Hi guys

Just building a system with a Nzxt Kraken X52 and the Corsair 460X RGB.

I'm wanting to mount my rad at the front of the case (only place it will fit) but I want to use my Corsair RGB fans not the included NZXT fans. They fit physically but the included Nzxt fans have 4 pin headers and the Corsair are only 3 pin. My question is will these work and will the cam software be able to control their speed? I don't want to use the included Nzxt fans as they are not RGB.

Another option I have would be to perhaps use my Nzxt Grid fan controller to control the Corsair fans and just bypass the Nzxt pump altogether. Would this work? Or would the AIO error thinking no fans are connected? Or is this just a bad idea anyway?

Any suggestions or tips very much appreciated and welcomed!

Thanks Ricky55
