I’ve had an NZXT BLD computer for 2 years now and I started noticing my case lights are going bland. I have LEDs on my ram and motherboard and they look correct.

I have tried going through each color in turn in CAM and the blues are a tad dark.

A quick web search seems to indicate my cooler might be going bad but that doesn’t make sense because ALL of the NZXT lights are doing this. I think it might be the case controller. Does this make sense?

I have tried removing other RGB apps to see if anything was interfering but no change was observed.

    LEDs can outlast a human life. And it doesn’t need to be an expensive LED.

    What usually dies is the driving circuitry, but that’s really unexpected from a good brand. Looks like this one is cheaping out and overdriving their LEDs without the heat dissipation or quality control to handle it.
