ActuallySmithy Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Hey there, I had this going on for quite some time now: I thought that it would just get fixed by a normal iCUE update... HOWEVER it never did. I am just now wondering whether the issue is with my hardware or it has got something to do with something else. So the problem in detail is that when I start my PC only two fans are working, from the start on. To specify, I mean the RGB is only working on two of them. The other 4 are going wild.... switching lighting patterns, switching leds of and on... it really looks like a christmas RGB tree out of control .... AFTER SOME TIME HOWEVER everything gets back to the actual state set in iCUE. HENCE I do not know what the actual problem is as it seems to work after some time. Has anyone made similar experiences? Let me know. Kindest, Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 You are likely looking for a physical problem on RGB fan #3. Most controllers are a series circuit and if fan 3 blows out an LED, the fans after go dark. However, sometimes it’s not a clean break and you get intermittent signal down the line. That causes all the wacky behavior. I am going to assume the two working fans are in slots 1-2. Take number 3 and switch it with 6. If 3 is the bad fan, then 1-5 will work and 6 will still be out of control. If you want to be thorough, you can test each fan in slot 1 with the controller set to white to look for bad LEDs. If there is more than 1, you want to catch it before filing the RMA request with Corsair Support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
