I assemble my new PC and everything functions perfectly, but once I power it down I notice the case fan (4*fan) continues to operate. To fix this, I removed the 3pin ARGB (D_led1) from the motherboard where I originally installed the fan, which causes the fan to shut off when I turn off the system. However, it still runs manually with a new color every five seconds. Is there a solution to stop it when I power down? The power supply also provides the fan directly (photo 2), and there are only two cables: one 3pin ARGB cable (photo 3). One cable is male and the other female (as shown in photo 4). Fan A has a male connector, while Fan B has a female one. I merged the 3pin ARGB cable from my copy of the fan with the case fan, just like in photo 2—everything works fine now.

Mixing RGB and ARGB – correct?
The images are too close and slightly blurry.
The last picture doesn’t show up at all ("undefined").
Please try taking the photos again and sharing them for better clarity.
How did you remove the pins from the motherboard? Or are the "merges" involved?
Make sure all connections were made according to the relevant component documentation: fans, case, motherboard, etc.
Each pin must match exactly.
I hope there’s only a minor misconnection and nothing was damaged.

thank you for your reply. i made the changes and added more images as well as clarified the details. the issue was resolved by removing the cable, not the pin— the motherboard and case are working properly. just set the fan to auto mode.

There is no necessity to generate additional entries about the fan issues. Duplicate submissions will be removed.

Take fresh images where needed and share them again via imgur.
Add a brief note on what each photo displays.
Include a simple diagram illustrating the fan connections.
