i recently installed a swiftech h220x and the leds on the apogee xl only seem to work at high fan rpms...i used asus fan xpert 2 to tune the fans...i was wondering it there was a work around for this other than letting the fans go full tilt all the time

thanks

additional info...the water block pwm is plugged into the cpu opt as per the instructions

If you want the fans to go full speed all the time, you just disable Q-fan in the bios. It will be more loud however and if the fans are on the cpu header, the pump will also go full speed.,

i dont want the fans to go full speed all of the time but it seems like the only way the led works on the water block is if they are running at a high speed

Well since it seems the block has a wire for nothing but an led, I would just connect it to the power supply with a molex to 3 pin fan connector.

If it is not lighting at low speeds it would seem that the board is using voltage and not PWM. A pwm header should always provide 12 volts.
