You can use this cable if your power supply has the necessary connectors to connect to the Strimer Plus V2. However, the graphics card must have the 12VHPWR connector.
How do I control the ARGB lighting?
You can control the ARGB lighting using either your motherboard's software (if it supports 5V 3-pin ARGB) or the Lian Li L-Connect 3 software.
What if the cable is too long?
Plan your cable routing during installation to minimize any excess cable length. Use the included clips to secure the cable and manage any extra length.
Does this cable affect the performance of my graphics card?
No, this cable only enhances the aesthetics and does not affect the performance of your graphics card.
What kind of materials are used in the Strimer Plus V2?
The Strimer Plus V2 is constructed with UV-resistant silicon and TPE materials for durability and flexibility.
How many LEDs does the cable have?

Troubleshooting
ARGB lighting is not working.
Ensure the cable is properly connected to the graphics card and the power supply. Verify that the ARGB cable is connected to the motherboard or L-Connect 3 controller. Check the software settings for lighting configurations.
The lighting is not synchronizing with other components.
Make sure your motherboard and other ARGB devices are compatible. Ensure all devices are connected to the same control source (motherboard or controller) and that the software settings are configured correctly for synchronization.
The cable is not fitting properly.
Double-check the connector alignment and ensure it's the correct type for your graphics card. Try re-seating the connector firmly. Ensure there is enough space within your case for the cable run.
The cable is too stiff.
Carefully manage the cable routing and avoid sharp bends. Use the included clips for better cable management. If necessary, consider rearranging other components to create more space.
