Crystal 570X RGB case / RGB fans - Help

Recommended Posts

My setup as following:

 

CPU: AMD 3950x

MB: Gigabyte x570 master

Case: 570x RGB

Cooler: H150i Pro 360mm

1 Corsair LL120 RGB 120mm Dual Light Loop rear mount fan

2 Corsair LL140 RGB 140mm Dual Light Loop top mount fan

6 front fans (push and pull): 3 RGB fans that came with the 570x and 3 fans on the H150i Pro radiator (these 3 are not RGB fans)

 

As you can see all 6 ports are occupied on the RGB controller hub. All 6 fans have power, but one is only half-lit and it's plugged into port #6; only port #6 has this problem. I swapped the plugs around on the RGB controller hub. Fully lit fans to port #6, the fan from port #6 to a working fan port, such as #5 or #4. The results are: the RGB fans are fine and the LEDs are working; however, only have white lights for the top-mounted & rear-mounted fans. Front case fans that came with the 570x case can change colors. :!: I thought it might be software related. I installed iCUE, but I can only see the CPU cooler and the PSU under "Devices" in iCUE. When I click on the + on the Dashboard tab, I don't see RGB fans. What am I missing here or not doing right? Corsair even sent me a 2nd RGB controller hub, still... no luck.

Please help, thank you!

They are for additional SP-RGB Fans.

 

While mixing fan types on a single channel/fan hub isn't supported, you can make it work with most fans EXCEPT For the SP-RGB fans. They use a completely different control protocol than the rest of the RGB devices.

 

So you'll need a Lighting Node Pro and additional fan hub, at least. These come with the LL fan multipack.

 

This is all explained in detail and with diagrams in the RGB FAQ that I already recommended. Please review that.

I am still within the return window for these LL fans. I guess I can return the LL fans and get the SP fans. These guys right?

 

The SP RGB.
