Hi, I noticed your new Antec CX800 case has some old Lian Li fans. When you power it on, the ARGB display isn't showing correctly. Could be the fans from the old case aren't communicating properly with the motherboard? Check connections and ensure all components are seated correctly.

It seems like a simple setup, but you might want to confirm if the fans are indeed 5V ARGB and connected correctly. There could be differences in the signal protocol between the fans, and the manufacturer may rely on their specific software for control. Let me know if you need further clarification.

Consider installing RGB lighting tools, as these older fans might not be included by default on a new motherboard (especially if it uses proprietary software).

The antec fans use the same connector, but the issue lies in the signal variation. These LIAN li fans seem to work only with controllers connected via a button on the original Lian Li case. Appreciate the advice!

The fans are linked via the antenna cables and the board, and the RGB lighting on the antec fans is functioning properly, indicating it's likely hardware rather than software.
