The AIO CPU cooler and case fans are malfunctioning unexpectedly.
The AIO CPU cooler and case fans are malfunctioning unexpectedly.
As the title suggests, my computer has been shutting off its case fans and their RGB lights at the same time. At the same time, the AIO CPU cooler also stops spinning, and the light around the CPU goes off. I’ve confirmed it’s not cooling my CPU anymore because the temperatures are too high. I discovered a simple solution: put the computer into sleep mode, then press anything and everything resumes. It’s quite unusual. Sometimes the RGB controller also fails to work (I don’t know if this is connected). Personally, I think there could be just one of three causes: 1) Motherboard failure, 2) Power supply issue, or 3) a problem with the Fan Hub. You all are much smarter than me—please share your thoughts!
I dont use any software. After plugging all the fans into the header and making sure it has power I just use the remote and it does everything for me. Here's the amazon link for the header.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
Motherboard: Z270 killer SLI
What BIOS version do you have installed?
2. Power supply unit is failing.
You didn't specify the model and brand of your PSU. Please add the age as well.
3. Your fan hub seems to be causing problems.
Are you using an aftermarket fan hub or one that's included with your case? I don't see a fan hub included with your AIO;

It would be helpful to know the make and model of your case as well, especially if you're using the bundled fan hub.
Moved the thread from the Components section to the Systems section.
1. P2.10
2.LEADEXIII GOLD 850W(its about 4 years old)
3. Yes its aftermarket and did not come with my case. Here is the amazon link to my case.

The operating system is 10.0.19045 Build 19045. Use CPU-Z and check the BIOS version under the mainboard section.
Yes, it's an aftermarket product and wasn't included with my case. We need to identify the aftermarket fan/ARGB hub model. I notice the case includes five 120mm ARGB fans; see the video here: https://youtu.be/X0akRXRTuqc?t=296. However, because your motherboard doesn't have an ARGB header, it's likely you're using a USB-based ARGB hub. The board I have only has one RGB header, which differs from an ARGB header.
Sorry about that. It's P2.10.
I shared the link above, but here it is:

I didn’t add more fans than what came with the case—just the AIO with two fans connected. I also updated my reply for the PSU. Thanks for your time. I could easily rule out the fan hub if I removed the CPU from it and ran it directly to the motherboard. If the fans stop and the RGB doesn’t work but the AIO still functions, it might give some clues. Just thought it’d be good to ask around before diving too deep, lmao.
It seems the ARGB hub isn't working properly. How are all your fans and AIO connected in your setup? The fans that come with the case are a special 6-pin connector that can be securely attached using a daisy chain, ending with a PWM header and an ARGB header. Do you have five fans daisy-chained to one port on the hub? If yes, then it would be wise to remove the daisy-chained connector from the hub and test whether that resolves the issue. Also, verify that the STA power connector is fully seated.
Some were and some weren't, depending on whether it reached the hub. I wanted to know how to upload a picture I just took, but it isn’t working for me. I’m pretty sure this is the issue now. It was my first time using a hub and handling everything myself, and I think I did everything right, but I suspect the hub is failing. I’ve checked all connections and everything looks solid. Reading some reviews made it seem logical. Can you recommend a good hub that would work similarly and be reliable? Maybe the link will help if I share it here: https://imgur.com/a/0uwwMX5 View: https://imgur.com/a/0uwwMX5
I hope I can learn how to upload a picture I just took, but it isn’t working for me. Place your images on a platform similar to Imgur. If you’re using Google, ensure the link is public. We won’t share personal details to view the images.
