Cooler Master ARGB LED Controller with 4 x 3-Pin Ports - Multiple Colour Effects, Thermal Detection Mode, 4-Pin RGB Device Compatible

Plugged the 3 fans that come with the GameMax F15M case + 3 DeepCool CF120 fans into this controller because my board has only the 12V rgb header, added quite a few extra cables to do so, but the case made cable management easy. The DeepCool fans do have a proprietary argb connector, but they plug into their splitter and that splitter can be connected directly to the 3-pin argb header on the motherboard - which in my case went into the CoolerMaster argb controller. My only gripe is with the app, Cooler Master MasterPlus, I have v102.0208.0317 and it seems that if I hibernate my PC then wake it up, the app crashes and when I reopen it the fans configuration is lost (that scheme thing with the 4 A slots to which you can attach fans and such), but the controller remembers the last color setup applied, so this app bug is just a minor inconvenience for when I want to change the colors.

This controller supports both RGB and ARGB devices. It comes with plenty of cables to allow for fully independent control with the device only, or through motherboard RGB headers, or through the USB 2.0 motherboard header. Their are also a few male to male connectors in the pack for easy connection. It's a well thought out product and good value, especially considering potential future changes to your system and the lack of support that both cheaper and more expensive controllers offer.

Right. Item came in time and had amazing packaging- item arrived with a rattle noise coming from inside product worked like a dream yet only using the usb connection to the motherboard has some issues as the motherboard 4 pin to connect to motherboard didn’t work for me I believe mine was damaged sadly as it was a very clean product until that, also when connected on the master plus software showed up fine everything worked connected through the usb yet very very few choices of colours only around 10 different choices and many don’t even work! Perfect product only believe mine was damaged sadly but a big let down from the software aspect- would recommend only if yours works when connected to motherboard as software is a big let down. I also believe product is overpriced a little as it isn’t fantastic for the big price tag.

Works and is easy to set up. Although does not have many fan ports

In theory, this would be a fine piece of kit. What they don't tell you is that to make it work, you need to install a 1000 megabyte piece of software. (Which is not in the slim instruction leaflet) It comes with vulnerable kernel drivers and the antivirus doesn't like it. Even if you go through all the hoops of disabling your PC's antivirus, the CoolerMaster app still gets stuck on startup. I've reinstalled it 10+ times in 30 minutes and I'm just about done with CoolerMaster's overpriced garbage. No matter how good the hardware is, it's pointless if the software is bad. And this is as bad as it gets. And really, why would some RGB controller software be 1 GB in size? It's because they can get away with it. The worst part is that the web is full of people complaining about their app.

I had some ARGB fans but only RGB header on my motherboard and this means that I am able to control them all just fine, I can use the RGB header to treat these as RGB fans or usb to get the full ARGB function. It has magnets so I was able to easily attach it inside my case out of the way, very happy that they had this product as an option.

Almost had this product in my pc for a month now and it works so well with Signal RGB it's amazing how good it is as I though you could only have ARGB fans if u had a header on the motherboard but with this it makes it so you don't which is such a relief

Works a charm but price needs be lowered

O preço é salgado. O produto é bem competente naquilo a que se propõe. O app da Coolermaster é simples e fácil de configurar. Existe a opção de fazer o gerenciamento dos dispositivos ARGB conectados no dispositivo através do app da placa mãe do PC ou de outros desenvolvedores. O controlador também conta com uma conexão RGB 12v.

Hello solution extrêmement complète qui me satisfait n'ayant que la possibilité de brancher du RGB de base sur ma carte mére strix z390, en gros avec ça tous est possible configuration led par led, création de chaine, preset multiple déjà présent de base (via le soft coolermaster) si branché en usb, pilotage du rgb et argb simultanément enfin bref j’adhère. je vais essayer d'expliquer simplement les branchements possible :) ARGB (sorti vers périphérique) : il y'a 4 port argb (5v 3pin) sur la tranche droite (à brancher sur des périphériques argb) ils sont pilotable indépendamment des autres pour les effets de lumière, ensuite pour ajouter + de périphérique (au de-là de 4) il suffit de connecter des splitter argb (3pin) par contre les effets lumineux seront les mêmes pour chaque périphériques branché sur un splitter. RGB (soti vers périphérique) : Sur la tranche gauche il y'a un port "rgb" (4pin 12v) pilotable indépendamment aussi (splitter 4pin possible aussi pour ajouter + d'un périphérique RGB). Entré argb/rgb via carte mére et USB : Sur la tranche du bas on retrouve un port rgb(4pin) et argb(3pin) qui sont a brancher (ou non) sur votre carte mère pour piloter l'ensemble du contrôleur via le logiciel argb/rgb de la carte mère. Le port usb sert à piloter le contrôleur via le logiciel de coolermaster, donc 3 possibilités de pilotage possible (via usb, via rgb, ou via argb). personnellement j'ai préféré utiliser la solution usb via le soft de coolermaster qui est vraiment pas mal pour customiser chaque led en argb de mes périphériques. Ne pas oublier de brancher le port sata (alimentation électrique du contrôleur) Voilà la base du branchement (du moins ce que j'ai compris), je n'ai pas testé les effet lumineux en branchant une sonde de temp sur le coté gauche et je n'ai aucune idée de l'utilité des ports "reset....". Je recommande, pas cher et universelle (enfin je trouve)

I bought this like a year and a half ago for a SFF build and never ended up using it but thought it might come in handy some day so I kept it. I rebuilt my system into a larger case using the same Gigabyte B660I mini-ITX board, which only has one ARGB port, and I quickly realized that if I wanted multiple ARGB channels I was either going to have to go with something expensive and proprietary like Corsair, or try this hub. It works great! This device has three functions: it can work independently without a connection to the computer using built-in presets, it can act has an ARGB hub for one channel, or you can connect it via internal or external USB and use it as a smart controller with four separate ARGB channels (five including RGB out), leaving your board's ARGB port free to use for something else! I did USB and I'm using it for four groups of fans. You can see in my photo and video that there are ten case fans in four groups (one is behind the CPU cooler); these are each daisy-chained and connected to a separate port on the controller while the case's built-in lightstrip is connected to the motherboard's ARGB port. I'm using SignalRGB, which immediately recognized and controller and works perfectly, allowing me to "paint" the fan groups the colors I want while leaving the light strip on my chosen effect. This controller has one major limitation and that is that each channel can only control up to 48 LEDs, which is more than enough for fans but for longer strips like the the one built into my case (77!) it won't be sufficient, which is why I left that connected directly to the board. I do wish the industry would come up with a way to make ARGB cables connect more securely, but that aside this controller is a fantastic way to add ARGB flexibility to an existing system.

The packaging was not at all good. The box was damaged which can be seen clearly in the images. Although the product is absolutely fine and working great. I would suggest the

Cooler Master Driver RGB A-RGB LED Controller è un dispositivo che ha davvero portato la mia esperienza di illuminazione del PC a un nuovo livello. La versatilità e la facilità d'uso di questo controller sono davvero impressionanti. Innanzitutto, devo sottolineare la compatibilità con una vasta gamma di prodotti RGB e A-RGB Cooler Master, il che significa che è possibile personalizzare completamente l'illuminazione del proprio sistema per adattarlo al proprio stile. Il setup è stato semplice grazie alle istruzioni chiare e alla connettività intuitiva. La possibilità di regolare i colori, gli effetti e la luminosità attraverso l'apposito software è un grande vantaggio. È davvero divertente sperimentare con le diverse opzioni e trovare la combinazione perfetta che si adatta al proprio gusto. La reattività del controller è notevole, e la sincronizzazione con altri componenti RGB del mio sistema è impeccabile. Un altro aspetto positivo è la costruzione solida e affidabile del controller. Si avverte una sensazione di qualità nei materiali utilizzati, e la robustezza complessiva suggerisce una lunga durata nel tempo. Tuttavia, sarebbe opportuno migliorare la documentazione fornita con il controller, in modo da rendere ancora più accessibile l'installazione e la configurazione per chi è meno esperto. In conclusione, Cooler Master Driver RGB A-RGB LED Controller è una scelta eccellente per chiunque desideri elevare l'aspetto del proprio PC con una illuminazione personalizzata. Con un'ampia compatibilità, un software user-friendly e una costruzione robusta, si tratta di un investimento che vale sicuramente la pena per gli appassionati di illuminazione RGB. Il lato software invece è penoso, cooler master deve assolutamente migliorare la compatibilità dei propri software perchè io (non sò per quale motivo) ogni volta che apro il programma si freeza in continuazione rendendo difficoltosa anche una minima modifica al sistema LED.
