Hello,

 

I have an MSI X99S Gaming 7 motherboard and a Corsair Spec Delta RGB case. I am trying to utilize my RGB fans. I bought the Corsair Commander Pro for fan control and what not.

 

Here is my issue:

The RGB case fans tie together into a JST connector that also has a JRGB adapter. However, my motherboard does not have a JRGB header anywhere on it. 

 

I have spent hours trying to troubleshoot all of this and figure out how to control my RGB lighting. Thought the Corsair RGB hub would be a solution; but, after looking at the connections, it doesn't appear to help in my case. 

 

Can anyone please help me?

Your board is too old to have a RGB header on it. Buy a cheap controller from Amazon.

I just ordered it!

 

The MOBO was given to me for free and I just built a PC around it. Maybe it wasn't the best idea, but I already had so many other parts. 

 

Anyways, thank you for your help! 

 

P.S.

I love your user icon.
