Ok..the conclusion is you can still uses the fans..and control fan speed in bios...

 

Because the motherboard doesn't have JRAINBOW connectors you can't control the argb lightings by software..you can still use the cooler master controller buttons to set the different lighting effects..

it's magnetic...lol..I just leave them on the psu and drive bay..the window for the living room pc is small so the cables aren't arranged..hahaha

What motherboard are you using?

Anyway..you can still connect all other cables and it'll still work..just that you can't control the fan's argb with software...I was using them in my older pc which doesn't have any header other then normal fan headers before...

You can still control the fan speed in bios..as for the colour you'll have to use the controller...
