I decided to go for an aesthetically pleasing build for the first time, so I decided to buy two Commander Core XTs to give my Corsair LL120s the full effect. iCue software delivered more than expected, the special effects and customizable wave patterns on the LEDs look superb. My only suggestion is that it only supports up to 6 fans, many builds nowadays are using 7 fans. Thankfully it has an extra usb 2.0 header so I could daisy chain them with ease. It required a fair amount of cable management to get all to fit in my Lian Li O11 Dynamic Evo. I did like the fact that they can magnetically stick to the inside of any surface on the case, which was helpful. I still have room for 6 more LED fans on my AIO cooler, I would need to buy a third fan controller to make it happen. If Corsair made a fan controller that supports 8 fans and also includes the extra USB 2.0. header that would solve this problem.

This is an absolute game changer for Corsair fans. It automatically detects the fan type (if made by Corsair) and easily let’s you set PWM speeds for each fan or all fans together. My rig has 12 fans, and without this thing I would have wires hanging out everywhere. The integrated RGB and fan hub makes installation an absolute breeze. Corsair’s software has vastly improved throughout the years, and this is simply a must have if you are building a PC with Corsair RGB fans/AIOs. iCue is amazingly simple, and you can tell Corsair really put time into revamping it. If you’re building a Corsair rig with Corsair fans, get this. It’s a no brainer.

Works as expected. Glad corsair decided to make this as the commander pro didnt meet all expectations. With this your able to monitor 2 device temps, run rgb strips or another corsair rgb device. And its great for powering 6 corsair rgb fans for fan and rgb. So no need to use the additional rgb controller that comes with ll or ml fans.
