Call on all RGB guru's! Some setup advise needed

[Rinox88]

Hi all
Purchased a Metalic Neo Micro Atx case. Comes with a build in rgb controller thingamajik. Long and short. It has a 4hole(female) header pluggie + two x 4hole Phamteks led strips only plugs..

I also bought a 120mm Phanteks Halo .

The dtruggle: tricky to connect all of this as its my first time dltrying it. I have not purchased a Hub of anykind yet.
The motherboard is a Asus strix z370i. (only one onboard rgb header as far as i can see)

I do have its 3hole female header cable that converts to a male 3pin fan plug( halo is plugged in directly into it, but now what about the cases 4pin header?)

Please pm me if you have strong knowledge of Rgb. Easier via whatsapp

I really cant afford to burn stuff
Thx

Send pics of the 4pins there are different types of 4pin connectors. From the info above it seems as if the Halo is 3Pin Addressable DRGB and the motherboard is DRGB as well but the phanteks leds and case controller is just normal 4pin RGB. Bottom line you will not be able to control the case + 2 Phanteks leds through the motherboards header as they are normal RGB (4pin) and not addressable RGB (3 pin).

Just connect the 2 leds to the case RGB controller and power the controller through the builtin SATA or molex connector and you can then change the LEDs through the case RGB controls. Hope that makes sense. You are welcome to PM me for more info. Good luck.
