Whether I'm on my desktop or playing a game one of my RGB Cooler Master chassis fans will go blank (rgb turns off) and the fan drops to 0 rpm. Before it even has time to come to a stop it will power back on and the color comes back. This all happens withing about a second total. The frequency it happens is usually every few minutes but less often when I'm just idling at desktop. Very annoying and starting to worry me.
This is a new issue. I've had the fans just over a year now, along with the PC itself. It was all built together. I did take apart some things to install an SSD recently but it all works fine except for this and the fan started doing this a couple weeks afterwards so I figure it can't be something I did while reassembling it. I've tried going through the BIOS and running the fan test twice but that didn't help.
My theory is that for some reason the voltage to that particular fan drops below what it can handle and it momentarily shuts off. But then why would it be happening while gaming when the fans are running at higher RPMs?
Any help would be much appreciated as I can't figure it out and I don't want it to go unsolved or have a bigger underlying issue.
