Are there any options to link the Corsair AX860i or H1xxi AIO with the NZXT Phantom 820 fan controller? I’m looking for a way to combine them into one system or avoid having separate controllers. Please let me know if you need a simple solution!

Your psu fan? Usually thats independent unless you wanted to wire it yourself to your controller through the housing Thats a quiet psu anyways, I wouldnt worry about it... Unless you mean something else, thats all I can think of

Yes, you can view the information from the case fan controller in the Corsair link.

It seems you're referring to a specific controller, possibly the Corsair Commander or Commander Mini Fan Controller. Could you clarify what you mean by "not that I know of"? Let me know how I can assist!

When connecting fans to a device with Link support, the answer is yes. However, you'll see speeds for just one fan because most controllers or hubs use a single cable.

You mean connecting the NZXT fans directly to the link instead of using the fan controller? That way, you can control them with hardware or software. The fan controller uses a SATA cable and supports up to four channels, each delivering up to 15 watts.

You manage the fans via the link, but they appear as one fan. It functions more like a hub than a controller.

I understand, the adjustment in RPM on the case hardware should appear in the link software, offering control over the fan via the hub. To make it work for multiple fans, you'll need to set up a multi-fan configuration. This setup is compatible with the Hue system. The digital 15WPC 4-channel controller mentioned in the specs suggests it can be managed through the link software as well.

It seems you're having trouble with Hue only supporting knobs and not being fully managed by software. If a newer version comes with a USB port, it would change things. The same applies to fan controllers—they should include a USB connector for true individual control. A fan header typically has just a few connectors: ground, voltage, RPM, and for PWM fans, the PWM signal. Hubs work by receiving signals from one fan and forwarding them to a controller, motherboard, or software. That’s why hubs are better suited for identical case fans.

Can they design a component that enables this connection? In theory, just a chip would suffice for proper communication.
