Hello, So i am planning on buying a NZXT H440 case for my build, was wondering if there is a way to control the provided 3 pin fan hub via mother board dc mode rather than having them running at 100% all time
Thanks in advance

I while back I was thinking about the same thing. I hadn't seen this video beforehand but I made the same decision to go w/ the Luxe, one the the big reasons being the included Phanteks Hub does exactly what you want. Of course, Dimitri has a few more reasons.

The Phanteks Hub can use either PWM or DCV MoBo header output to control fans.

-With DCV header, it can control up to (6) case fans per header
-With PWMheader, it can control up to (11) case fans per header

On our Primo build...I use 3 of those hubs:

1st controls (6) fans on 140 x 420 radiator
2nd controls (4) fans on 140 x 280 radiator
3rd controls (6) case fans
