Arctic ARGB and RGB fans

Anyone with experience of Arctic's fans? I have a Liquid Freezer II 360mm (ARGB) and six Arctic P12 RGB fans and an Arctic RGB controller.

If I connect the RGB fans to the RGB controller and cooler fans to an ARGB head on the motherboard any idea if I can control them with Arctic's software or will I need an ARGB controller too?

The cooler has 3 Arctic ARGB fans and I have 6 other Arctic RGB fans. I also have an Arctic RGB controller with 4 ports that can take up to 5 fans (5x0.2A) on each port. Just trying to work out how best to get it all working together. I'm not fussed about the ARGB fabs working with any fancier patterns as long as they are just controlled to match the RGB ones.

I think I may have to try that thanks. Arctic's software only seems to work with the RGB hub. It's painful when even a single manufacturers stuff can't work together.

I've been playing around with my fans. Seems I actually have 6 ARGB and 3 RGB fans. Schoolboy error buying the RGB ones! Tried a combination of Gigabyte and Arctic software which sort of works. I'm going to try some of the third party ones and see what result I get.

This mess of RGB is very underreported, anyone that gets it working has my respect, frustrating as hell to play around with :mad:
