System Details: Power supply EVGA 750 GS, Motherboard Asus TUF Gaming x570, CPU R5 5600x, Cooler NZXT Kraken 240, GPU EVGA XC3 3070, Boot drive WD_Black SN750, 1TB case NZXT H500, Windows 10. Attempted to replace cooler from BeQuiet Shadow Rock to NZXT Kraken 240. After installation it failed to activate. RGB lighting works but startup and fan control don’t respond. No fans spinning and GPU RGB stays off. Steps taken: verified connections, tested PSU, reinstalled CPU, SSD, GPU. Any further attempts? Consider reverting to the previous cooler.

I managed to power up the system successfully. The fans are connected to the motherboard, and I’m receiving the expected image output. The GPU power cord is also securely attached.

Adjust the cooler's mounting bolt for a looser fit.

No problem at all, it wasn't that challenging from the start, honestly, not sure how things might have turned out.

I also switched back to the previous cooler and checked if everything functions properly now.

I just completed the task but haven’t posted yet. I’ve been working through the issues all day without success.

I updated the system, connected it after turning off the PSU, and everything functioned as expected. Appreciate your fast responses and assistance.
