RGB Header on Asus Prime B450-Plus

[Pavu]

I didn't really know where to post this, since it's a compatibility issue between my case and mobo.

 

So I built my first PC recently, and I went with the Phanteks P350x case since it got some great reviews and looks absolutely amazing. Thing is, the RGB on the case relies on a 3-pin connector (one of the holes in the middle is blocked out, so there's absolutely no way to plug it in a 4-pin header), but the B450-Plus has a 4 pin RGB header. Where can I find an adapter for this? I found this: https://www.amazon.com/Phanteks-Adapter-Specified-Control-PH-CB_RGB4P/dp/B01BZIBJAK/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=3+pin+to+4+pin+rgb+adapter&qid=1564830323&s=gateway&sr=8-3#customerReviews on Amazon, but it still looks like it's got a 4 pin header.

They are different control protocols so they will not work with each other. Deep cool has an adapter of sorts but you will lack the fine control of individual LED’s for the 3 pin addressable lights.

Okay, I just did some more digging and found out that there's apparently a SATA power connector on the case that I could just plug into the PSU to get regular RGB lighting. Just to be clear, this would be basically the same thing as using an adapter since neither would allow for addressable LED control, right?

if you want to control that 5v argb with a 4pin 12v mb header the link w-l will work. the deepcool adapter.
