Hey All,

How do you connect a non Thermaltake RGB device to a Thermaltake controller? I just recived and EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 ULTRA and it looks like it has a RGB header. I have a TT controller and I was wondering how you would connect to that?

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

does your motherboard support plugging the GPU RGB header in directly? i would run the TT RGB controll and GPU RGB to the MB seperately, then sink them in software.

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

Hey, thanks for the answer. It has two RGB headers and I need them for 13 fans, water block and two water pumps. If there is a way to connect two TT controllers to use just one header, that would work.

I just realized that the EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 ULTRA is 12v RGB and the TT controller and ASUS MOBO uses the 5v RGB header, which means I have another two 12v RGB headers, so I should be able to connect it to that. The issue now becomes, where do I buy a 4 pin RGB cable? No cable came with the GPU.
