That’s it. That’s the one. We shall call her The Berserker.

Personally if it does what you need it to maybe wait for the new chipset

Those are stunning. 24.8dBA though? That's quite impressive. I wonder if that's the noise of the LEDs flickering or if that's with the fan on at a decent level of operation. Might put up a challenge for the MLs if it is.

Very exciting! Love the LL's. I'm tempted to buy a pack to put in the front of my 275R AF but I just can't bring myself to spend £50 on fans 😬

You know it makes sense.........

I did. And look how happy I am!

So… Corsair 465X comes with 3 of those, and you’ve bought another. If you really like how they look and you want to try for the full iCue lighting pattern integration let me know, you’ll have to buy another LL120 and I can send you my spare. Replace the ML120s with them and you should have access to some glorious lighting via Scenes 👍

Look what just turned up on my orders page 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁

Hypothetical - To pretend to contemplate something you've already decided is being done.

Or is there another meaning?

so if i had a full set of these I could connect them all to the commander, rather than having the 2 ML's on it and the rest on the motherboard fan headers like it is now?

That’s correct. Your RGB cables need to go in the correct order of 1-6 in the Commander Pro headers (I went for bottom front fan as number 1, going upwards and back in order so the rear exhaust was number 6). But it doesn’t matter which order the fan cables go into their Commander Pro headers. Allows for full fan setting control within iCue without using additional software… and the all important linked lighting effects 😁

Oh yes I like the idea of that, make life a lot easier, as a couple of times I've lost control of the RGB on the RAM due to software conflict

If you decide to give it a go and want my spare LL120 just let me know 👍
