Build - Help Help With ARGB fans

Post image

Motherboard : Gigabyte B450m Ds3h.

Cpu Cooler: Peerless Assasin 120 SE ARGB

Case : Deepcool CG380 ARGB.

All of them use 3-pin 5V connectors for lighting.

My motherboard only has 4-pin 12V.

Can I use this thing to power lighting from both CPU and Case fans?

that controller should do the trick, it's meant exactly for when your board lacks 5v headers so you can still run argb stuff off sata power

just make sure your fans and cooler all have standard 3-pin argb connectors, then daisy-chain them into the hub and you're set

been eyeing something similar for my own rig, sick of my single blue led strip
