New ARC a750 no RGB

[evil Kelly]

I purchased an Intel ARC a750 thinking it would have amazing pretty lights
but when I Installed the card the only lighting is the logo on the top edge of the card {wnite LED}
the fans and card don't light up, The card did not come with the USB2 header to card cable in the box at all
I tried to install the RGB software but it says no card found, Yje system is new, The card is new, I have the latest AMD Drivers installed as
I was using the CPU graphics until my card arrived. Vard was installed after checking resizable bar and installed with current latest intel drivers

Please help. no pretty lights/no cable in box, what do?

Does it have the little connector on the top edge for the RGB control? i think only the 770 has RGB control
While both of these cards look identical, a closer look at the A770’s power connector area reveals a covered header that an included cable for RGB control can be plugged into (the other end into a USB 2.0 header on the motherboard). Users will be able to tap into the lighting configuration via Cooler Master software.

I`m not sure. I went looking after I installed the card and did some youtube and review research, I do know the card is new as it came in an untampered with blue box as well as an untampered plain cardboard with black foam packing it didn't elevate the blue box upon opening the cardboard box nor did it have the interior printed like the review samples unboxed by youtuners, the place under the card in the blue box just had a foam insert and not the box with RGB cable

"The A750 LE looks nearly identical to the Arc A770 LE, except without all the RGB lighting. Some people might miss those lights, though the Intel Arc logo on top of the card still adds a white glow to your PC."

Got a link to the model you bought? It would be easier to help you that way.

Ever heard of a chap called Ben Hunt-Davis? British Olympic rower at the Sydney Olympics in the year 2000. Britain were not expected to do wel, by Ben decided his team were going to stand on the podium and for the year leading up to the olympics they trained and trained, and they upgraded all their equipment, even their outfits with one question lionked to every decision made- `Will it make the boat go faster?` If the answer was no then they didne waste their time on it. They won the gold.

If it doesnt make the computer go faster, dont waste your time on it.

That is your opinion, which doesn't help the OP with their question in any way. They also say that an opinion is like a butthole. Everybody has one, but no one cares. (says someone who agrees that RGB is useless)

As far as I know, the A750 doesn't have RGB, only the A770 does.

Thankyou for all of the help, I checked the card and it doesn't have the connector and is a no RGB part.

True, but i was trying to let the OP down gently... they appear to have purchased a non RGB variant and are likley dissapointed with their purchase. I was just pointing out that the card will still do the job requested of it.

Appreciated. I'm not super concerned. This was the only part in my new build I thought would have RGB lights and I did kinda have glowy purple pictures in my head of the build. The card and CPU are currently very heavily limited by power config until my new PSU arrives and I can remove the limits which will no doubt require the purchase of glowy purple fans for extra cooling.

Sidenote, Thanks for the inspiring message AUSwolf.

I had my sights on the arctic P12 max fans 2x120, 1x80, are any of the RGB fans serious enough to push air through a classic Lian-Li case?
I want 2 real bearings and a 4 pin pwm controlled 3000-ish RPM ceiling.

To Confirm the A750 LE does not have the RGB bar or Fan rings of the A770LE. Instead it just had a silver accent bar around the end and the White LED ARC Logo.
