Review on πŸ”Œ AsiaHorse VE-HUB 2IN1 SATA Powered ARGB/PWM Hub - 9 Ports for Addressable RGB Lighting and PWM Control (Black) by Craig Sethuraman

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent product with shaky connection tolerances.

In general I like the product. He does what he advertises. It supports up to 9 PWM fans and up to 9 5V ARGB devices. It "seems" light and possibly flimsy, but its construction is actually pretty solid. This hub is the best option to control the speed of multiple (together, not individually) and targeted lights using your motherboard's default software. This will not work with fans like Corsair or Liang Li Uni fans that have proprietary connectors. I use it with 7 Fractal Design Prisma fans and it's great that I only use AuraSync to control everything. I only have 3 minor issues with the product. I don't consider any of them a deal breaker. 1) PWM sockets are very narrow. Turning off the fan takes a lot more effort than you might think. I was afraid to strip the fan wires from the connectors attached to the hub. Unfortunately, the RGB connectors are incredibly loose. 2) PWM/ARGB signal input cable did not receive RGB signal from motherboard initially (PWM signal was ok). Although this cable snapped shut to the hub, the connection wasn't tight enough. Once again I had to try harder to get it to work. 3) It would be better if it had magnetic strip instead of velcro.
