AUTORGB Fans possible to turn off?

Legion

Hey All,

 

Not sure if this is the right location, got a number of ARGB fans with my AIO and I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to turn them off.

I've replaced the fans on the aio but am still using the argb ones for extra airflow.

They aren't addressable in anyway so far i've only managed to dim them by dropping the fan voltage in the bios. Wondering if i could cut a wire to do it but not sure.

I was only living because it was too much trouble to die.

Which side of the connection do you want me to strip back?

Looks like 2+1 pin on the fancontroller side and 4 Pin on the fan side.

You have to cut off the connection from inside the fan controller where the wire is being held in place.

The only way to do that is to disassemble the fan and take out the connection manually.

So via trial and error it seems to be wired in sequence with the motor.. unfortunately the wires were all black too. Played a fun game of splice all the wires.

The only way now is to buy new fans
