LIAN LI Uni fan SL Infinity 120! Unboxing / Tutorial / Install / L-Connect 3 Software / Review!

[@Asian_Import]

Hey Dan (and others having the settings issue), for your L-Connect settings to save you have to go into your BIOS and make sure constant USB power is on. The controller needs constant power even in sleep/shutdown. If it still doesn't work after that, try a different USB header for the controller. Some motherboards only hold power on certain headers so check your manual! Hope this helps :)

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Thank you for the comment! I did read that there should be a settings adjustment in the BIOS that I can adjust but I find it a tad annoying that I we have to do this to retain settings. I will try the other USB header on my board first and see if it works. Going to pin your comment so other people see it. Thanks for the information!

[@oldstuffcalban]

@@DanKamYouKnow Did it work?

[@EG-O]

interesting, i never had this problem, and i just built my computer.

[@customcarsfordba2481]

Don`t want to change a couple of settings in your bios (that would be set and forget), but you will adjust your fan speed and rgb lighting every time you boot up. Does not compute (pun intended) to me. ?

[@Jake-kw4ql]

Damn. I just bought a bunch of these fans to tidy up my build... when i shut down my system, i like to also kill the power switch on my psu (I'm paranoid about power surges frying my system) So, basically I'm going to have to leave my psu active at all times if i want my fan settings to save.... welp, looks like I'll be plugging directly into my mobo and not the l connect hub

[@TheDishDoc]

Another great review Dan, thanks for spending the time going thru the lighting presets and software controls rather than wasting it recording you physically taking the stuff out of the box. Concise, yet In-Depth. The tip about the controller losing its settings after re-boot is good to know. I will take that into account when choosing my future purchase.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Thanks for the comment, that’s really nice of you to say and I appreciate it. So it appears the controller thing might have been resolved with a software update. Mine is loading up every time now and I didn’t change anything. Not sure what happened but glad it’s working now. Worst case scenario is you have to open and minimize the app on boot each time, which wasn’t that bad.

[@DATWagonator]

the 1-4 selection on each color scheme is for fans 1 through 4 of each daisy chain not each section of fans. so if you select only 2 of those for a 3 fan chain that is why one is dark. The chain for the radiator was fine since it was only 2 fans.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Appreciate the info 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@MiKeYROG]

Thank you for this excellent review. I'm gonna get two of the 3 pack for my 7000D case. These look so damn good and after this review it's difficult to choose any other fan over these 😂

Thanks!!! Appreciate those kind words. I am still using these fans and they’re still great, no issues at all

[@jimjames6287]

STOP!!! INCORRECT INFO!!! In general, this video was fantastic. It was well edited, very informative, and extremely helpful in my new build with these Uni Fan SL-Infinity 120 fans. HOWEVER... There's one fatal flaw here that I haven't seen addressed in the comments or spoken about in later videos and that's your incorrect info @1:57 on the airflow of the fans. The side with the brackets is NOT the intake. It's the exhaust. The other side, sans brackets, is the intake. This is demonstrated in JayzTwoCents' own video of the fans @16:10, when he shows a piece of paper being blown across the workbench by the BRACKET SIDE of the fans. If you addressed this mistake in a later video and I missed it, my apologies. But, like I said, I looked at your video on the reverse blade version of these fans, plus went through all of the comments in this video, and didn't see anything to correct it, so I wanted to bring it up here. Still a good video, but that piece of misinformation really needs to be corrected. Thanks.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

I see what you mean but the fact is, if you see the spokes side of the fan in your case, they will be intake. In the case of my Y60, my side fans are intake and the top fans (showing the mirror), are exhaust.

[@Brosephh]

The timing on discovering your video review was helpful. I was looking into Lian Li fans to replace my Corsair fans because the white LED color has worn itself down to a yellowish opaque color for keeping it for 2 years. Knowing that the Lian Li doesn't save the color settings from their software tool and resets to default every time it boots up is a deal breaker. I hope there is a software fix to it, and would consider to buy it.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

I am hoping they fix it too because the program auto boots, minimized to the task tray. It will only load my previous settings when I physically open the program up, but not when it auto boots to task tray. Seems like a software glitch and should be sorted out. When it is, these fans will be unmatched, except in the longevity department, that we shall see.

[@alexibrahim4076]

@@DanKamYouKnow that's interesting that it's not saved. My Lian li AL fans always boot in the profile and RGB settings.

The funny thing is that it technically is saved, but the settings aren’t being applied, until the program is physically open. Should of chosen my words more carefully

@@DanKamYouKnow I'm building in the Lian-Li 011 XL. It's going to be a full custom loop with three 360mm rads, custom front distro plate. I've been very anxious to start building but had to wait for some parts to become available. The Asus Crosshair Extreme motherboard took a little bit to get and 4090 arrives tomorrow. Only thing that's left now is the GPU waterblock. I want the wiring not to be a huge mess so the SL Infinity fans are really gonna help. Have you tried controlling them via controller and motherboard? The Asus Crosshair Extreme comes with its own ARGB/Fan controller that also uses a USB header so I'm thinking it would be best to stick to motherboard control.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Very nice, would love to see it once it’s done. I have personally only used the Lian Li software but I know a lot of people do not like the software and use their motherboard for fan speeds / RGB, and they have had no issues doing so. Would be much easier to only use your motherboard controller for sure

A great and informative video, Dan. Do you think these fans are higher quality than Noctua’s premium fans? Which is lower decibels at any given RPM?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Thanks Kanive! So far, these fans have been great. High RPM / low noise / good static pressure / incredible lighting. Wish I had the equipment to compare the 2 but couldn’t go wrong either way. They are on the completely opposite side of the spectrum as far as fan choice goes. Black and/or brown vs the most intense RGB lighting 🤣

[@mehmetihsanboz3592]

I don’t even know how many times I watched this video because every time I learn something new, I will do exactly like you did Dan but if I may ask, do you think its the best to have radiator 360mm on top with exhaust fans ?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

For this case, you can go either way. From multiple testing, it seems like a 280mm radiator on the side, with the fans set to intake, is the best for temps. BUT, a 360mm on top will work just fine. 👍🏻

Or does every fan connected to the L connect fan hub have to have the same custom curve? Thanks.

[@bemindful924]

Awesome review! Its what I was looking for since Im building in the exact same case. My question is if you had a chance to build with the SL120 V2 fans. It's either the V2's or these INF fans on a 280mm radiator on the side as intake. You mentioned the noise was fine @1600, but have been hearing different views on the sound, some saying it gets loud. So was wondering if you could do a push-pull with the Lian Li's at a low RPM on the inside and outer fans (Be quiet Silent Wings 4?) doing the heavy lifting.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

The sound really depends on the case and that persons threshold for noise. Some people will say fans are loud if they’re audible at all, but I’m more acceptable and have a higher threshold for noise because I know PC’s aren’t quiet. Your push pull idea might work but I don’t like the push and pull fans to have too much of a varying fan speed

[@Alistairtxj]

Hi there, amazing video man. I have an enquiry tho, I am currently using the lian li GA (II) trinity. Under fan/pump profile (SL-Inf controller01), the stats seem to reflect that Fan: StdSP is at 0rpm but pump: pwm is working around 2500 rpm. All my fans seem to be spinning tho, so im wondering if the reflected 0rpm for fans is normal? or should i be doing something about it? I really appreciate any help I can get HAHAH.

[@georgedrexel8867]

I know this is an older video but just curious if you had any issues with fans ramping up and down? Did you plug your controller up to SYS_FAN or CPU_FAN? I have my fans on an AIO and my case, but I want to plug my AIO fans on CPU fan and my case fans on sys fan to prevent full case ramp up. Just curious if you had any experience with that.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

So, I still use these fans and controller, but the controller is only plugged into a USB 2.0 header on the motherboard and I have my AIO plugged into the CPU fan header. I control the pump speed thru the BIOS and control the fans with L-Connect 3. The controller is not plugged into any fan header, that may be your issue. I’ve never actually had an issue with fans ramping up and down

Probably won't answer, but with the splitter at 12:40, do it only control the RGB or will the fan speed(s) adjust, too?

Is the splitter capable of that, or do I need to use a second controller? Thanks.

Hi Dan! I have been following your channel for a couples of weeks and your videos have been a great help. I am planning to move my 25l set up to the Hyte Y60 and set up couples of Lian Li RGB fans and the controller. As there isn't any RGB ports on my Omen motherboard, could the controller work without an RGB port? And could the controller work with non-Lian RGB fans? Thank you very much!

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Hey Ben! So, there may be a few issues. The Lian Li controller requires an available USB 2.0 header to be able to “talk” to the motherboard and the Omen does not have any open USB 2.0 headers, so you would need a splitter. Secondly, from what I have seen with other manufacturers, the Omen motherboard may make it so the Lian Li software won’t recognize the controller. I’ve seen people try Corsair controllers with Omens and the software doesn’t recognize it. Honestly, if you’re swapping cases, I’d consider swapping motherboards too. And no, the Lian Li controller only works with Lian Li fans

[@BenZhang-r5r]

@@DanKamYouKnow Thank you very much for your advice! I have found a solution to a similar case which I will link below. This guy plugs a USB 2.0 splitter to the header which was originally powering the small light control module at the bottom of the case.

Case plays a huge factor in acoustics but under about 900RPM, these fans are dead quiet. From 900-1400, you can hear a slight whir and anything over is definitely audible. With a less aggressive fan curve, these fans are barely audible. If you want dead quiet, go Noctua or lower your fan curves.

[@fussnote1758]

@@DanKamYouKnow Hi, thx a lot! 😀 The problem with the SL 120 is, they run min@800 rpm and then they are not without any noise, slightly silent, but audible... I have to look, but your review and this answer gave me a nice advice! 😀

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Glad to hear. Good luck with your search

[@JonesyBones42001]

What screws did you use for your aio because mine arnt long enough I need longer screws but don’t know which to get

[@DanKamYouKnow]

I used the screws that came with my AIO, they’ve worked with multiple fans, including my Lian Li Infinity fans.

[@mikmaks7393]

So when you first turn on the PC, the fans don't run right? You still have to install the L connect software. Will that damage the pc while the fans are not running while you're still installing Windows and then eventually L connect? Since the fans were not spinning yet.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Nope, you should be totally fine. Keep your side panels off if you are worried about it, but even with zero percent fan speed and the PC is not under load, it’ll be fine.

[@mikmaks7393]

@@DanKamYouKnow Appreciate it sir. I was a bit worried about that. Thank you! :)

[@chungin955]

good review on the fans buuuuut you have the air flow description reversed ma dude

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Yeah, someone commented on this recently as well. I said it in a weird way but meant that when the spoke side of the fan is seen in the case, its intake and vice versa for the infinity mirror side. Thanks for not being super rude about it like the last guy! Lol

[@ashleystokes4669]

love your vids bro just got me the same case and fans but im a bit concerned does the case hide the top fans cant really see the infinity from, the side

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Thank you!!! The top fans don’t sit far enough down to really see the sides of them. My desk is kind of taller so I can see them but they are a little hidden unfortunately 😩😑😞

[@mehmetihsanboz3592]

Dan, could you please explain me how you control your fan speed on your aio, I have ryzen 5 7600x cpu and it keeps getting overheating with Lian Li fans.. I dont know which header to plug

[@DanKamYouKnow]

All of my fans are plugged into the Lian Li fan controller but my AIO pump is plugged into my motherboard. So through my BIOS, I set the pump fan curve speed. Or I can use the NZXT CAM software to change the pump speed too

[@pcgaming6906]

The split cable at 11:03, can I connect the PWM to another fan controller to let it control RPM while leaving the RGB unconnected? The controller will still be plugged into my motherboard USB

[@DanKamYouKnow]

I have no idea if that would work tbh.

[@bridgetroll3338]

I want to know more about the screen in the back

[@SingleSpeed427]

Are the AIO fans backwards? It seems like that would be pulling hot air from the radiator into the case, no?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

I actually want them as intake because airflow was crippled when the side and top were exhaust. Temps were much better when I had the radiator fans as intake.

[@SingleSpeed427]

​@@DanKamYouKnow Thanks! I just went and bought 2 3-packs and a single today. 1 more question... when you use the Splitter to connect a 3rd fan with the pair of AIO fans, does that third fan's speed adjust as well, or just RGB control?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

It will control both since they’ll both be plugged into the controller

[@gurpindersinghmuttar]

Sir do windows detect it as a threat while installing, heard it on reddit post

[@techiyuri9356]

Thanks Dan.. bought the same fan. However after installingm fans doesnt spin. But there is rgb.. do I need to install first iconnect software? So the fan can start spinning? Thanks a lot.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Yes! Make sure you install L-Connect 3 and update the firmware for the fans and controller. My fans didn’t spin at first either

[@techiyuri9356]

@@DanKamYouKnow thanks a lot. Thought my fans are faulty.. 🙂

[@AlwaysEast]

​@@DanKamYouKnow I've 3x3. They're not spinning or showing RGB. The micro usb is plugged in but nothing else, so it should be getting powered by the software. The software and firmware have been updated (v1.4), and my MB bios too. In device manager I can see Lian Li Infinity v1.4 and L-Connect 3 shows 4 ports despite only 3 being plugged in. It shows them at zero RPM. I recognise this video is a year old, but nobody is replying on /r/buildapc or /r/lianli, and I'm on the verge of giving up and going back to Noctua.

[@benjaminkovacs4245]

10:34 Hi! I bought such Lian Li fans. I would like to ask if it is normal for the fans to light up but not spin. I have not installed Lian Li or any OS. I was just wondering if they work. I connected it to the USB port of the motherboard.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

When the fans are first installed, they may not spin or the lights might not work. You have to install L-Connect 3 and update the firmware for the fan controller, and they should work properly.

[@MaxonBatonLive]

Hi! Ur water cooling is 240mm? Can i put on it 120mm infinity fans?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Yes, the AIO I am using has a 240mm radiator and can fit two 120mm fans

[@clueless4401]

so I have a nzxt Kranken 360 mm Aio that im gonna be using with these fans and my question is if my cpu temps will be fine until I will be able to get the fans to spin because I'm gonna be using L connect

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Yes, your CPU will be completely fine while you set up and update L-Connect 3

[@SalVo01]

Hey nice Video🙃 ,one question ,wich Fans do you use at the bottom ? Thx

[@DanKamYouKnow]

I used Noctua 140mm fans for the bottom: amzn.to/3FsR941

[@stevenv116]

Will these fans work with the kraken x72 cooler ? The kraken cooler has 3 fan connections would I even connect the one lian li connection to it or just not use it at all and use the lian li controller

[@DanKamYouKnow]

The 3 pin connection from your pump will plug into your CPU_fan header on your motherboard, and you’ll control the pump speed with the BIOS fan curve settings. The Lian Li fans will plug into the controller

[@alexiswiftrock]

I bought two of these as single units. No controller with them and did not buy it separately. I presume I can just connect them to my board and headers without the control and they will get power and RGB I just won't have any controller functionality. Is this correct?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Yes, the single packs come with connections for 4 pin fan and 5V ARGB. So they plug differently into your motherboard, and you’ll utilize the program for your motherboard

[@Roadsurfer2k11]

The fan max is where I'm confused because I have the sl inf 120 fans (infinity) and it says in manual when sync to mb and set 100% bright, it only supports up to 8 infinity fans on the controller. So does that mean I need two controllers for 9 fans (3 sets of 3 fans connected together)? I have these on a rad for new build. Am I going to have cooling issues knowing they won't be running until I have windows installed?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Are you using L Connect 3 to control the fan speeds? Or do you have them plugged into motherboard headers? The controller can support up to 16 fans ( 4 per port and there is 4 ports total ). No, I have had these fans in numerous rads in different configurations and they work really well against rads as static pressure fans.

[@Roadsurfer2k11]

@DanKamYouKnow thanks I got my Q answered in reddit. So apparently when running white led, if more than 8 fans then it reduces brightness to 80%. Regarding fans, they said they'll still run fine as long as plugged into mb, even before driver/sw install

[@Karim-ik5ij]

Do the fans go lower than 25% RPM? making them dead silent?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

They are extremely quiet under around 850RPM. Yes, you could set them to 500 RPM

[@ikiminsane7258]

if you see this comment back i bought this prebuilt pc with a 1660 super amd am upgrading it to a 3060 is there anything i need to know?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Pretty much everything you need to know is explained in this video.

[@ArcturusCOG]

Make sure your psu can handle the 3060

[@IvoKurzemnieks]

So I understand that if I connect the controller to SYS_FAN instead of CPU_FAN, the AIO fans will not turn on until I'm in windows. Can I connect to CPU_FAN header instead of SYS_FAN? Will that work?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

That may be an issue with your BIOS because the fans should come on to whatever fan curve each fan header is set to. But to answer your question, sure, you can use an fan header. I personally just use the controller and plug it in to a USB 2.0 header and plug my AIO pump into my CPU_fan header. Control fan speeds with the software and the CPU_fan header with the BIOS

[@PlugZdahouseCat]

do they come with a set of screws for mounting to a rad

[@DanKamYouKnow]

No, the AIO will come with those screws.

[@oggigachad408]

Is it possible to turn off the rgb on the sides and only on the fans and the line thing?

How about 2 controllers, will there be any problems with Lconnect3?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

I’m not sure. How many fans are you planning on running? I tried a Google search and I don’t really see any info on it either.

[@JackRipfree]

@@DanKamYouKnow I was going to use 6 groups of fans in my O11DE. 3 + 3 on top, 3 to the side, 3 in front, 3 from below, 1 from behind (16 in total). Therefore, I wanted to divide them between two controllers.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Gotcha, I honestly don’t know if L-Connect 3 can handle 2 controllers. Trying to find info online to see if people have done it but don’t see any. You can try Lian Li support before you spend the money for the fans. Please let me know what you find out so I know for future use.

[@JackRipfree]

@@DanKamYouKnow actually, I have already found the answer in similar reviews. On your video (kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIKZp2trj8RnptE ) the tab "SL-inf Controller01" is highlighted, so when adding any controllers compatible with Lconnect 3, new tabs will appear (SL-inf Controller02... Controller SL-inf 03).

[@DanKamYouKnow]

That’s great to know! Thank you

[@gammafilter]

Is there a way to force the control to default to pass-through mode when it powers on?

[@DanKamYouKnow]

What do you mean by pass-through mode?

[@gammafilter]

@DanKamYouKnow the setting that allows the MB signal to be used a the ligh control. It's the "MB Sync Lighting" toggle. The default option for the controller is that i will display rainbow, even if the MB signal is red. If ypu start L-connect, Nd you have this toggle turned on then you fans will change to red. However if you allow this setting to be applied as default behavior the user wouldn't need to start extra software.

[@DanKamYouKnow]

Oh gotcha, the motherboard sync toggle in L-Connect 3. I have always used the application for all of my lighting control and I’m not currently utilizing the 5v RGB cables that plug into the board ( everything goes to my controller ). So I unfortunately don’t know if it will default to MB upon reboot. You might want to check a Lian Li forum or the many Lian Li users Facebook groups there are. Sorry I could be of more help

[@Virul_FTW]
