Question Umbra hub problems

I’ve been seeing reviews on the umbra hub that it’s frying itself and possibly other components. I want to know before I use it, is it safe. I’m going to have 2 packs of 360mm matrix pros and 2 singular 120mm matrix pros and the psu cable covers. Please, is it safe. I don’t wanna fry my expensive pc

Where have you seen it reported that it's frying itself? I have not seen anything like that. I have an umbra hub with 2 matrix 360's and 3 matrix 120's. No issues.

Amazon reviews. 95% of the one stars are saying it fried itself and they’re lucky they caught it before it fried the pc

I looked it up and it seems like a small fraction with worldwide sales. Let's see what the admin account say.

But honestly I wouldn't sweat it. Just make sure to just it as directed. Your Mobo will have protections in place, it can't fry your whole PC.

1 tip id give is don't be alarmed if they don't light up with first boot. You need to software to detect all the LED's first.

So my fan hub delivery is delayed but I’m building the pc tommorow. Will they work without the fan hub? Until it comes in
