One thing that is curious, is that the DC fan that could not be controlled before was connected the "CPU OPT" header, which is the header I now have the RGB fans connected to. So I wonder if the lack of speed control has something to do with that particular fan header.

ok, after a bit fiddling around I got a bit of control back. The 3 front fans are connected to the two headers at the bottom of the motherboard with third one connected to the the chassis fan header next to the AIO fan header. The RGB fans are now connected to the "CPU OPT" header at the top of...

Thank you so much, now I know where I went wrong with the RGB fans. Out of interest this is what fan control shows me at the moment. I am sure fans 1, 5, 6 are the RGB ones, and fan 7 is the one DC fan that for some reason cannot be controlled, even though it shows speed:

Not that I think it makes much difference, the the case came 2 of these: https://www.corsair.com/uk/en/p/pc-components-accessories/cc-8900456/4000d-4000d-airflow-120mm-3-pin-fan-black-1200-rpm-cc-8900456 I bought one extra and moved them to the front.

So, I am probably being a complete idiot here. But according to the diagram above, do I need to have these connected to the 3-pin RGB header AND the 4-pin cpu fan header? Because I only have them connected to the RGB header and SATA for power (the RGB stripes are also in the same connection)

it's a Corsair 4000D Airflow. I would think that the 3 RGB fans that are daisy-chained together would be controlled as 1 entity, right? Although I cant control them at all via fan control. What really surprises me is that 1 of the 3 simple chassis fan that I have on the front of the case cannot...

That is very helpful - Thank you. Turns out only the CPU fan and 2 chassis fans are controllable, but better than nothing.

In my new build, I have a ROG STRIX B550-F Gaming motherboard with 3x Deepcool FC120 RGB fans and 3x regular Corsair chassis fans. I thought I'd have full control of the fans in Armoury Crate, but unfortunately that's not the case. For instance, if I select Silent Mode, I’d expect at least some...
