Question Need help with argb fans only showing one colour.

[binefan]

Hello.

I have a problem. I have 4-pin motherboard (https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B450M-DS3H-rev-1x#kf) and 3-pin fans (https://cougargaming.com/products/cooling/vortex-vx120/). I am using conventor (https://www.deepcool.com/products/Accessories/accessories/2021/11374.shtml) but my fans only show one colour which i can only change in bios but only in colours (green, blue, light blue, pink, red and white). Are there any fikses so i can have multy colours on them?

No. The mobo header you have (4-pin plain RGB, 12 VDC) can send out signals ONLY for what that type of light system can do. Plain RGB lights can do ONE colour for all lights in one device at any moment, but can change to a different colour at a later time. It can NOT create a display with many colours all at once in one fan. When you connect many fans' lights to one signal source, they all do the same thing together. The converter you have CAN convert the signals from that mobo header into a different set of signals safe for a 3-pin ARGB lighting system to use, but only that - it cannot make up signals for more complex displays. So, although your fans' lights could do complex displays if fed the complex signals from a true ARGB header, they will never get such signals from this source.

Now, you say, "which i can only change in bios". That SEEMS to indicate that you manually set the light colours in BIOS Setup and then they never change as you work. THAT you CAN change, if that really is what you are getting. The CD (or whatever) that came with your mobo should have a utility called RGB Fusion. You load and run that to program how the lighting display can change constantly while you are working. Are you using that?
