Hi, your PC setup with the Corsair 280x case and RGB fans seems to be functioning correctly, but the RGB strip isn't displaying as expected. The red LEDs on the motherboard still light up, yet the strip doesn't. You've confirmed the connection, orientation, and even tried removing the iCue software without success. It might not be related to MSI Gaming app interference. Consider checking the strip's power source or contacting Corsair support for further assistance.

Corsair doesn't control any MB LEDs directly; you need the specific software for that. The Corsair uses its own controller and tools, so it's a bit confusing. I believe I understand now—your RGB strip connects to one of Corsair's ports, the fans go to a fan hub, and the hub connects to a node port where the PC USB is plugged in.

Thank you for your feedback. The strip you have is a standard 4-pin RGB, not a Corsair model. Are there any converters available for it?

4-pin connectors are common for RGB devices, while 3-pin is typical for ARGB. Corsair won’t work with RGB, so you’ll need the correct type. The connector here is usually a standard 3-pin ARGB.
