I regret buying a Core X Chroma (please help)

Long time member, first time poster. My PC: Model: Lenovo yoga 730 15-IKB CPU: 8550U GPU: Intel graphics Thunderbolt: Yes (2 lanes PCIe) My story: Buy Core X Chroma plug in without a GPU to admire RGB, - select always allow TB3 x2 - synapse install when prompted play with LED's - #noregerts Install friends GTX 1650 Super to test it (my RX580 was in the mail) Install NVIDIA Drivers works flawlessly - Destiny 2 was played and much fun was had for an hour or so I don't unplug anything and I turn off my PC unplug everything and put his card back in his computer (it works fine) ***Tomorrow morning*** I start up my laptop and I stumble around trying to get the core X to recognize. eventually I find that I have to manually open the TB3 software on my computer for it to recognize correctly.
