3 Pin RGB Cable to 4 Pin Header

[JoeyHQ]

I just bought an aio and i dont ever do much with rgb. my motherboard only have a 4 pin RGB header but the aio has a 3 pin. i was just wondering if they make a good adapter for that?

what is your motherboard? there are adapters for everything, its just a matter of finding the right one. there should be a 4 pin header on your board for the AIO because most do come with it. mine says CPU fan and CPU pump one is a 3 pin the other is a 4 pin. take a closer look at your board. its very hard to see

the real question is why do you? can you tell that what this person has will be able to do anything that you tell them without some more info? some motherboards as you know can not or will not support what someone wants to do but you just make a new topic on the subject. my motherboard as i said has a 3 pin and 4 pin headers for the fans and radiator pumps if i wanted to water cool my system. if joeyHQ' motherboard has this too as his shouldm then there is no need to waste money buying something they dont need. so i was hoping he would have given the name of his board so i could look up and pic and give him the info he was looking for but no response. so dont try and jump down my throat because you want to give him a direct answer than might now work. this forum is for helping people of all skill levels with a problem and helping those and each other with few skills to become better.

of course not but read the message. they are saying the AIO only has a 3 pin connector but their motherboard only has a 4 pin so they were looking for an adapter. i am telling them to look closer at their motherboard as they may have missed what they needed so they dont have to spend money. and 2000+ comments doesnt make you right. it just means you talk more and have been on her longer. look at mine almost 500 in 1 year. i would have 4x as many as yours if i was on here as long as you have been.

There's no point in repeating a statement.

If it was already said, no need to say it again if it's a standalone post.

Plus this question gets asked a lot so it's a lot easier to just link a post that already has the answer.

i had an old thread linked before that but i thought of just making my own as it gets asked a billion times.  easier to read and find the info instead of going thow like 20 pages of posts.
