Armoury Crate and RGB

Hello!

I have had my PC for a few months now and with a few hiccups I got everything running in the right order.
Recently my Armoury Crate has stopped functioning, not entirely, but it won't let me change things such as RGB colour, and keepts it to a standard red. Only thing I can control is my logitech mouse, that I control through Windows' dynamic lighting (I have attempted to turn that off and let Aura do the heavy lifting, no change)

My fans and CPU cooler rgbs just keep on being red, I'm not sure what to do. Only recently did I learn that Armoury Crate can cause problems, and originally thought it was a necessary program of sorts. Armoury Crate does let me pick different colours etc. with no error message, it just won't change anything about the actual fans. Is there some solution to this? Its not a thing that affects the usage of my PC, but just sucks, as I was excited with how much I could edit the colours based on my everchanging taste.

Thanks for the help, heres some specs for the RGB parts:

Processor Cooling:
PCS FrostFlow 100 ARGB V3 Series High Performance CPU Cooler

Fans Included with case:
Front: 3 x 120mm ARGB PWM Fans
Rear: 1 x 120mm Black case fan

Just run Prime95 for 10 minutes, have HWMonitor open with CPU expanded.

Run the test and after 10 minutes take a screenshot of HWMonitor readings and post that WHILE PRIME95 is still running and post the screenshot

Obviously have everything else closed while you're running tests

So yes, that looks fine.

I would properly uninstall armory crate (need to use the official uninstaller
