all works. I still have full control over the 6 intake fans and no control or recognition of the 4 exhaust fans. Hi, I'm doing a build on a 5000D airflow. I bought a H150i Elite so I this for 6 of the fans. If I want to do 10 fans would you recommend buying another and going 6 fans on 1 and 4 on the other? This seems like it should be OK to me, but I was curious how icue would know which fans were specific to the Aio and if it was really OK to connect the case fans to the remaining empty ports (or if the included commander core only had 6 ports for the situation of using 3x push/pull on the 360 aio) because commander PRO and commander CORE are two different things. Commander CORE doesn't even have an external rgb hub which makes it two different scenarios. Why did u bother to answer if you're not knowledgeable?

Apple cancelled this, now what?

Install the 4 Intel standoff screws into your motherboard. Make sure all 4 screws are tightened until secure. On the 2nd USB Lighting Node I just have the 2 QL 140mm Fans lighting wires connected, because I have the Fans powered by the NZXT Z63 and I can control the RPM through NZXT CAM. Setup: AMD 5800X / Gigabyte B550 Aorus Master / Gigabyte Aorus Waterforce 280X / Corsair Commander Core XT (with 3xQL 140 and 2xQL 120 Fans + 2xCorsair LS100 450mm and 2x Corsair LS100 250 mm) / Corsair Lightning Node Core (with 3xQL 140 and 2xQL 120 Fans) / Corsair iCue 7000X / Lian Li Strimer Plus (Mainboard + Triple VGA, NOT connected to Corsair) / MSI 3080 Ti Suprim X / AMD 5800X / 16 GB DDR4 Gigabyte Aorus (4400 Mhz CL 19)
