Do you need an Asus motherboard to control the RGB on an Asus strix graphics card?

I'm considering my options for graphics cards for my new PC build and I found a GTX 1070 that I liked, the Asus Strix model. But I'm not sure if the RGB can be controlled by the Asrock Taichi X370 motherboard that I plan to get. If I wanted to control the RGB lights on the Asus card, do I also have to buy an Asus motherboard that has Asus Aura Sync or can the Asrock motherboard configure the RGB on the card?

 

Also, if the RGB cannot be controlled by the Asrock board, will the graphics card stay on some kind of default rainbow mode?


Here's links to the stuff I mentioned for reference:
