I recently bought a Corsair case that includes three LX-R fans and the LINK controller. I also have nine AsiaHorse Cosmiq fans from my previous build. Should I gradually move to an all-Corsair setup, run both brands together, or replace the Corsair fans with AsiaHorse fans so everything matches? I'm mainly wondering about software compatibility, lighting control, fan management, cost, and whether switching ecosystems is worth it.

A mixed setup is probably the most practical choice. Corsair’s fans can generally be controlled through third-party RGB software, so you may not need to replace anything immediately. Keep the included fans, connect the AsiaHorse fans through their own compatible hub or controller, and see whether you actually run into control or synchronization problems before spending more money.
The Corsair fans should work fine with SignalRGB, so you can at least try controlling both brands from one application before committing to a single ecosystem.
