My motherboard hasn't got a argb header so i brought the thermalright fan and rgb hub without realising that I will need a argb header to be able to use the lighting on my fans so i am trying to figure out what i can do to get them working.

 

using 6 thermalright tl-s12 fans but will be getting some more soon as at the moment i am mismatching fans 

 

mbo is asus prime a520m-k 

 

p.s I'm uk based

Most likely you need an RGB hub that connects to the motherboard through USB2, at least if you want to be able to control the lighting through software.

Most likely you will need to use the hub's manufacturer software though, unless there is a universal one out there.

 

No idea if the software gonna play nice with your fans
