Hi everyone,
Until yesterday I've been using the Corsair 500R for my case. Last night I moved everything into my new Air 540.
I got the idea to pull the 2 front intake fans from the 500R and use them in push/pull for my rad and also to light up the inside of the case, now that I have this huge window. The 2 fans were perfectly bright when they were in the 500R. But now that they are in the Air 540 they are much MUCH dimmer, almost no light at all.
They are connected to the mobo headers as they have no molex connection from the factory. Would this have any effect on the brightness of the LED? On the 500R there is a molex connection for the fan controller, would that have been delivering more power to the fans and LEDs? That's the only conclusion I've been able to draw so far.
If this is the problem, what can I do to resolve it or should I just buy new fans?
