I have 6 rgb fans and my case has a included fan hub. can i just plug my two聽PW TOOLS Addressable RGB Power Extension Cables (like the lianli strimmer cables but cheaper) in the fan hub or do i have to buy a controller just for these 2 cables hub?

I know that RGB doesn't make my PC 10 times faster...but at least 2 times

Depends on if it's wired to the open standard or proprietary. Brand, model and photos please.聽

I've been using computers since around 1978, started learning programming in 1980 on Apple IIs, started learning about hardware in 1990, ran a BBS from 1990-95, built my first Windows PC around 2000, taught myself malware removal starting in 2005 (also learned on Bleeping Computer), learned web dev starting in 2017, and I think I can fill a thimble with all that knowledge. 馃槈 I'm not an expert, which is why I keep investigating the answers that others give to try and improve my knowledge, so feel free to double-check the advice I give.

Those are designed to connect to your PSU. It says that there is an ARGB extension cable but they don't explain it that I can see.聽

Also, the pictures show the connectors of the device but not how or where it gets connected.聽

and do i need extra cables for connection?

Those links don't provide enough info and I've never used that product. Can you find more detailed info from the manufacturer or contact them?
