Hello, I need help for some reason I can't change the RGB of my fans. Asus Aura sync can't detect it. All of the argb headers are connected to Cooler Master ARGB/PWM Hub. I even tried the Cooler Master software it still can't detect the fans. Need help maybe I did something wrong or maybe you have suggestions. Motherboard: ROG STRIX B550-A GAMING Fans used (All from Cooler Master): MasterFan MF120 Halo x3 MASTER LIQUID ML360L V2 (SickleFlow 120 ARGB x3) Will provide more pics if needed.

I have 5 RGB Chasis Fans that are controlled by a chasis button. They work fine whenever I'm not gaming (I leave them on a static color), but from the moment I launch any game the fans start switching modes and colors ( they switch color to color and mode to mode like breathing to rainbow to static to pulse etc.). I have tried uninstalling Asus Aura Creator to see if the software is interfering with the RGB control but there was no luck. I hope to find a solution cause it's been really annoying and it really distracts me. Thanks in advance.

Summary Microsoft is looking to be incorporating integrated RGB lighting controls into Windows 11. The feature will allow you to adjust lighting effects for connected peripherals, accessories, and hardware directly in the Windows 11 Settings app. This was revealed in a recent Insider build. Where it shows a new section named “Lighting” listed under the Personalization area in Settings. Twitter user @albacore posted screenshots showing various RGB devices listed in the menu. Quotes My thoughts This is a very useful feature to have, if it ends up actually being added to Windows. I hope they expand the ability to control the RGB on other items too, like memory and GPUs. This is probably why it's an experimental feature currently, as it's probably hard to control all these various items through one seamless option (especially one integrated into the OS). I know there are some other RGB solutions out there like SignalRGB that allow to control different RGB products under one umbrella. If this level of functionality can be implemented in Windows 11, it will be highly convienent to many. I see one of the only downsides of this current implementation is that compared to say Corsair iCue, the customization options are much more limited. Although, this could possibly be addressed in future releases I'm sure.

Hello, I've been facing this problem recently. I did all the wiring and connections properly but after plugging in , the green light always stays on no matter what colour I choose. I also tried to turn off the rgb from software but green always stayed lit . And I made sure it wasn't a software or wiring/rgb issue by connecting it to a Bluetooth controller. I think its my motherboard.

Hey, recently i've got a problem with my motherboard which is Gigabyte Z370 gaming 5. Couple days ago ive decided to switch my RGB color, launched RGB Fusion 2.0 and while changing colors ive noticed that only the color of my 1070ti (also form Gigabyte) changes while the MB lights are still the same, decided to reinstall the app which didnt help at all, after spending some time looking through options and stuff i gave up and decided that im gonna head to bed, i've shut down the pc and there it is the MB lights are still on. Unplugged the psu cord which resulted in lights dying but when i plugged it back in they lit up again. All the things i do within the app or bios result in only gpu responding to the changes.The MB is constantly lit up doesnt matter if the pc is on or off and im unable to switch the colors. I've tried everything i could think of for now reinstalling the app, using OpenRGB reinstalling the drivers reinstalling the bios, updating the bios to f15 trying to change color of the lights / switching them off from bios reset the pc to factory settings (from windows settings) That didnt do anything. Im not much of a technical person so i dont rly know what else can i do to fix that. It used to work fine and broke after i tried to change it within the software. I tried to contact gigabyte support but they dont seem to be interested, probably gonna w8 3 days for an answer like " did you try to turn it off and on again ". Did any1 encounter something like that or similar and could help me out ? If thats possible id like it to work properly if not just turn it off completely so it doesnt illuminate my room at night. My PC specs are Gigabyte Z370 Aorus gaming 5 (F15 bios) Gigabyte 1070ti 8GB Intel i5-8600k 4.7 ghz OCd 16gb of Corsair 2133mhz RAM 1 TB ssd Win 10

So lately I've been having an issue with my Steelseries Aerox 3 mouse, where the RGB isn't working as intended. I have a profile in the Steelseries Engine and my RGB cycle is set to rotate between purple and cyan. But the mouse rotates between a very ugly yellow tone, pink, white and light blue. Even when switching configs it still has this in my opinion very ugly colour rotation. I tried resetting the mouse but it does only work for a few seconds after going back to the wrong colour rotation. My other Steelseries products work fine. Do you guys know what may be the problem and how to fix it?

So I have two sets of Corsair Vengeance PRO RGB RAM (16GB 3200 CL18 2x8GB kit) failed on me in last 4 years. Luckly, not the same failure, but I am still wondering if I am just unlucky or if I should check on something.... The first set if RAM was bought in 2019 Nov, and failed in 2021 April. See thread -> That set of ram was RMAed to Corsair, and I got my replacement in May 2021. But the replacement RAM didn't last long... The blue element in one of the LED seems failed on that set... I can't say exactly when, but I recall I noticed it sometime in 2022. I think memory chips are still functioning OK, at least no BSOD. As you can see in the picture, the right stick bottom LED is not functioning correctly... (Left picture is supposed to be pink/Magenta, the middle one is Cyan/light blue, and last picture is set to pure blue) I had contacted Corsair and sent my original kit's invoice for RMA... (recently upgraded to 32GB 3600 CL 16)

My Motherboard as mentioned in the title hasn‘t been showing up in any RGB software, whilst blinking orange. I am certain that it is not the indicator LED blinking orange, as it is in another place and its just the chipset‘s LEDs blinking for whatever reason. Can someone help me out here. PS: already re-installed countless of RGB softwares, updated the motherboards Bios and looked for an RGB setting in the Bios itself

Hi, I have a certain dilemma with my pc. All my fans and everything on the power/pwm side is working, but I have an issue on the RGB/ARGB side. I have 9 Lian li st-120W fans and a strimer v2 24 pins for motherboard power and strimer v2 2x8 pins for gpu power. My motherboard is a Rog strix B550-A Gaming. How do I wire everything to make every rgb parts work on the system? Thank you in advance

For example my Aorus GPU remembers that I set it to Steady White after reboots and I can even uninstall the Software. The same goes for my Corsair Ram and Keyboard, I just need to make sure I set the "Hardware Lighting" and not the "Software Lighting" option. But my MSI GeForce RTX 2080ti does not do the same through MSI Center->Mystic Lighting. I can set it, but if I then reboot it goes back to Rainbow RGB until I start MSI Center. Strangely I even need to manually re-apply. My goal is to have my entire PC set to Steady White on all LEDs, and not require the software to be running. The last ones I need to change are the small led effects on the ASUS board, and the MSI 2080ti.

This is my first build and it is for my younger brother. I plugged in the DMV connector into one of the headers of a fan splitter and the RGB controller (see imgae) fried. The RGB Controller came with the case ( the asus tuf gt301) Can someone please guide me as to what to do next? Can this be fixed/repaired?

Hi. So I have had the silverstone rl06 redline case for a while now, but I feel like it would be nice to get some quieter fans. Also maybe some egg fans with more colors than just red. So I had a few questions 1. Is aftermarket case fans often better than stock fans in cases? Currently I am looking at the “arctic p12 pwm pst a rgb 0db” since I can get 3 fans for the same price as 1 Corsair ll120, but is the Corsair worth that much extra, or is the performance the same? 2. is it the case or motherboard the dictates how many fans I can plug in? 3. right now I have 3 front fans and 1 in the back, but if I bought 6 new fans would 3 in the front, 2 above and one in the back be better? thanks for all your input. Also let me know if you have any good suggestions to some good case fans

THIS SHIT IS NUTS Their video

Alphasync prebuilt with an Asus Prime B550M-K Motherboard, 2x 8GB DDR4 Ram, Asus Mini OC 3060ti, Corsair CW650 power supply, Ryzen 7 3700x CPU. Spectrum RGB fans flicking when playing games, from what I can tell is that they are connected via a fan hub at the back of my pc, not sure if they're connected to my mobo. This was happening before and after undervolting my GPU as I suspected it to be a voltage problem but it still persists. Any ideas what this could be and how to fix? Example 1 Example 2

Hi friends. I have a new Asrock Z790 Pro RS Motherboard. I just built this PC and everything works perfectly. Now time to fine tune a few things here and there. When I turn my computer off when I'm done using it, the motherboards RGB and anything connected to the USB's are still powered up. My PC is in my bedroom and in order to sleep I have to turn the power off on the PCU. I have done a few hours of research, even emailed Asrock. They have not responded yet, its one of their newest motherboard so not much help on YouTube or google search results. I did check my BIOS and do not have the Deepsleep feature or anything with ErP or USB power. I did however find a way to turn off the RGB on the motherboard. Unfortunately on or off are the only options and USB's are not affected by the selection. Any suggestion is much appreciated.

I'm going to buy fans and I just saw the AsiaHorse brand. Even though it seems sketchy, multiple people have said it is actually a good budget fan. I need a little more convincing though before I buy them tho. link: https://www.newegg.com/p/1YF-00SS-00057?Item=9SIAJ00FK35080&Description=arctic p12&cm_re=arctic_p12-_-9SIAJ00FK35080-_-Product&cm_sp=SP-_-1400082-_-0-_-3-_-9SIAJ00FK35080-_-arctic p12-_-arctic|p12-_-19

Hello LTT! i have a question regarding RGB... All my PC and peripherals are from Corsair but i have a Gigabyte GPU and want to sync RGB with the rest of my PC. I usually choose one color for everything so can i just download Gigabyte RGB app and use it just for GPU and use ICue for the rest? Also sometimes i get 2 colors on RAM with ICUE... is there a way to fix that? Or it will cause trouble ? Thank you.

Hi! So today I've finished spray painting my mouse (Chillblast aero rgb gaming mouse) and I can't get over how damn good it looks now I want the community to give me a rating of the mouse on looks /style and colour combo. This was my first time actually spray painting so I want everyone's ideas and tips and improvents I could do for future preferences. I'll give you an original and after. I spray painted it because it will fit my white keyboard and my Japanese blossom tree desk mat! (Also the mouse hasn't been reassembled but the shells are there with the base)

I got "Ant Esport 250 Air" case. It came with 3 pre-installed argb (auto rgb not addressable rgb) fans. 2 fans have 4 pin cable, 1 fan has 6 pin( 2 of these pins is was connected to reset switch). 4 pins of of these 3 fans are connected (daisy chained). And these 3 plugs are then connected to a 3 pin adapter (adapter plug doesn't have 3rd pin, i think it is preserved for rgb data) kind of plug. pressing reset switch changes rgb effect on all fans. originally I think 12volt is connected to motor, 5volt to LEDs. pin 2 is common ground for for both motor and LED. pin 3 is for sharing rgb data across 3 fans. I connected it to psu with molex adapter but fans are too loud. So I removed the 12volt cable and merged it with 5volt. now both motor and rgb are getting 5volt. now fan is running quietly at reduced speed, but LEDs are not turning on. plugging the fans into unmodded molex then both fans and LEDs work. please help.

Hello, I recently bought a new CPU fan and I installed everything correctly through a video, but when I turned on my PC, everything worked fine with the fan except for the RGB, fan is spinning and working and I plugged the RGB cable into the RGB header on the motherboard. I even tried to use the provided controller but that did not work either. I went to BIOS and turned the CPU fan to full power to see if that would fix it, but it did not. I was wondering if I could get any help with getting the RGB to work? Thank you!
