Gigabyte ARGB B850 Elite

Post Published:


Yesterday was my first day with my newly built pc, and I was struggling with the ARGB

Of course I searched online and yes, did find others talking about it.

ARGB headers on the board, only one is single, the other two out of three headers, are linked together.

So you have RGB Fusion.

Top LEFT there is one header

Bottom Right there are three

There’s also another area to color which is built into the board, just some ambient light under the heatsync nvme area. This is single.

I could always work with my cooler fan rgb in RGB Fusion. I couldn’t understand exactly what it was going on over all. I could hold down the button on the case for a bit and something changed. It didn’t connect until I found someone talking about the cyan color is all that happened when trying to get the motherboard to take over ARGB.

Eventually my thoughts led me to testing other things since I too could get that cyan color after holding button about 5 seconds. Where did the color come from?

Regardless of that, I found that the middle of the three on the bottom was where my front and back fans were controlled.

Also now I can influence all of them at the same time when not clicking one of the spots when making mode or color changes.

On my older computer RGB Fusion is different. I can do the whole computer colors on a previous screen.

Clicking that would bring me to all the fans and light to do.

I mostly have ever only tried to make everything the same color. I don’t have extra LED strips or anything such to make it worthwhile for separate colors.

I just wish the case power and color switcher buttons could be controlled, they are just WHITE. Will have to devise a cover for those. White lights bother me in general and kill me when I have a migraine.
