Do both rgb headers work for either cooler master or Corsair?

One is a 12v and the other is 5v. 

 

The manual should tell you which port to use.

Gigabyte - download the maunal and look at it. There are 2 12v RGB ports LED_C1 & LED_C2, LED_C2 is by the ram. Read page 14 and note "Connect your RGB LED strip to the header. The power pin (markedwith a triangle on the plug) of the LED strip must be connected to Pin 1 (12V) of this header. Incorrect connection may lead to the damage of the LED strip."
Corsair - look at the quick start guide that would have come with your case, page 9. RGB splitter plugs into the 12v port, which on this board marked LED_C1 or LED_C2
Masterliquid -  Manual, image 12 shows the RGB splitter (part M) plugs into the 12v port, which is LED_C1 or LED_C2.
Your choice to which splitter plugs in where.
D_LED1 & D_LED2 (D_LED2 is next to LED_C2) are for 5v, yours are not 5v.
