Motherboard and RGB cooler compatibility

Your potato

I know this is probably a dumb question, but I need to know if my motherboard is compatible with an RGB cooler I'm considering to buy. The motherboard I have is the MSI B360 Gaming Pro Carbon. It has free 4-pins system connectors, as well as a 5050 RGB LED strip connector12V connector (JRGB1) and a WS2812B Individually Addressable RGB LED strip 5V connector (JRAINBOW1). I don't know if any of this is of any relevance, just copying from the manual. The fan I'm considering to buy is the Cooler Master MasterFan SF120R ARGB (Link: https://www.coolermaster.com/catalog/coolers/case-fan/masterfan-sf120r-argb/). My question is: are both components compatible without any extra cables and if so, which connector can I plug it in to?

 

A massive thanks in advance to the answer!

ARGB fan should use the 3pin 5V connector.

I only see your reply if you @ me.

So it should just work out of the box?
