To convert the Corsair connector to a standard 3pin ARGB, you will the cables from this guy
https://www.ebay.fr/usr/piratedog_tech?_…=p2047675.l2559
or you can use Wago's, learn how to solder...
With the upcoming FUSION upgrade to aquasuite, this will all be easily controlled.
- The radiators should probably be left as is
- Fans, assuming:
if you are happy with the fans, you could leave them alone.
- non-RGB fans as you did not mention the model
- 3 fans per radiator and 2 case
- controlled by motherboard
If you wanted RGB fans you could change to the Corsair LL series.
There are several options for control:
- Keep fans and continue control with motherboard
- Keep fans, but control with an OCTO to use system parameters for control (e.g. curve controller tied to coolant/ambient ΔT).
- Change fans to LL series, and control fans & RGB with aquacomputer gear.
- GPU and waterblock to be replaced.
- CPU water block could remain the same or upgraded depending on desire & budget.
- I am not sure if the Corsair RGB strips are compatible with the RGBpx system - hopefully someone with knowledge will comment.
An option to control the fans & fan's/strip's RGBs:
- an OCTO
- a Farbwerk 360
- 3 Splitty4s
- 2 three way PWM fan splitter
- the High Flow NEXT you mentioned
- coolant & ambient temperature sensors
Fan RPM control
RGB control
- OCTO port 1 > Splitty4 #1 > 3 way PWM splitter > 3 fans radiator 1
- OCTO port 2 > Splitty4 #2 > 3 way PWM splitter > 3 fans radiator 2
- OCTO port 3 > Splitty4 #3 > case fan front & rear
- OCTO RGBpx port 1 > Splitty4 #1 > fans 1-4 RGB connectors
- OCTO RGBpx port 2 > Splitty4 #2 > fans 5-6 RGB connectors
- Farbwerk 360 RGBpx port 1 > splitty 4 #3 > fans 7-8 & Corsair RGB strips daisy chained (if total RGBs <90)
- ditch the lighting nodes core
Best to wait for more feedback on this thread as I may be in error on parts.
