i have the gigabyte 450m ds3h mobo. i recenty bought a case with a hub that has a vdg header to control the rgb. on my mobo there is just a 4 pin led_cpu header that i assume is for rgb products. is there any way to make the vdg to fit the led_cpu?

 

There are supposedly adapters...you can get off eBay, Aliexpress, etc.

4-pin ARGB uses +12v, while 3-pin ARGB is +5v.

Plugging +5v into +12v will kill things...

 

Something like this...
