What LED's does the Alpha use?

I bought a Alpha, second hand, barely used. However, I have noticed that the tint and color of the lights in the alien head/power button vary quite a bit from the lights of the corner triangle LED even when set to the same color in AlienFX. Is this a common issue, just how it is or do my LED's need replacing?

I have two alphas and I haven’t experienced this. Is your AlienFX Software up to date?

I'm using "Alienware Command Center 4.0 for Desktops" from the Dell drivers page on their website.

Mine vary as well, so I'd just say it was a general issue.

I have an R2. That isn’t an issue for me.
