is it alright if i plug in a 3 pin 5v argb cord into a addr_led1 header?

[Jman07]

hi i’m working on my pc and the motherboard im using is an asrock x570m pro4 and it has a header for “addr_led1”. is that the same as argb because i want to plug in my argb case fan into it but i don’t want to fry anything. the addr_led1 header has the same pin pattern as the argb cord from the fan so it is possible but i don’t know if it’ll work the way i want it to. will this work?

Yes it should

 

Page 57 of your motherboard's manual :

ARGB = Addressable RGB

RGB strips , fans, whatever uses LED (Light Emitting Diode).

So Asrock called the header Addressable LED, which in essence Addressable Light Emitting Diode instead of Addressable RGB (Red Green Blue)

Do not plug 3 pin aRGB into a 4 pin RGB. The manual labels the pins wins. I can't remember who did a video of this, but it some permanent damage.

If it's marked addressable LED and has 3 pins with a gap, that is the correct one. 

As @alyensaid, if it has 4 pins, don't try.
