Corsair 4000x case - missing lighting node core - please help

Markwalton · 12 Jul 2021 at 15:23

Hi all, went to start my first ever build today and on taking the side panel off the case I realised there is no lighting node core inside as was advertised. I’ve included a photo of the inside which I believe is just an rgb hub for the 3 included fans in the case?

I am no confused as to what I do? Without the lightning node core am I restricted in terms of what I can do? If I can just use the hub as shown in the photo, how do I set this up.

thanks all, any assistance is greatly appreciated

If the lighting node was advertised and it's not there just return it or contact the buyer

Is the item in the photo I linked the same thing as the lighting node core though?

this case comes with a lighting node core as standard. Says so on corsairs website. contact vendor and see what can be done, hopefully without having to return it
