Hi all.
I recently bought a corsair icue link rx120 fan from ocuk
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/cors...0mm-pwm-fans-expansion-fan-coo-crs-01752.html
Mainly because of how it looking, but I was foolish as I didn't look into them and didnt realise you needed more equipment to get them to work.
The case will only have 1 of these fans, as its an older case with window and the front fans are behind a grill / cover so wont be visible.
After a bit of searching, ive found all sorts of information on different controllers, but I'm unsure what exactly I need.
Would I need just the corsair icue link system hub or do I need a hub as well? or any other controllers?

Thanks in advanced.
 
I've only used older Corsair RGB stuff (which gets pretty wild with the variety of hubs and controllers) but I'm pretty sure you just need the icue link system hub for the newer RX fans. The hub will need power from your PSU and you'll need a spare USB header on your motherboard to plug it into

Unfortunately they've priced the icue link stuff to only make financial sense if you're buying multiples - so the 3 pack of the rx120 fans come with the hub, whereas a single fan is marketed as an expansion to the the pack. A standalone hub is about £50 so it doesn't really make sense for a single fan.
 
Unfortunately this is correct, all icue link products are run off a single hub that is powered by a six pin pcie cable. The hub as far as I know is only available with aio’s or the 3fan starter kits. Single fans are add-in fans only. Sorry mate.
