no idea what to plug in

[TheJ]

so i bought a case on amazon for my new build… it came with a fan hub. i plugged in a sata, into the hub, and it works fine. however, there are two other wires: a pwm wire and an rgb wire.

 

i don’t have an rgb header on my motherboard even though they said i did,

 

and i don’t know if i should have both the pwm cable and the sata cable plugged in. 

 

motherboard: A520m - PRO (msi)

You need to plug in the sata cable to provide power to the fans. The PWM wire can be plugged into a case fan header on the motherboard to control the fans' speed. As for rgb, there are two rgb headers along the bottom of the board according to the manual, so plug the rgb cable into that

Looking at photos of the A520M-Pro online, it definitely has an rgb header. I think your motherboard is a MSI A520M-A Pro which doesn't have rgb
