Corsair Commander PRO PWM FAN & RGB LED Controller
Give Me Blue LEDs & Low Fan RPM, I Command You!

You can spend a lot of money on fans and everything RGB these days, but one thing that is often frustrating is the fact that each component is regulated by a different piece of hard and software. Say no more, as Corsair just launched its new Commander PRO controller, a digital fan and RGB lighting controller that centralizes your needs and requirements as it allows you to configure it connected kit through the Corsair LINK software suite. As you guys know, Corsair's Link system is a suite of hardware and software that can be utilized to manage Corsair products. These products include your Corsair liquid coolers and your Corsair power supply, but with the Commander Pro Corsair offers the ability to digitally control your fans and RGB LED strips tied to one unit. basically it is  a central hub for your Corsair Link-compatible devices and then a fan controller. The new commander PRO can feed 6x PWM fan control and offers 2-channel individually addressable RGB lighting control, and even functions as USB internal header Hub as well as host port for four thermal sensors.

With the later iteration, Commander PRO you get a centralized software programmable HUB to configure and fine-tune your RGB fans, lighting strips, Coolers and PSUs. Next to that, you can now monitor temperatures as well, place some sensors conveniently in some spots in the PC, and that is registered as well. For today's review we'll obviously take the new PRO for a test spin, but we'll so so with a nice component selection in the form of the Corsairs HD 140 (RGB Fans) and Lighting Node Pro (LED strip  kit), and we'll plant all that kitty into the brilliant Corsair Crystal Series 570X (review here) PC chassis, which has thee SP120 RGB fans..
