  1. I see, so with all fans and pump plugged in, only the fan doesn't want to work. As stated it lights up, just white with no RGB control. As per the specs list, each fan LED uses 0.48A and so does the pump LED. So that's a total of 3.36A over 7 RGB devices powered from a sata which can carry ~13A right? Trying to set it up so that all fans and pump are set up to display the same effect.
  2. Put together a new system today in the DeepCool Matrexx 70 Add-RGB case and in the case I have a total of 6 RGB fans, 3x CF120mm and 3x DeepCool CF140mm, 2 of which are on my DeepCool Castle 280mm RGB v2. The 4 case fans are connected to the fan hub that came with the DC Castle and are powered by 1 system fan header on the motherboard and all seem to be spinning correctly, can even change the RPM's and all. The 2 radiator fans are connected to a 2 into 1 cable and plugged into another system fan header on the motherboard. The Add-RGB (fans and pump) are connect to a daisy chain cable and that daisy chain cable is connected to another daisy chain cable giving a total of 6x aRGB plugs, both daisy cables came with the DC Castle (I think, I had a lot of cables to deal with) and they are connected to the RGB controller that also came with the DC Castle and that is powered by sata. The case has it's own 'control' (a button atop the case) which can power and control the RGB, but I opted for the other control as it has more RGB options. So the issue I am facing is, with all the fans and the pump plugged into the daisy chains all the fans light up and are controlled correctly but the pump just lights up white and is unable to be controlled but if I unplug 2 fans the pump lights up and is able to be controlled as normal. I thought maybe this had something to do with there not being enough power. It doesn't matter if the pump is plugged into the first plug on the daisy chain, or the last plug, it won't be RGB. If it were a power issue why would it light up at all? Have drawn up a little diagram in paint to better describe the configuration. If anyone can point me in the right direction to get all the lights working correctly I'd be super thankful.
