“Can the commander core run LL fans and the included fans at the same time? I'm hoping to replace all of my lighting and fan control hubs with this.”

Hi 4to25characters, We do not recommend mixing and matching fans on the Commander Core as you can control one type of RGB fan at a time per hub. If you'd like assistance, please reach out to our support team: support.corsair.com -Brian
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. I learned the hard way that you need separate controllers for each types of fan. For example I have the 2 ML fans included with this AIO and purchased the 3-pack SP Pro fans. I have all 5 fans plugged in for power at the controller for the AIO but as for the RGB connector, I have the 2 ML fans connected to the AIO controller and the 3 SP Pro fans connected to the controller that came with them. Unless you have the space for it, it's best you get all the fans in your computers to be the same or else you're gonna have a forest of controllers and wires in the back of your PC. This is the case for any of their iCUE or non-iCUE controllers. You have to separate all your fans by model number.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.As Corsair has pointed out mixing of fans is not advised and also mixing of fans of different sizes is not advised e.g. HD120 and HD140 on the same controller is not suggested. Best to stay with same models and sizes throughout or use separate controllers to segregate differences. I do not have a Commander Pro Core, but based on what I understand of this controller it just incorporates the RGB hub within rather than separate so if you follow the above advice you will likely need multiple controllers (Cores) or multiple CoPros and RGB hubs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes... The Included Commander will run a total of six (6) Corsair fans and their RGB plugs. I am glad I decided to go Corsair for the case and fans on this build as the Commander only accepts Corsair type fan plugs.
