Fan question/recommendations

[Ronnmann]

Heyyo, 

 

im in a bit of a pickle here and i don't quite know the ARGB setup, so i need a plan of attack here.  

Now i have a Lian Li Lanncool 216 RGB with it's Fan Hub on the back. One of my 3 Top fans broke so now i have a reason to upgrade all 3 of those (Non RGB) to ARGB ones. (120mm) 

Right now i control all of my little RGB (Front Case fans and GPU) with the Gigabyte Mainboard software from its ARGB Header. 

Now my question is. 

Can i just use the integrated hub with it's Rgb control through the Mainboard to control the three new ARGB Fans (When i plug them into my Hub, or should i just buy a ARGB Hub? 

That's the controller i have:

You should be able to control them with your board after downloading Gigabyte Fusion. If not then look at this link.

That appears to have the capability to do what you want, assuming its correctly advertised as an ARGB hub, so 3-pin 5v. 

 

Based on the below from the manual, yeah that'll do exactly what you need. Powered and passthrough ARGB to the motherboard for software control.

He does not have Unifans, as far as i'm aware.

2 option, cheapest good RGB fans,

 

or just buy with whatever other RGB fans you may have in case if any so they look uniform,

 

a similar fan for the front case might be tricky to find, therefore the best case fan for the job is none other than ARCTIC fan: (in a 3 pack)

 

Case Fan: ARCTIC P12 PST A-RGB 0dB 48.8 CFM 120 mm Fans 3-Pack  (€38.95 @ Amazon Deutschland)

 

Cheap and quiet.

 

Or, I actually found something similar to the front fans,

 

 

this build uses these:

Case Fan: Cooler Master MasterFan MF Halo 47.2 CFM 120 mm Fans 3-Pack  (€47.76 @ Amazon Deutschland)

I do have 3 Be quiet pure wings 2 120mm right now. ^^ (one of them broke as i said)

But i want some more rgb because my pc is almost only black with those ^^"

 

I will replace all three on top with ARGB ones because of that. 

 

Is it worth it to buy the more expensive ones like from Lian Li or should i just stick with good looking Cooler master/any RGB Fans ?

I just found the DeepCool CF 120 Plus 3in1 for 38€. Price is very good i guess, but i have never bought a DeepCool Product by now. Are they good?

Sure, they'll be fine for general case fans. I have a number of DC coolers, all great. Contraband now in my country

Roof fans can hurt temps if the pc is air-cooled. If its for an aio, arctic p12 argb:s are way better.
