RGB not working properly on my HyperX Fury RGB RAM sticks

Hi. My parents gave me a new kit of RAM sticks for my birthday (love them haha). These are 2 x 8 GB 3200 MHz CL16 HyperX Fury RGB memories (part number: HX432C16FBA3K2/16) and i'd like to use them for a new PC i'm building.

 

However, i tried them on my current system and couldn't manage to change the RGB lightning patterns. The memories are being recognized by my system just fine, as noted both in the BIOS and task manager. However, they are, by default, on that shi**y rainbow pattern and i rather have them off than stay like that, however, nor Aura syn nor MSI mystic lightning seems to recognize those. I already have a pair of Trident Z RGB memories working fine with aura sync.

 

I tried all sort of things to make the newer memories work: on the software side, 3 versions of aura sync, MSI gaming app, MSI mystic lightning, i even reseted my whole PC (it was long overdue and when Aura sync stopped working after the third uninstall and reinstallation, i decided to go for it) and nothing. On the hardware side, i tried switching slots, turning off the PSU for a few minutes and trying again, having them installed alone without the trident Z RGB memories and, of course, trying them with the trident z pair installed as well. Nothing. The HyperX fury memories arrived just yesterday so i'm in time to ask for a replacement/refund.... but being it  agift from my parents, i'd like to give them a chance!

 

Current system specs:

 

Mobo: MSI H270 gaming M3

CPU: Core I7 7700

GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 SC

RAM: 2 x 8 Trident Z RGB (3000 mhz, CL15) + 2 x 8 HyperX Fury RGB

Cooling: air, Thermaltake Nic C4

PSU: some EVGA 80+ 550W (sorry, can't remember exact model)

Case: Phanteks P400s

Same kit, Aura Sync had to be re-installed up to the latest version for them to work.

In some cases you may have to enable SPD WRITE for the sticks in the Motherboard BIOS.

I tried a total of 4 different Aura Sync versions (including the oldest version i had installed from before and the 3 currently listed on Asus website). None worked (currently using Lighting control 1.07.71).

 

I juest checked the board's manual and this one doesn't seem to allow eanbling SPD write. I just updated the boards BIOS and neither i could find that option anywhere, nor the RGB problem was solved (Aura sync still won't recognize those).
