Fantastic option for those who don't want to work extra shifts to afford corsair fans
Thank you so much 5 months later the idea of connecting it to cpu header or change it through the bios for pwm was really helpful thank you for the clear explanation keep em going
Glad it helped
Appreciate this video, I thought I installed it wrong but just had to change the bios setting from Auto Detect to PWM for Armoury Crate to control the case fans. Thank You!
Glad it helped
Just ordered two of these. One for intake and one for exhaust. Along with a Thermalright AIO and 8 fans.
Gotta keep the thermals under control in a wooden case.
hope it all goes well
The unit itself is a handsome looking bit of kit and judging by your review it does what it says on the tin......thanks for sharing Mike and Kath 🙂
it will be a top seller i think
Bought an Arctic hub you reviewed purely bcus mb only had one system header, worked a treat. Thermalright make some great value products and this is no exception, great idea combining pwm & argb! Thanks for reviewing Mike and Kath 🐈👍 Wait did u say April🤔 have you been hiding stock lol🤣
i should have bought a few of these, they seem to have gone up in price a little :-)
I just bought Noctua NA-FH1 yesterday for my CORSAIR AF140 LED, my reason is to have clean wiring.
Good review Mike.Nice and neat looking hub.Price is good too;l would have guessed it to be more like £25-30.Thank you for sharing the video Mike and Kath 👏👏⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
yes it is a great accessory and for less than a tenner you can't go to far wrong. this is the price of a couple of coffees
@@mikesunboxing l don’t need one;but at that price l might buy one for standby 🙂
I bought one of those a couple of weeks ago! Works great.
yeah i might buy a couple more for stock, very handy to have around
Nice video Mike. I’m currently using an Arctic 10 port USB fan hub. This Thermalright one looks great for the price and I would certainly consider it in the future if I ever add more argb devices.
Woah I found that Fan Hub when buying some 140mm ARGB fans and bought it in a heartbeat! Thank you so much for the detailed review of how it works and how to use it! :D This is the first ARGB & PWM Fan Hub I buy.
I'll be using the 8 ports for the ARGB controls, but only 6 for the PWM stuff... I'll be using 4x 120mm 1550rpm Thermalright for both ARGB and PWM and 2x 140mm 1500rpm Thermalright for both ARGB and PWM with this hub...
I'll leave 2 PWM slots free since the 2 120mm fans for the CPU cooler will be connected to the CPU_FAN and CPU_OPT headers directly on the motherboard, but the ARGB headers will go into the hub.
So the question I now have is:
1.- Which fan should I use as the "Sent Pin"? One of the 120mm or one of the 140mm? They only have 50 RPM difference... and I know PWM uses "%" Percentage based controls... so either should be fine, right? :S
either of them should be okay as the PWM range is so similar. maybe when you start cable management that might dictate which wire you use
@@mikesunboxing thank you for your help! I'm waiting for the 140mm fans to arrive tomorrow and as you mentioned; I'll let cable management decide which one will be the one connected to Sent Pin. Great video!
did you use a daisy chain to connect to it? does it appear in your rgb software?
what softwar is it
@@CalebPettit-t8x I didn't daisy chain anything. I used all the ports on the hub aside from 2 PWM ones which are for the CPU cooler (Thermalright Peerless Assassin RGB). The hub will connect to 1 ARGB and PWM header on the motherboard and that will replicate the info to the fans... I guess you can see it as a form of "organized daisy chaining" in some sense.
I used to daisy chain all of them before and it did work without a hitch, but I didn't like all the cables dangling everywhere, so this hub was the perfect solution for me.
I also use OpenRGB to control the RGB stuff.
Hey if you have 10 fans can you daisy chain some of them in to the. Hub
That price is so cheap, shame I don't need one..
Got a rog free one with my motherboard.. If I hadn't it would be in my PC..
Thermaltake really do some nice stuff for excellent prices..
Another fab video.. Thanks..
thanks Vialli
Thanks for the review. I'm thinking of buying magnetic tape with an adhesive layer
Glad it was helpful!
I don't understand why, my 6 Corsair RS120 fans are connected to the Hub, ARGB and PWM. The latter is connected to my asus b550 motherboard on an ADD-GEN2 port, but only the green LED lights up, so I can't do anything. Do you have a solution?
sounds like a wiring issue or the header is set to green in the motherboard software
Are you able to control all the fans from some sort of app if using this hub? Or is Bios the only option for control?
the hub is a splitter so it will only be seen to the system as one fan, you can control the PWM header it is connected to in the bios or with motherboard software
Basically a CoolMoon in a new tux.
If my motherboard does not have an aRgb connector, and I bought case coolers with aRgb, can I connect all this through this hub, in CHA_Fan and how will it work? Will it work?
get the gamemax v4 argb hub we reviewed a while back that will be a good argb controller
Only 1 of 6 fans has lit up i have thermal right fans all the same model i dont have an argb port in my motherboard dont really onow what to do
You need a controller like the gamemax v4 that we reviewed
Mikes Hubbubing around!
My motherboars does not have an arbg port so I would have to get an external controller?
yes that is right, something like the gamemax one we reviewed recently would be ideal
@@mikesunboxing so i would have to get this box and an external controller im installing a aio the thermalright frozen nottee 240 version
i just wish the Z series mobo manufacturers either provided more fan headers or gave such a fan port included with them , cant expect it from the b series mobo but i have noticed only the high range Z series have more fan headsers , rest all have less
You've obviously "bumped" the algorithm on Amazon UK, Mike... the price has shot up to £19.56 now from your affiliate link! 😥
damn sorry about that
@@mikesunboxing No worries not your fault Mike, just Amazon being the greedy buggers that they are!
so if i don't have a button to control the rgb from the case, i would not be able to control them via any software?
yes the motherboard software will do it as long as you have ARGB header/s on the motherboard
@@mikesunboxing is their. Sys_fan1 could I connect a PWM Hub connecter to it ??
@@emmanuelthetryhard984 there is 2 cables at the end of thermaltake, 1 for argb and one for power, plug argb from thermaltake to motherboard argb , and the other one is power , which connect to sys_fan/cpu_fan on your motherboard
Mike, do you recommend the Thermalright X8 or the Artic PWN Fan controller? or something else?
It seems like the Thermalright X8 has some protection in it with a fuse
Both are good choices to be honest
so if I wanted lets say 4 or 5 fans to behave sympathetically with my cpu cooler, I would need to plug it into the cpu fan header?
yes that is right
What if the motherboard has no rgb headers at all? I would like to add some nice fans to my son's case but he doesnt have any rgb headers
you need something like the gamemax v4 argb fan hub we reviewed
@@mikesunboxing Thanks!
@mikesunboxing His motherboard really is dreadful so I think I'll do the RGB when it's upgrade time haha
Would this be able to handle 13 fans I have 4 sets of 3 daisy chained fans and 1 exhaust.
yes i think so, i have had 12 on them before
hey mike i was wondering what software supports this hub because rgb fusion doesnt and i need to know what software you use with this hub
it works with any 5v 3 pin argb header, and does work with any motherboard software, including the gigabyte and msi etc
Hi Mike. Would this hub support fans with proprietary fan connectors like nzxt?
no it only works with the standard 4 pin pwm and 3 pin 5v argb
I know I asked something like this a couple weeks ago but will it work with asus aura sync?
yes it will
@@mikesunboxing ok thanks 👍
Does it work on older MB's ??? like on a Win XP retro pc 😲
yes sir it will
hi sir do this hun can run 12v 4pin fans ?
yes 12v pwm and 5v argb
Question how to deliberately pwn on Asrock B550m Phantom Gaming 4 BIOS?
go into the pc health settings in the bios and choose PWM rather than DC or AUTO
i'm using thermalright tl-m12 fans can this run them ?
yes it can
What happens if I only plug in the argb cable
You can use it just for argb if you like
I have a question i'm hoping someone could help me answer. I'm upgrading my fans to uni-fans, 9 of them to be exact. My motherboard is a z790 that has enough 4pin fan headers, but I only have 1 5v argb header. Would I need a fan hub like this, or do I have enough on my motherboard as is ?
depends which unifans you are getting, there are many models, but most come with their own controller so it will only need 1 pwm header and one argb header if you want to hand control over to the motherboard rather than the lianli software
@@mikesunboxing Thanks for anwersering. I think i'll just play it safe and grab one of these hubs
Does this hub have rgb fusion from gigabyte?
yes it will work with that
@@mikesunboxing ok thank you 👍👍
Interview number 9 tomorrow’
Good luck with it
Not too bad mike
thanks mate
I think I got my little arctic hub for around 5 quid on Amazon Shure it's got ten slots
it has but zero argb ports sadly
@@mikesunboxing ah true I'm a Zero argb man myself, but will keep this one in mind for the partners build as she's more into argb on every corner on every component lol
