    Best RGB fans, but horrible instructions

    Best RGB fans, but horrible instructions
    I'm using these AER RGB 2 Fans for my Kraken Elite 240 AIO and as regular case air flow fans all connected to NZXT's RGB and Fan Controller. These fans have a nice RGB aesthetics I'm looking for. But I think NZXT can definitely simplify the fan linking wiring a lot better like some other competitors are recently doing.My biggest complaint is NZXT instructions for linking these fans to their RGB and Fan Controller is not quite clear! And no one on youtube clearly shows how to install these fans either. So I made a guide for those who want to link all of their AER RGB 2 fans to NZXT's RGB and Fan Controller.
    Thank you for your feedback

    Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2021
    Fans where super nice and feel and look super high quality they provided a lot of ventilation and look super good for being on my first build, they are a little pricey, and setting them up within the nzxt h510 elite case it was just confusing being a first build figuring out how I would daisy chain them but after a few puzzled stares it becomes pretty self explanatory, highly recommend them. One last thing is that if you instal in this case and at least the asus rog b550 mother board you will need to plug in your 8 pin cpu cable first because the fan is a little too thick and you won’t be able to fit it in later on

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent upgrade from the standard NZXT case fans
    Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2021
    First of all, if you have an NZXT N7 motherboard you DO NOT need the RGB & fan controller! You simply plug the end of the wire that would go into the RGB & fan controller into the NZXT RGB controller ports located directly above the RAM slots on the motherboard. (See picture)

    The fan itself is great, basically the same as the default case fan that came with my H510, but with the added RGB aesthetic. It is very quiet which is important to me because I can’t stand feeling like my rig is going to take off next to me.

    Overall, highly recommend these fans as a replacement for the H510 case!
