Problem with rgb header

[zapp_134]

I needed some help with my current build:
I have a b450- f gaming mb from ROG
and a Castle 360 cooler from deepcool
the rgb header on the pump has a 5V 3 pin rgb header
while the mb has a 4 pin rgb header.
Is there any way i can use an adapter for this if so can anyone tell me which one?

No way to adapt it to work with your motherboard. You will need to get an external controller. The 4pin provides 12v while the 3 pin only uses 5v so it would kill the RGB if you tried.

There are adapters, at least one. https://www.gamerstorm.com/product/ACCESSORY/2019-03/1291_10731.shtml

Hello,

 

As others have mentioned, you can try the converter boxes out there, but you would be downgrading the ARGB in the Castle cooler to standard 12v RGB. This will limited you to single color patterns. I would use the included controller instead, or use an USB controlled ARGB controller, so you can have the full benefits of the ARGB LEDs.

i had in the past the Deepcool Rgb Convertor that @LogicalDrm wrote. Was a solid and cheap solution
