MSI Argb lighting flashes black randomly

[Applesauce69]

I have 9 Msi Argb fans, 3 came with a 360m rad, and an AIO Argb cpu block light.

 

have 2 6 way splitters from EK powering their leds. 6 fan Argb on one and the other 3 with the cpu block light on the other.

 

I’ve tried several other splitters and hubs and they all caused major flickering or just didn’t work. The splitters I have now do work, but some of the connections into the splitter are a bit weak so I sticky taped them together.

 

The Argb lights work as intended for a majority of the time but every now and then  they all turn off for a split second and come back on like nothing happened, it’s really off putting and annoying.

 

My specs are:

Msi Gaming force Z590

I5-11600k

32gb - 4x8 3200mhz c16 Corsair Lpx

Gtx 1080ti Fe

750w Msi psu

 

Many thanks for any help.

are the splitters powered? because the mb argb header has a max of 3 amps.

No it’s just a 6way Argb splitter to a single Argb header.

I hope it’s not the msi software lol. I’ll have to unplug some things and have a look then.

I gave the splitters sata power and they all still flash black every now and then.

well im just guessing. really test you have to unplug everything and test each thing. if it still dose it then that probably it. if you can test with out using the mb header to see if that it.
