What brand RGB fans etc is the cheapest? I really like the corsair LL120RGB fans and led strip but it will be around $200 just in RGB fans and parts!

 

They all connect to the corsair Commander Pro if i put a corsair fan on my CPU heatsink will the corsair software control it's speed based on the cpu temps?

I have not looked at fans yet. But the Asus Aura controller is 79 USD. And comes with some RGB strips as well..

cheapest is definitely not Corsair. Cooler Master or even Deepcool I believe?

Cooler Master's is probably the cheapest, but I don't think they look too good. Phanteks offers their RGB Halos, which are frames that you mount to a fan. They're $10 USD for a 120mm size on their site an compatible with gigabyte, asus, and msi. The 140mm size is $10.40 USD on amazon.

You can get cheap or no name brand RGB LED fans, however depending on the quality the performance of the fan itself may also be less. There are ones that can also hook up to your motherboard for sync capability for either addressable or analog type RGB lights. 

 

Here's some examples, there are lots out there:
