Fan controller question

Posted by 1Inquiring_Mind@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 1 comments

So I bought new fans for in my pc since the old ones weren’t the best. But the new ones are the Lian Li Uni SL-INF 120. These come with a controller which I already knew. But while I was installing them I realised you probably can’t control them separately if they’re in the same controller.

Now I have 2 3-packs (one for the front and one for the AIO) so I have technically 2 controllers. Is it a smart idea to use both? Or would one controller be just fine.

My thought process one using two was because one 3-pack is for the AIO so that may need a separate speed than the front ones but on the other hand, I’m new to pc building so maybe it’s not even a problem at all.

Nevertheless, I have one cable with 4 SATA and one cable with 3 SATA. One controller needs 2 SATA so I’d have to add the other cable into the PSU for both controllers (because 2x SATA needed = 4 SATA for both controllers) Because the other cable with 3 SATA already have 2 plugged in for the AIO itself (not the fans) and for the RGB thingy in the case.

And I’m a little scared it’s going to be too much for the motherboard since it may not have been the best decision but that’s alright I hope.

So what would be your advice on what to do??
