I have Three fans in my case. All of the are CoolerMaster MasterFan Pro 120mm. Two are air-pressure (on the radiator, came with the AIO) and one Air-flow as en exhaust. All of them connected to the same RGB Header (there is only one on the board) via 4-way splitter and controlled through ASUS AURA software.

The problem is that there is a notisable difference in color between the three, as you can see in the picture. The AP have a blueish, almost white, while the AF fan have a purple tint.

Not a big deal, just mildly annoying that identical fans show different colors. Usualy they set to Orange, where the difference is less noticable, but still. Anyone else encountered somthing like that?

Not familiar with the actual RGB differences in those fans if any, or if this is a defect, but how does solid green compare between the fans?

When set to solid green there's almost no difference. it's most noticeable in white.

Weird. When set to white, the AF fan is just too dim on the green then for whatever reason, giving the purple tint.
