Hey Guys

MSI Mobo x570 gaming plus
Windows 11
3 x iCUE SP120 RGB ELITE Performance 120mm PWM Fan & Lighting Node CORE
Corsair vengeance rgb ram x 2

1 fan and the 2 ram sticks are fine.

Recently 2 of the fans on the water cooler radiator started misbehaving, the lighting is mostly red and green, no effects or software can make them function properly, I tried iCue software and now SignalRGB.

The working fan is connected to 'sys fan 1 header' and node core.

The 2 dodgy fans are connected to 'cpu fan 1 header' via a splitter and to the node core.
 
step one is normally reset the software and make sure the sodding windows RGB setting is turned off.
"windows dynamic lighting"

it could just be the fans have gone bad due to the heat if the rad gets hot. obviously switch the ports on the node and see if the fans work or continue to have RGB problems

Hi mate many thanks for your reply, the software was a fresh install anyways, i also disabled windows dynamic lihting thanks for the heads up ;)

It turns out all my fans are ok as plugging them into port 1 of the node core was all good, it looks like port 3 is dodgy, im using port 1 and 2 now. I undertand the rules about the port order of the node core, is there a way to connect the 3rd fan to goet it performing properly again. many thanks?
 
my limited understand of the node is you can go into the software and set a fan number as you can have upto 3 or 6(not 100%) fan pre port

i would assume youtube will help you on that in no time,
