Pictures please.

 

Most likely the 4 pin is for fan Power and RPM management and the 3 pin is to plug into the RGB controller most likely, but will know for sure with pictures.

Yeah we need pics as both power and RGB can be either 3 or 4 pin.

 

One is fan power, the other is RGB.

That's an RGB connection so by process of elimination the 3 pin is for power

The 3 pin is for fan power, and the 4 pin is the RGB connector. 

 

Plug the 3 pin into your motherboard to control it via DC power and then your case likely has a built in RGB controller that the 4 pin needs to be plugged into so you can control the RGB functions and lighting.

Generally if the case is an RGB case, it likely will have a controller built in. Looking at the case design and information on Corsairs website, seems the case does NOT have a built in controller and would require you to use your motherboards RGB software.

Newer motherboards will have a white header on there that you can connect them too. What is your motherboard?

so thats a low end board and does not have any RGB headers on it. Looks like you wont be able to use the RGB function of the fans.
