I am running 9 QL fans on a mainboard USB...
The prerequisite is that you either:
- Corsair Commander Pro (you have to connect all the fans somewhere).
-> I use 2 Commander Pro and 2 Lightning Node Pro to be able to address each of the 9 fans and 5 LED strips individually. You can connect the Commander Pros "in series" and the Lightning Nodes Core and LED strips to the LED connections of the Commander Pro. I have everything on 1 USB header of the mainboard. Works perfectly.
or alternatively:
- PWM and RGB splitter cable, then they run on the same channel.
