If everything works, just tuck it into the case and ignore it.

From the single picture I'd hazard a guess it's the RGB connector and it's supposed to connect to an RGB header, however I have no clue if it needs 5v RGB or 12v RGB header so don't just plug it into the first thing that says RGB, check the fans or whatever is supposed to be RGB and confirm.

Looks like the Coolermaster RGB splitter cable: https://www.coolermaster.com/catalog/coolers/rgb-accessories/1-to-3-rgb-splitter-cable/

Any Coolermaster RGB you can't control perhaps?

 

Are all the fans spinning? Because I believe they get power from somewhere else, so it really doesn't matter (except for RGB control)
