Hey guys, I just got this cheap rgb fan set.  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MMP281J/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

After installing all of the fans and the rgb strips I noticed that the rgb header has a connection that neither my power supply or motherboard have, after doing some research it appears to be a molex connection.
 

    could I get an adapter for this to plug into my psu? If so would this one work?

Or would I have to find something that connects to my motherboard?

I have a msi x470 gaming plus max motherboard with a jrgb connection on it. 

I appreciate any help!

SATA to Molex should do the trick. The one in your link converts molex to EPS and may not work as you'd like it to.

 

 

Best of luck!
