Replacing Radiator Fans

TheRealArchi · Oct 27, 2016

I replaced the radiator fans by the HD120 Corsair ones that have a Control Panel included. I just wanted to ask that is it okay if I do the following:
I want to control the RGB of my fans so I connect them to the Control Panel.
The power supply USB pin will be connected to my PowerSupply.
What I will do is put the SPEED of my fans to MAX even if my processor is not overcloaking or anything.
This way I can control their color.

Is there any other alternative??
I could connect my Fans to the motherboard but I do not know if the RGB will be controllable from my PC. Well, I think it's not coz why include a control panel thingie if it can be done from PC, right ?

This is a very specific question and most people on here probably don't have experience with Corsair's proprietary hardware. However, why do you need to run the fans at max in order to control the colors? Personally, I'd be bothered by the noise, and I find light pollution distracting when I'm trying to watch a movie or play a game.

It's just that they are the only source to give my PC Case a color. And I don't know why but I like it. Anyways, what if it's possible to connect all those 3 fans to the Hub and the Hub to a PWM controll on the motherboard ?
I can give you the cables from the Fans HUB:
Fans connected to HUB.
HUB connected to Controller.
The HUB got a SATA Cable to be connected to the PSU.
The Controller got a 6 pins thingie ( not holes but the pointing thingies ).
Is there a way to connect them all to somewhere on my motherboard so I can control color and the speed will be cotrolled by the MB ?

I can't answer this one for you, you might need to take that up with Corsair support as it's likely specific to your exact hardware.
