Is there anything wrong with chaining one of these fans to the links cp cooler radiator? Does this negatively affect the cooler? And if so how? Recently did a build with this system and can’t hook up all 15 links fans due to hub limits and usb 2 header limitations. I have a 4 way splitter but can’t run any additional fans either way since each side of the hub only allows 7 and one side for the cooler. That means I can only run the cooler and 7 fans max for my full size tower that can hold 17 fans. Not sure what to do
Hi bp328i, I am 1000% in agreement with that statement! Like the SWAFAN EX from thermaltake, I would like to see them include swappable blades with the fan. Buy one fan and you can choose and change as necessary. But, at least, make two versions of the fans. Thanks for watching and your support!
It's like you said, RX are the "performance fans". They are Corsair's attempt at keeping up with the likes of Noctua and Phanteks. They are much better for radiator and airflow use. QX are the showcase fans. They look fantastic but aren't well suited for serious watercooling or airflow applications - or rather there are far better, quieter, and cheaper fans for that.
Hi jayd8743, yes, iCUE LINK makes life easer in many ways.....it adds a few complications with getting the right cables and connectors, but overall it accomplishes what they set out to do. I've enjoyed working with it despite cussing a few times that I didn't have the right cable with me, i've always been able to make it work, haha! Thanks for watching!!!
I recently switch from the QX to RX fans, RX fans are defiantly not as pretty, but both CPU and GPU temp have dropped 5c.

Corsair really needs to start making reverse blade fans

Hi macktheinterloper, very well said. I'm in agreement with that. Thanks for watching!!!
Hell yes that's nice... Just about to install a bunch of normally wired fans and an AIO cooler into my system but these look nicer to setup.
