4 RGB lighting strips + 2 channel control module
2nd channel can be patched into RGB control on fan kit (disconnect 3 button input line from LED hub of Fan kit, insert 3 pin patch from Lighting Node Pro) which then allows the Lighting Node to fully control the LEDs of the Fans as well as the strips. Once Corsair LINK is installed, you can program the individual devices via the software
Commander Pro Product page here
6 Digital fan (4 pin PWM) and 2 RGB lighting controller, 2 USB m/b connectors, and 4 thermal probes.
Corsair Link software is used to control all of the attached *internal* RGB devices. External RGB (mice/keyboards/headsets/mousepads/etc.) are currently managed by CUE… but there is a rumor going around that Corsair is working on “one software to rule them all” which …would…be….AWESOME!!! LINK can potentially interfere with RGB LED memory *unless* you are using Corsair Vengeance RGB modules, in which case it will identify them and allow you to control them. Product page here
