Hey guys, would I be able to use 2 different CLCs (280 and 120) on the software? or it will only recognize just one of them? if that's the case I have to return the 120mm and get a different company's one.
thanks a lot!

If both of them are evga I would think they would both be controllable in the software.

well I think it aint recognizing both , I don't see both CLCs on the the software. Anyway the 2nd 120mm AIO is for the GPU along with the nzxt kraken g12 mount, I just connected it to pump header on the motherboard and I have set it on 100% on bios so I guess I don't need the software after all.. but thanks for the reply : )

They would Both need to be attached to the USB ports of the MB @ the same time --> to be Seen & MB Header set to 100% power

The software would control which ever one is connected to the USB header. You could always set the CLC to what you want and then turn off the computer and plug the cable into the other then set the software for what you want that CLC to do. You could then turn off the computer and unplug the cable or you could keep it plugged in if you want to keep the ability to control. I don't know what would happen if both hand a USB cable plugged in at the same time.

so my method is fine then? the 280mm via usb + cpu1 fan header which is the one reconized by the software. the 120mm I plugged to the pump header then I set that header to "DC" instead of PWM which automatically makes it to run at 100% I think. am I right?

These Coolers Are NOT designed for PWM - run them at 100% on the MB Header
1st, my 120mm CLC doesn't have a usb cable / hole as much as I know (it's the non rgb version, I think cl11 it's called, if that matters). and as I said I pluuged the 280mm into CPU1 header, the 120mm plugged into the pump header, both headers I have set on DC on motherboard since DC means it will go 100% power , that's what was I supposed to be doing right? thanks a lot!

oh and I think it doesn't matter so much what settings do I put on the cpu header(where I pluuged the 280mm pump header), cuz anyway it's the one being recognized by the software and I have just set the pump to be max power, as for the 120mm pump it's at the pump header and it's at 100% ( I think theres a bug cuz it says it's at 5k rpm, the pump, but doesn't matter, it's on maximum ) by the way, I just don't remember if I can connect the 2 fans which are on the radiator straight to the cooler? I can't remember if they are connected to the pump (if possible) or if I have connected em to a regular system header. could you remind me please if such an option is available? (connecting the fans to the pump straight )

Connect fan and pump to the motherboard's 3- or 4- pin fan headers I use a powered Fan hub - to minimize the load on the MB & make cable management easier  EVGA CLC Manual (excerpt) Intel and AMD steps after installing the pump / CPU WBA.
Install radiator an d fan (intake provides the best performance). Connect fan and pump to the motherboard's 3- or 4- pin fan headers; please check your motherboard's manual for the location of its fan headers, as connecting this to an incorrect jack can potentially cause irreparable damage to component It is recommended to enter your motherboard BIOS and set the fan header connected to the CLC to 100%. Otherwise you may get a WB not detected error in your OS. Install the USB cable to enable PWM-tuning via software. Connect the cable from the CPU pump to the USB 2.0 front panel header on the motherboard
