Fan dilemma

[drizzt90]

Soooo.. I know that I can save money going to other fans or whatever and that cable management is going to be a PITA, That’s fine but I think I’m going to go with 9 [Corsair QL120’s]). It’s cheaper to buy them in the 3 pack than individually. They come with the Lighting Node CORE. 

 
My dilemma: the Lighting Node CORE only controls RGB. What to do about fan speed control? Do I get a  splitter 4pin pwm thing like [this](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08338CTLN/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_JK47BZ3JN7QFEMXS6PGX) to connect all the fans to 1 or 2 fan headers on the motherboard or like 2 [Commander Pros] to do the RGB and fan controller and toss/sell the Lighting Node CORES?

Without it being in the fan header the fans are only gonna go one speed right? Even if the temps fluctuate it will still be the one speed? Speed control will be with the bios/mobo utility if no commander pro? With commander pro is it controlled in icue? Thanks all for your input.

you only want to plug 3 or 4 fans into a single header, otherwise they will pull to much current through a single header. Instead you want a splitter that will plug into the MB header for control and PSU for power

 

This would be a low end example of one: https://www.amazon.com/Fancasee-Splitter-Internal-Motherboard-Extension/dp/B089KDCMDN/ref=pd_di_sccai_2/142-8310350-3436751?pd_rd_w=VIb2t&pf_rd_p=c9443270-b914-4430-a90b-72e3e7e784e0&pf_rd_r=SANSD3ZPQMFB3BBPB46X&pd_rd_r=241ea592-3199-458c-8a54-1d0850fab57c&pd_rd_wg=3xnly&pd_rd_i=B089KDCMDN&psc=1
