NZXT H700i

[Filipe Raquel]

I am planning on making a new build in the NZXT H700i but I am trying to make sense of all the connections inside the case to make everything work and it's getting a little confusing. 

 

So I wanted to have the H700i, a Kraken X62 with NZXT AER RGB 140mm fans connected to it as well as the back of the case. Now I understand the smart device supports either the included LED strips or the RGB fans but not both at the same time. I found a tweet from NZXT saying that this was possible using their hue+ controller. 

So now I'll need to add that controller in the case and connect it up. But now I need 4 internal USB connectors to make this all work. 

One for the front IO on the case, one for the smart hub, one for the kraken and now one for the controller. 

So I'd need to go and buy the NZXT USB Hub to connect everything up. 

Is there something that I am overlooking and is there a simpler way to connect all of this together and have it be controllable through the CAM software? 

 

I should also add that I will be using an i7 8700k on an Asus Maximus X Hero/Code (still undecided on that one) and an Asus GTX 1080 ti strix. The motherboard and graphics card lighting should be controlled via the Asus Aura software. 

I just want the case LEDs and RGB fans to be controlled together. 

If anyone is able to help it'd be greatly appreciated

I dont think so. Sounds like you have everything sorted.
