I observed a slight RGB discrepancy on some fans and the GPU. While Red and Green remained unaffected, Blue appeared very faint in several fans and my GPU. On one cluster, three out of three fans showed minimal Blue visibility, while another had only one functioning. The two clusters were isolated from each other, connected only to the controller—likely due to daisy-chaining. Interestingly, my GPU also exhibited this problem. Previously, everything functioned perfectly. I attempted BIOS updates and default resets; used Asus Aura for RAM, MOBO and GPU (RAM and Mobo are fine), and L-Connect for fans. I also tried syncing fans via the motherboard, OpenRGB, and even removed Aura. Despite being new to tech, my friend who specializes in hardware was equally puzzled. Functionally, fans and GPU are working, so I’ve settled on a color scheme without Blue. The oddity is that only Blue is affected, with both GPU and one fan cluster showing reduced brightness. No connections between clusters beyond the controller, and all fans run independently. Anyone experienced with similar issues? I’ve attached some images (visibility may be limited here, but clear in person). The fan with the RED LED works at normal brightness, whereas the pure BLUE LED shows only 10-15% of its usual intensity.

I don't believe your computer is the issue since fans seem to have poor airflow now. For GPUs, I could suggest this if you have RGB Fusion enabled. If RGB Fusion isn't working with your GPU, try these steps: Verify compatibility, confirm proper connection, update drivers, and reinstall GeForce software if you're using an Nvidia GPU.

I should have mentioned that my motherboard is the Asus X570 E-Gaming. RGB Fusion is typically for Gigabyte boards, not Asus.

To resolve the ASUS ROG Strix RGB issue, follow these steps: Remove Aura and the lighting service manually from your PC, restart, and download the latest Aura version or the updated installer that includes the lighting service folder. Open BIOS, navigate to Advanced, then Onboard Devices Configuration, select LED lighting, and set it to Aura Only when the system is active and off when in sleep, hibernate, or soft off modes. Update Windows 10/11, then reinstall an older ASUS AURA version. Verify the connection between the RGB LED PCB in the shroud and the motherboard, ensuring the cable is properly seated on both sides. Reinstall the application, delete the existing Armoury Crate app, reset the LEDs via BIOS, and reconnect all RGB cables.

Another choice is to skip RGB, unplug the carp, and there will be no problems. I’ll head back to my home under the bridge.

I'm not making a joke, but I'm really struggling right now. My home is gone, and I'm just surviving on the streets. I only have a few days left to find work and support my family, or else we'll be stuck outside for a long time. It's not helping at all, just like I expected.

I was joking around and thought trolls are hiding behind a bridge... Not the shore, but I hope things improve.

Hey team, I spent a lot of time looking online and nothing seemed to fix the problem. I cleaned everything thoroughly, including fans, connectors, and used alcohol to remove any residue. The noisy fan stopped making noise completely. But this model also had issues with the blue part. I came across a Reddit thread suggesting there might have been a faulty batch of fans in the past. Let me know if anyone else is facing the same issue.
