Hello,



Long time reader here. So i bought new pc case:



SILENTIUMPC Armis AR5X TG RGB



and i'm having trouble with the fans of the case ( 3 at the front , 1 at the back ) they don't spin ir glow with rgb what so ever,my other listed parts of pc are:

PHOTOS CAN BE FOUND HERE - View: https://imgur.com/a/UOngXio


i5-8400 cpu.

gtx msi 1080 gaming x

Kingston HyperX FURY 16GB 3200MHz DDR4

PSU Corsair TX750M 80 gold plus.

MSI Z370 PC PRO mobo



I will add few screenshots ,am i missing something with these two cables ? They were from RGB plate of the back of the case ( with alot of cables included in it / plugged )



First photo cable goes into SYS_FAN4 JRGB1 ( 2st photo ) , and the second cable goes to SYS_FAN 1.2.3, 4 any of it right ( 4rd photo ) ? To power them up, or i'm missing something ? First photo cables are just from PSU , do i need them to power up the fans ? This is really confusing...
 
Solution
1) You can use the sync pro controller comes with case to power all the fans. Check the manual from SILENTIUMPC site https://www.silentiumpc.com/en/product/armis-ar5x-tg-rgb/
Power the controller with sata power cable ( I think you don't use it to power the controller so that the fans don't get power), connect the fans into the controller with RGB connector and the 4-pin fan connector too. You may need to buy other parts, like RGB-302 from SILENTIUMPC , because I don't read all carefully yet.

2) You can connect the fans into the MB RGB header with the Y splitter ( plug adapter), and the 4pin fan header too.
MB RGB header, check the MB manual page 37. Keep in mind, the MB RGB header can provide up to 3Amp.
RGB Y splitter...
