Using Cooler Master ARGB Controller or Cooler Master ARGB A1 Gen2 Controller for other branded fans

[Aravind Raja]

I have a DEEPCOOL GAMMAXX L360 ARGB AIO which came with 3X CF120 fans(The ones without holo ring) and planning to get 3 more CF120 Plus fans(The ones with holo ring) will the lights in the pump and all these fans be controlled using Cooler Master MasterPlus Software if I purchase and use the Cooler Master ARGB Controller or Cooler Master ARGB Controller A1?

 

1. Found that the old Cooler Master ARGB Controller allows other branded AIO and fans to control lighting but no idea about individual LED and brightness.

2. Found the new Cooler Master ARGB Controller A1 allows control of individual devices even if they are daisy chained(https://landing.coolermaster.com/pages/addressable-gen-2-rgb-led-controller/) but not sure if it will work with other brands

Will the old Cooler Master ARGB Controller will support brightness control and Individual LED control for other branded fans?

 

Will the new Cooler Master ARGB Controller A1 will support other brand fans(like the old one) and let us control everything(Individual LED control, brightness control and recognize multiple fans connected to a single port using a hub/splitter cable)
