New PC Setup – No Screen or Strobing Illumination
New PC Setup – No Screen or Strobing Illumination
Just built my first PC and this is what I have ended up with. Wires and the rest of the case aren’t organized yet due to theses issues. I attached a video that shows what’s happening. Issues from what I can tell: - Weird lighting/flickering. - No display. - Red light with “VGA” below it. IMG_0757.mov
I'm really nervous and should have listened better. This is my first big expense, so I need to practice staying calm. I've just set it up in the BIOS now. Moving forward. Sorry again.
It makes sense, and I’m not expecting my message to instantly ease your worries. As I mentioned earlier, everything is fine and we can adjust to get things working. If you locate a way to switch Onboard VGA or whatever it is called for AUTO, then your dedicated GPU should be recognized during the next boot.
I started it and am currently in the BIOS with the HDMI connected to the GPU.
Looking for solutions to the flashing RGB issue? It seems the CPU cooler is the main source, along with some case fans and side RGBs. Check the settings or firmware for the cooler and ensure it's properly connected.
It seems like a minor software hiccup in the built-in "unicorn vomit" preset might be causing the issues. There’s likely a way to download a tool that lets you control RGB settings and test with a static color. Keeping the solid color active probably confirms the glitch, while switching it back or adjusting it could reveal if the problem is resolved.
i have a simliar issue on my corsair RGB led strip, when i use a plain white or in general really bright color some LED start to freak out and breaks the LED chain at a point where if the first 3 RGB led works the rest doesn't, but if i set the color to plain RED it work fine, same if i set a moving white light i don't any issue, it's probably related to how much current get blown to the RGB to make the color i think (at least for my case i don't know much about LED sadly ) my case works as this: led strip = total of 4 led strips with 11 LED per strip all daisy chained like so: 11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 ----- 11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 ----- 11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 ----- 11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 -----> lighning node STRIP1 is the one connected directly to the lightning node if the 3rd led of the STRIP1 freaks out the only working led for some seconds or maybe minutes are 1-2-3 the rest either shut down or stay the same color even if i change it if you notice some similiar behaviour it's probably faulty RGB, in my case i don't care much because i use plain red on everything and the color is working fine since more then 4 years, however, if as i understand the AIO is completely new, i'd go for an RMA, it's probably a common RGB issue i guess. just give a try and see if you can accept the fact that some LED effects might not work if you care about LED effect the RMA is the only solution
It’s actually hard to notice unless you’re not paying close attention. In the worst case, I just have to go with it and accept that the RGB won’t function. My main worry is that the CPU pump is also lighting up on certain areas while the rest remains normal. The top sections stay steady, but the lower part flickers. I’m puzzled as to why this is happening even though all the connected fans are working perfectly. Now, if the side RGBs are on and only the fans are flashing, I’m unsure if it’s because of a loose connection or if they’re truly dead, just like you mentioned.
