connected in series will break communication and the RGB LED lighting function will
not work.
∙
Quantity of RGB LED Fans or RGB LED Lighting PRO strips supported may differ
between models. Please refer to the motherboard specification.
∙
CORSAIR RGB LED Fan and CORSAIR Lighting Node PRO can’t be used at the same
