## Overview

The Cooler Master ARGB Hub is a versatile LED controller that supports both 4-Pin RGB and 3-Pin ARGB connections, compatible with major motherboard brands. It offers multiple customizable lighting modes, real-time thermal detection via color-coded LEDs, and a compact magnetic design for easy installation. Perfect for professionals seeking advanced, flexible RGB control without proprietary lock-in, it supports up to four ARGB channels and can operate independently or via USB for smart control.

## Description

The Cooler Master ARGB LED Controller is a compact Addressable RGB LED controller hub (ARGB) which allows easy customization of ARGB devices without the need of either an ARGB compatible motherboards or software. With multiple lighting modes, users have access to full customization of PC LED illumination effects. On a more pragmatic level, the thermal detection function can easily monitor the system temperature via its colour lighting effect setup.

Review: Fantastic! - I bought this like a year and a half ago for a SFF build and never ended up using it but thought it might come in handy some day so I kept it. I rebuilt my system into a larger case using the same Gigabyte B660I mini-ITX board, which only has one ARGB port, and I quickly realized that if I wanted multiple ARGB channels I was either going to have to go with something expensive and proprietary like Corsair, or try this hub. It works great! This device has three functions: it can work independently without a connection to the computer using built-in presets, it can act has an ARGB hub for one channel, or you can connect it via internal or external USB and use it as a smart controller with four separate ARGB channels (five including RGB out), leaving your board's ARGB port free to use for something else! I did USB and I'm using it for four groups of fans. You can see in my photo and video that there are ten case fans in four groups (one is behind the CPU cooler); these are each daisy-chained and connected to a separate port on the controller while the case's built-in lightstrip is connected to the motherboard's ARGB port. I'm using SignalRGB, which immediately recognized and controller and works perfectly, allowing me to "paint" the fan groups the colors I want while leaving the light strip on my chosen effect. This controller has one major limitation and that is that each channel can only control up to 48 LEDs, which is more than enough for fans but for longer strips like the the one built into my case (77!) it won't be sufficient, which is why I left that connected directly to the board. I do wish the industry would come up with a way to make ARGB cables connect more securely, but that aside this controller is a fantastic way to add ARGB flexibility to an existing system.
Review: Instructions on how to get this product working with OpenRGB - It works well, but documentation on how to get it working really is unclear, and the official software really is buggy. So I'm sharing my steps I got through troubleshooting here to get it working with OpenRGB: 1. Download CoolerMaster "Master Plus" software and install it (don't run it yet) 2. Plug in the RGB controller to USB 3. On first open, run Master Plus as administrator 4. At this point a firmware update should be displayed as available for the RGB controller. Follow the instructions on screen to install it. For me the software claimed that updating the firmware failed, but it did in fact succeed 5. The controller should now work 100% with OpenRGB. Prior to this firmware update when I tried to use it with OpenRGB, it seemed incompatible and really broken, with it only illuminating at most half of my LED strips. After the firmware update, it worked fully Cheers guys, and merry christmas

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works fine
*by M***K on May 18, 2022*

I bought two of these to control the lighting in my PC, and they work just fine. Not great, not bad, but fine. Be aware that these work only as a simple splitter if you use the passthrough from a motherboard ARGB header. All of the devices will be sent the same signal. If you want to control your devices independently you must use USB and either Cooler Master's software or something like OpenRGB.
