RGB fan question.

[Johanes]

Good day.

 

So basically i was looking for a cheap RGB 140mm fan for my PC case and found this decent priced fans... but i didnt fully read the description, so low and behold the fans are actually addressable RGB fans with separate RGB wires.

and it didn't come with a controller.

 

This is the full specification of the fans.

Bearing Type: Hydraulic Bearing
Fan Type: Chassis Fan
Air volume:
- 120: 50CFM
- 140: 85CFM
Wind speed: 500-1500 (±500) RPM
Noise: 25-29 dBA
Power:
- 120:DC 12V/0.15A/1.8W
- 140:DC 12V/0.25A/3W
Static Pressure:
- 120: 0.96 mm H2O
- 140: 1.23 mmH2O
Interface: 4Pin PWM
DRGB Interface: +5V 3Pin
Material: ABS
Color: Black
Size:
120 X 120 X 25mm/4.72 X 4.72 X 0.98"
140 X 140 X 25mm/5.51 X 5.51 X 0.98"

 

My motherboard is a Gigabyte Z370 HD3.

which as far as i can see has a 12V RGB connector

 

im looking for advice what is the best way i can make it so that i can control the fans directly from my motherboard or should i just buy a separate D-RGB controller and use the remote for it >.>

 

any reasonable advice would be appreciated.

I found the same thing, looking at the manual. 

 

Unless you have an adapter for 12V control down to 5V i.e. 4-pin to 3-pin converter???
