    I just received my Cryo LX and it is really nice. I do have questions to LX owners,

    1. I noticed that the laptop can also power the LX. Does it produce the same RPM and airflow as if it were plugged into an outlet?

    2. USB ports does not have power output and will not charge plugged devices if the LX is not plugged to the laptop. Can this be changed?

    3. What if I have both power outlet and laptop plugged in, which one is powering the fans?

    Thanks for any help!

    if u are using the OEM-provided wires then the USB to USB is for the fans and the USB to A/C-looking plug is to power the hub.
