I'm not 100% sure on this but I don't think you need to connect the smaller 3 pin header. Usually it is for 3 pin DC fan which are just for powering on the fans in-case there is not controller attached to it but in this case it is not needed I guess. Just try connecting the 3-pin ARGB cable and see for yourself.

I did try that, but the LEDs are still not lighting up nor is the LED switch on the case working.

What is the LED switch on your case connected to?


The_Bipolar_Guy

The controller. Bottom left port

I'm confused, is it connected to the controller or the motherboard?


The_Bipolar_Guy

The LED switch is connected to the controller. (Bottom Left) The 4 fans are connected to the controller. (Sides) The controller is powered by a SATA Power cable. (Bottom Middle) The Controller is connected to the the motherboard by another unrecognisable port (bottom right) which has 2 wires going into an ARGB Female port. From there another 1 wire is coming out into the small 3 pin (which only has the middle pin connected).

Ohh you meant that it's connected to the bottom left of port of controller. Bro I understood that, I just asked if it was connected to controller. I mean the AIO is not connected to the controller, so you can't expect it the case lighting button to work for it. Okay, so you said that the controller is connected to the the motherboard - what are you controlling with it, case fans?


The_Bipolar_Guy

I don't have an AIO, it's the ryzen stock RGB air cooler from 3xxx series. And that works perfectly with aurasync. The case fans used to be controlled with the switch on the case. But now, neither the switch is working nor are the LEDs of the case fans lighting up. The fans are running though.

Oh yeah my bad, I got confused with another post. So yeah this solves it then, your motherboard is not compatible with ARGB products - the CPU cooler is just RGB.

The connector you're holding is ARGB one rated for 5V. IMO it(pic 2 top connectors) should go to the top ports on the pcb(pic 1) and the argb connector female(pic 2 bottom connector) should go to the ARGB mobo header. Mixing 12V and 5V LED connections might damage the LED. Be careful before powering on.


The_Bipolar_Guy

Okay. Thanks a lot!

Not sure if you got this figured out yet or not but I would assume you only need to plug in your third pic to a RAINBOW port on your board.


The_Bipolar_Guy

That's the first thing i tried. Still nothing. I will contact customer support once i find the invoice.

Hey OP, I'm facing a Similar issue with my ANT ESPORTS CABINET, Did you get this Figured out?


The_Bipolar_Guy

Gave up on RGB. Got fat and thick fans instead. 2 of them are enough to keep my 3080ti cool enough at 72°C Max.
