I got bored of blue RGB so its all now Yellow

If you see any other colour, I suggest an eye test

Those are all the same colour to me. I can't help it if camera sees differently
Only yellow it sees is at bottom of the case, which is funny as I can't see that as well with glass on - its off in shot.

Just noticed that the top fan on AIO - the one I replaced a few weeks ago - is a slightly brighter yellow that the two below it, which is odd as they all on the same controller, and use same RGB software. I can only think they have a different revision to the two that came with AIO.

Its actually noticeable in the photo above, the white looks cleaner on top fan? right word? Fans were all cleaned about 3 weeks ago so that shouldn't be reason.

I plan on replacing them in about 3 weeks anyway. Remove the missmatch. Make them quieter as well.

so swapped rgb to green and now the color difference is less obvious, so its only certain colours/shades that make it stand out. The less bright ones probably hide it better.

Fans with led screens in hubs... I can understand...

Where would you put these

Also, too many in one case will start to look really bad... even if they show out front of glass case.

And fans need to actually be good enough to use... they aren't just for looks... though its getting hard to tell. I wouldn't use these simply as you can get better without killing cooling for looks

One advantage to have wireless KB & Mouse is if/when I plug PC in after its been unplugged, my keyboard rgb doesn't auto turn on. My Corsair KB used to do that all the time. Sure, if I bump kb when PC is off, it turns on but I can flick switch on back of KB off and it turns off.

think I order new fans for PC this weekend.

just in case we need more PWM cable length. Where the hub goes is something I still not sure about.

Probably get one of these at same time
