Can i use rgb software to control my rgb fans on a motherboard without rgb header?

[Yug35h]

i have a A320M-s2h, i'm planing to change my fan from non rgb to rgb but my motherboard does not have rgb header. I dont want to use any controller to control my rgb lights  cuz using software is lot more easier.

The effect itself may be controlled by software, but you still need something that can send the necessary control signals to the fans, so you need an rgb controller.

i have a controller and i want to use rgb software as well, is that possible

Yes, if the controller is an addressable one. It should typically come with its own software in that case.

Which one in particular are you talking about? Unless it's an addressable RGB controller, you can't control it by software. Here's an example of an addressable RGB controller:

The RGB controller is connected to the PC via USB, so that it can be programmed by software. The LEDs on the fans are then connected to the controller. The fans themselves need to support ARGB.

so the rgb controller connected to the pc via internal or external usb port, then the razer synapse 3 app will detect the rgb controller so i can program it the way i want, is it?

That's the basic idea of an addressable RGB controller, yes. But you do need a controller that supports this, its accompanying software as well as fans with ARGB (addressable RGB).

I don't know that controller, so I can't say. But I'd assume so.
