Your Lian Li fan problems and questions answered

[@blutdogify]

Lian LI is definitely my go to fans for my rigs, the reverse fans are a game changer when it comes to aesthetics.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Yeah they're a simple but nice change for the look of the build. Especially for the infinity fans

[@kingghidorah8106]

there's many brands with reverse fans too, that are not as expensive and that have RGBW instead of just RGB.

[@cornelius0ng]

@@kingghidorah8106please give examples so I can consider for my future build

[@302daddyd]

Lian Li needs to get their act together with their software. This is ridiculous that you gotta manually download the new version and uninstall the old version. Corsair's Icue is light years ahead in terms of how easy it is to update the firmware and app, all on the app.

Lconnect can't even stick to the speed you set so the fans make an oscillating sound.

This is a great video. And very important. Especially because the SL-Inf and the TL now have different controllers as well, not to mention the LCD AIO is different as well.

Thank you for the great breakdown of the controller and what ports need to be used. I was about to go order a new USB Hub and discovered I dont need it at all.

Glad it helped!

[@markn6416]

Good Advice. I recently built a new system with (4) Lian Li SL fans and (3) Lian Li TL LCD fans. They are working great now, but were problematic to get working properly. The main issue that I ran into was that both of the Lian Li controller boxes would not be recognized by the Lian Li software unless they were plugged directly into the motherboard USB fan header (no splitter) or into the 1st USB port in a USB hub. Hopefully this problem has been fixed with the latest firmware update. Keep in mind that the TL fans do not include additional cables to separate the fans into 2 differnt areas of your PC and that you cannot daisy chain TL and SL fans. The only other issue that I encountered was with the triangular rubber pieces that push into the corners of the SL fans began to curl outward slightly with less than 24 hours of use. This is strictly a cosmetic issue, but is annoying on a premium product.

[@MoRe0708]

Hi mark, I have the first problem the L-connect doesn’t recognise my 4 lian li lcd and 3 normal lian li tl without lcd or even my 3 lian li al and the problem is I don’t use any type of splitter or extender or hub it’s plugged directly into the motherboard,do you know what should I do? 😢 hopefully you can help sorry to bother you.

[@lukestiv]

You could also mention that it helps if you go to "Quick/Sync Lighting" and on the top right corner there`s the Export Import tabs so you can save your fan speed settings, light settings etc instead of reapplying them if you had to re-install the software.

[@Scottys1991]

One of my issues with L-connect is it causes stuttering in games. I still use it and close it within task manager. I think it is a problem unique to 7800x3d chips. But if you have a better work around, I would love to hear it!

[@cks2020693]

is it resolved for you? I have a 7800X3D with Lian Li fans, haven't had any stuttering issues

[@Scottys1991]

@cks2020693 actually seems to be updated the software by uninstalling then reinstalling a new version!

[@SimBunker]

I had the exact same problem. It was peaking at about 30% due to an .exe it runs (I've done a video on this) I was running the TL LCD fans with hardware feedback/visuals. But once I changed all that to static JPEG, those spikes are gone. I too am running 7800x3d. So you maybe into something there.

Thank you so much doing video about this. You wont believe how many including me looking YT videos like that and testings are done with many fans and groups together. Also reverse blade is more important than ever due to wanting mirror or LCD facing correct way. Also the push pull is what i looked for with these fans and AIO configuration and 95% YT videos never try that. Thanks to your previous videos i orderd correct amount of Lian Li Uni reverse fans. I would have ordered wrong ones if i didnt see your videos.

Recently discovered your videos and have been finding them really helpful! I'm getting ready to do a new build since my pump on my old one is failing and can't seem to find a single aio to fit my old socket. My new build is practically Lian Li everything! Got the 011 dynamic evo xl, strimers, infinity fans (three 120 reverse blade for the radiator, three 140 reverse blade for bottom, three 140 for the top and a pack of 120s so I could have one for the back and get the hub), looks like I'm making out too because Amazon sent me the wrong package and instead of getting my Galahad II lcd aio I got a 3 pack of the lcd fans that they are letting me keep and am just waiting on getting my replacement Galahad. I'm really excited but also nervous since it's going to be the first time building the pc myself! I'm curious about the L-connect software, you recommend uninstalling the old software and reinstalling it for the new versions, does that wipe your settings every time you do that? Do you have to reconfigure all of your settings for lighting and fan controls or is it carried over on the new install? Also, with the Galahad, from what I can tell and have seen, they want the lcd screen with pump tubes on the bottom. Since I plan on side mounting my radiator, if I have my motherboard installed moved up a bit higher will there be enough room for the tubes to go under the RAM to not block the RGB lights on them? Any recommendations for that?

[@GoWstingray]

Issues I've had so far since owning Lian Li fans and AIO for a month or so: 1. 120mm Exhaust fan rubs on it self at higher speeds; Cant seem to see where from after inspecting and its intermittent, might RMA. 2. Screens on the LCD can revert to the Lian Li logo, after the system has been on for a while, restarting LConnect 3 does nothing and I have to cycle the power. 3. Screws don't get tight in some of the fans like the thread is striped even though I have not overly tightened them, like they are made form cheese. 4. Fans are over sized so didn't fit into the NZXT H6 case, had to return case and buy O11 Vision, as I really wanted the fans. 5. LConnect 3 is temperamental, some of the animations for the AIO screen are just crap, but at least you can customise quite well. 6 The clear bearing cover on the TL fans looks unfinished and cheap, no wonder they on show spinning on the website. 7. Cables out the AIO block, especially the USB are large, stick out to much and hard to route, the 90 degrees bend on the USB makes it hit the other cable and I just don't know why it cant be one connector. 8. Hard to sync all the lighting on the fans in LConnect 3. 9. The shades of white between the Galahad AIO block and fans are way different. System: O11 Vision White, Lian Li GPU Vertical Mount, 3x140mm Uni Fan TL Reverse, 3x120mm Uni Fan LCD Reverse, 1 x 120mm Uni Fan normal. Galahad II LCD 360, 14700k, MSI Z790 Edge, 32GB G Skill Trident Z 7200, MSI RTX 4080 Gaming X Slim White. Love the fans though, look really smart, bit disappointed with the rubbing fan though. As for the AIO block, I think the Corsair AIO LCD looks better but it still looks good. Let me know if anyone wants a quick video of the system to see how looks, I can post on my channel, was a bit peed off as well the slashes on on the 4080 Gaming X slim fan shroud don't light up, like they do in the product images but 3rd world problems hey.

Mate so you can add a single fan to the controller hug using a flat connector? Do the flat connector that comes with the 3x pack infinity fans, can be use in a single infinity fan?????

[@MartinGod3992]

One annoyance I have with LianLi fans is the fact that I have to use 3 seperate controllers to get 3 (3 sets of 3 fans) different fan RPMs controlled by another controller (Aquacomputer Octo) plus the rats nest of wires coming from the controllers that isnt needed (5V ARGB, 2 SATA connectors etc) I feel like they should've made a seperate controller thats 1 port only thats 1/4 the size

[@Eden-vm8sb]

So if i plug the fans on the radiator to the controller, I do not need the cpu_fan header at all, and just need to adjust the fan speeds in the software? Also the one cable that connects a set of 3 fans to the controller does both the rgb and power?

[@kidcancer87]

Thank you for this. I've watched your other 2 or 3 Lian Li videos from 2022 which is how I realized my mistakes (and Lian Lis terrible packing of hardware.) I've had a nightmare trying to connect these for my first build (Hyte y70, 7800X3D, 4090) but bought 2 3pks v1, 1 single v1 and the AIO. AIO controller is where I ran into the issue because the 3pks don't connect to that but the singles do. So returned one of the 3pks to get 3 singles and use the connectors that come with those to hook up to the AIO controller unit (bought the Lian Li USB splitter but was going to over complicate things for my first time building so thats currently a waste) Also saw that Lian Li Computex booth this year and they're talking about v3(?) and how they're doing away with all the wire complications (which does me no good now cause I'm already invested. Luckily I took advantages of all the sales that were happening a week ago)

[@DenHvideHund]

Do you have experience with the TL fan LCD's just showing white flickering, when selecting "sensor" from the dropdown. Everything else on the fans works fine. They can do images, videos and animations just fine. But as soon as I select "sensor" to see CPU, GPU etc. temp info, they just have this white flickering on the default style. Seleting other styles kinda works, but not 100%. No text is displayed, no matter which style, but the "template" for the style is shown, except for style 1, which is just white flickering. I have wired it according to the specfications. The TL controller is on it's own USB connection on the mobo, the 6pin power is on one of the spares for the GPU power. Lian li is not really helping with this, even tho I filed a service request. I have seen on reddit, that other people have the same problem.

[@TheLoloname]

Sorry I am late to the party although I have a question I can't seem to find the answer to. If you have multiple model Lian Li fans in your build (such as TL coupled with SL-INF) does the software work as if they were all the same and manage to sync the lights going throughout the build or its every model of fans with its capabilities and slightly different light game?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

I haven't really done that but there are some universal lighting options that can sync across the fans yes. Different models might have other options though

Installed the lian li tl-lcd fans today. But the problem is while the fans do spin and the lcd is on, the rgb doesn't work. Even with changing hub ports, usb and rgb connector. I installed microsoft visual c++ from their site, i then installed l-connect 3. I installed the latest drivers. But when i go to TL-fan utility, at the top it says TL Controller01. But on the page it says: " the number of fans is set to 0, please click the button to reset". And when i click on set fan quantity, it takes me to settings where it does show the hub. But with fans it says "fan total 0/0" Do someone might know a fix?

Use ports 2, 3, or 4 for your LCD fans.

@@Zufield Yea i found the problem a few days ago. It wasn't that. After a few hours of finding it. It was a single broken pin onn the connector, which would still rotate the fan and show the rgb. But the software wouldn't notice the fan and so it didn't show the new driver update for that 1 particular fan and wouldn't let me change the image in the screen because the software didn't recognize it. While it did allow me to change the rgb and fan curve in the app. I returned it and should be getting a new one soon.

if my case came with an rgb controller and a button dedicated to it, and i end up switching the fans to these, could the button still work with the lian li fans? and if you had more than one rgb controller (both lian li) would you still have to connect both of your sata from ur psu to one?

I have a question. I’ve ever been connected. I haven’t downloaded the software yet.

Is that an issue with the RGB wiring or does it manually need to be set up in the software before it displays properly? I have the pump wired in with the fan control controller because I have an extra one. I’ve tried the RGB to the motherboard and the control controller and it just stays white.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Without knowing which pump it's hard to say but yes it could be software needed

[@noahschaub1984]

@@TheProvokedPrawn it’s the GA 2 trinity sl-inf 240 aio. It works perfect with L-connect but is completely unresponsive to motherboard RGB. When connected to motherboard RGB it will work for about half a second and then the pump just goes back to solid white. The fans work just fine All other RGB devices work with no issue and I’ve tried every RGB header individually.

Is there even a diffrnece in performance between the strix 4090 oc vs non oc verions?

🤷🏼‍♂️ I assume so but it's not something I've tested

Am I correct and is it only possible to connect 6 fans to one port?? At least it looks like to me as I have a push pull config with 4 fans on each side of the radiator. I daisy chained them. But the software only shows 6 for each port.

Four fans per port for a total of 16 if I recall correctly kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmLCaYBsiJ6LgJI

There a way to control TL 120 fans without downloading L Connect?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/naenh5ygi5mkrLc You'd have to use motherboard controls via the sync option. Not sure why you would though

I am having an issue where the rgbs in my aio are not lighting up and my system is not recognizing the lian li hardware I have tried everything including sending the unit back for a new one. I have the same issue so it’s definitely something that I am doing wrong. Lian Li L connect 3 doesn’t recognize there is anything there so I don’t get options to control any of the fans/rgbs.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

All connected correctly? Including the sata power to psu and usb to motherboard?

[@MrDasterlydan]

@@TheProvokedPrawn yes I checked it four times moved things around the fans light up but the aio doesn’t. My computer doesn’t recognize the devices so I can’t manually update them. I have an Asus Z-690- G it might be a comparability issue

I'm currently waiting on a whole mess of infinity fans to arrive so i can upgrade my build, but i heard (after i ordered) that if the hub ever loses power (i.e. psu power switch is flipped off) you'll lose you're saved rgb and fan curve profiles, is that true? If so... I'll be ditching the hub and connecting direct to the motherboard. I like to turn the psu off all the way after i shut my system down

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

That's not true

[@bulletboy159]

What fan is best for an AIO? UNI FAN TL or UNI FAN SL-INF? Both look nice i just wanna pick the best performer for on a radiator.

[@Tsukuu_]

have both, both looking great, TL led effects are more brighter and they have bigger morror, infinity have iluminated blades. Month into using it ends for me in RMA 3 of the TL fans, led burning out and failing coils. Thankfully LianLi support working great with replacing them. Overall I preffer InF > TL

[@SevenBlades]

I can’t find the controller for 6 140mm reverse + 140mm reg fans…

You need the standard fan controller for whatever fans you're using. It can take 4 fans per port.

God knows whats going on with my system, I've had my rig just over a year which I won in a competition pretty high end system but came pre built, im not the best with tech issues and my rig has run like a dream for a year but the past month one set of my Lian Li daisy chain fans are running full RPM whilst the other 2 sets are running perfectly the noise is driving me crazy and for the love of God I cant find a fix, cant control the fans in BIOS cant control the fans from Connect 3 software, nor MSI centre, or the Kraken cooler, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated I also downloaded 3rd party software last night called Fan control hoping that I could control the fans from there, only issue was it didn't even recognise the fans in my rig only GPU fan and Pump fan whatever that means.

Hi, i have a problem with my fans. All of my fans are spinning good, but on 6 of my fans, the rgb doesnt work anymore ) i have 9 total 120mm fans ), only the rgb on the radiator fans work. I tried everything, update firmware manually, change cable in different port, bought new psu. Nothing seems to work. Theres a little bit of rgb light on 1 of my bottom fan, but in general, the bottom fans and upper fans there is no rgb anymore. Are the fans just broken or ?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Sounds like a loose connection on the cable at the fan end maybe?

[@milano8929]

@@TheProvokedPrawn all of a sudden ? And both bottom and top ?. I checked everything. I will check again

Be very careful with the USB connection. It is extremely delicate on the controller. You can only plug it in once. I unplugged it from the controller and it broke off the connections inside.

What do I need to do if one fan port showing 0 in RPM? but the ARGB and fan is working? I have replaced the cable, doesn't fix the issue. Is anyone else having the same problem?

[@AG-sb7pu]

Why do my fans keep flickering? I just installed them...i got the wireless ones

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Insufficient power perhaps? If you are running them off fan headers then go into the bios and set the fans to pwm mode. Otherwise try connecting them to the sata power cable and to your psu directly instead

[@tiltingart9276]

Is push-pull even worth it? I read that it's only a 1-3% °C difference, vs a standar 3 120's. I also don't like how it looks (top mount), I can still put them in but I feel like id be throwing away money

It's varies depending on the setup in my experience. Makes quite a difference with an i9 but there are other options (like undervolting or running faster fans)

[@WadeRavenWatts]

I would start swapping them around. I had the exact same issue with the SL series. You kind of have to mix and match them one by one. Don't ask me why, but the same 3-pack was only willing to work if they were connected in a specific order. Connect one at a time, if it spins then connect the next and so on. Sadly, this isn't a new problem and power delivery seems to be a part of it. Before I started swapping them, the last 3 of 9 fans were literally just twitching instead of spinning properly P. S. I see now you had a controller problem. Still, sometimes the ghost lies in a design flaw 😎
