The 3 and 4 pin ones are from the Rog ryuo 240.

Male fan connector. You'll see similar connectors on your motherboard. You can choose to either run the fans from the cooler, or from the motherboard.

Female RGB connector. This connects to your motherboards RGB connector (if present). Make sure that voltage matches on the board and the cooler. Voltage is usually 5V or 12V.

 

Usually the gender is omitted. And they're probably both under the wider Molex family as it is a brand name. But we'll keep things simple for now.

Hello everyone,

 

Thank you for stopping by, I have a question, where do I connect these cables to?, I have a gigabyte z170 gaming 5 Mobo, corsair RM750 PSU.

The case: Kolink Horizon RGB

 

Basically don't have a molex cable on my PSU and for that I need an adapter, but what about the other 3 cables, I don't know their names nor what adapter or where do I plug these in, please help and thank you in advance.

One is RGB, two are fan leads you can plug fans into.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Thank you, so basically I connect the fans directly with the 4 pins so they are working, those 2 are extra and I thought maybe it's for the OLED display as that one is not on.

 

For the RGB one, I don't think my Mobo has one, do you know how it should look like?

You'll need to power the pump. This is usually done with the molex connector. But yes, plug the fans into the fan connectors and they'll work.

 

The OLED display is powered by a USB lead I think. That's what I'm reading in the manual anyway. Unless ASUS updated the coolers. Double check what you've got anyway.

 

If you've got the manual on hand this is laid out better than I can explain it.

The motherboard header should look like this (open the spoiler):

Difference between 5V and 12V headers:

Oh sweet, now I know where to connect these cables!

The molex one is for the case fans, need to get a 6pin to molex adator.

 

This: cd203c33bfe303b4c5a3a3adfb1bc233.png , I'm still not sure where to put these on the motherboard

 

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-Z170MX-Gaming-5-rev-10#ov  > this is my mobo, does it have these connectors or am I screwed, I tried looking everywhere but I cannot find anything.

You're motherboard wouldn't have them since the craze didn't kick in until much later.

 

Fairly sure NZXT have a lighting controller called the HUE 2 that can be used.

Hmm, and there is no other way to get this working without the HUE 2? :/

The best thing would probably be to get new case fans right?
