    last night i installed the kit of 32GB DDR4 RAM that damien gave me. after putting my PC back together + plugging everything in again, the LEDs in the case fans turned back on even though i have the LEDs disabled in the BIOS ?_? and openRGB hasn't detected anything even though i installed the udev rules

    i didn't feel like digging into it last night, because i had already spent a stupid amount of time trying to diagnose a problem that was easily fixed in the end. (don't worry about it. seriously.)

    RGB shit is such a headache though. really making me rethink my next case choice lmfao

    after a lot of troubleshooting and being unable to turn off the case fan lights: literally might just be easier to buy a pack of inexpensive case fans without LEDs. this is so stupid lmfaooooooo

    @platinumtulip I switched to a windowless case partly for this reason. RGB feels like a fun novelty but ultimately a bit pointless and distracting

    @platinumtulip For what it's worth, I ended up with the most basic Be Quiet case... partly because it's got space for disc drives. It perhaps doesn't match your usual aesthetic, but functionally it's pretty good.

    @platinumtulip Oh! I had a similar problem, and had to add an option to my boot args, I believe it was acpi_enforce_resources=lax. In my case it was to get my RAM LEDs to show up in OpenRGB, but maybe it could help you too?
