Hi, a while back I had uninstalled the whole Armoury Crate suite as I found it to be clunky and unreliable. However, managing the built-in LEDs on the motherboard proved bothersome without AURA, so I reinstalled it a few weeks ago. It worked without issue until a few days when Fan Xpert 4 was updated (I think it was yesterday, 10th of November, according to the update center).

As usual, I lost my configuration file, which is in itself infuriating, so I ran the calibration tool to detect the fans range before setting up the curves as they were before.

As of now, a quick search on various marketplaces suggest that one can buy paper singles for about $60-70. Not that I would invest in this deck right now as it seems to be a thing of the past now that mono-red
