Gigabyte B550 Aorus Pro V2 Issues
I have a Gigabyte B550 Aorus Pro V2 motherboard. The motherboard has two ARGB 5v headers, one at the top and one at the bottom. The motherboard is detected but it seems to be identified as a catch all device.
OpenRGB defines three zones: D_LED1 Bottom, D_LED2 Top and Motherboard. I have four Cooler Master MasterFan MF120 Halo fans connected in series to the D_LED2 Top header. Each fan has 24 LEDs.
Initially I resized the D_LED2 Top zone to 96 (4 x 24). Although that seemed to work, any change made to the first 24 LEDs would apply to all the fans. Is this expected behavior? This is my first RGB installation so I'm not entirely sure if it's supposed to work like this. I expected to be able to control each fan independently.
Additionally making changes to the D_LED1 Bottom zone also changes the D_LED2 Top zone. Currently nothing is connected to D_LED1 Bottom but I assume that D_LED1 Botttom and D_LED2 Top should work independently?
I guess these issues may be the result of this board not having a specific entry in RGBController_GigabyteRGBFusion2USB.cpp. I could add an entry myself but I'm worried that I may brick my motherboard.
Edit
The difference between the Gigabyte B550 Aorus Pro which OpenRGB supports, and the Gigabyte B550 Aorus Pro V2 is that the V2 replaces the Thunderbolt header with a USB Type-C header. There could be other differences but that is all I could find when doing a comparison of the specs.
