Interesting. I did ask the guys from BeQuiet using the comment section of their presentation video.

They immediately said it's possible, but I still had my doubts, because I figured that maybe those don't work like standard RGB strips.

Leaving the connector aside, do the strips have the same LEDs for all colors, or does each color come from a separate LED?

(and don't worry, your nails are fine).

 

 

all the LEDs can be any of the given colors, and the set will be the same color. If you have both strips connected they will also be the same color (since it's all being controlled from the same controller).

If anyone of you owns a Dark Base Pro 900, I'd appreciate some info on it's two LED strips?

From what I've seen in the tons of reviews, when connected to the controller, they can switch between 5 colors and the off state.

Can they actually be connected to the motherboard or a separate controller to produce different colors or color combinations?

I'm not sure what kind of connector is it, but it's definitely not the current standard for RGB strips. It won't fit things like asus AURA and the like. Here's a picture in case you or someone else can identify it: (ignore my dirty nails. I was working on my bike today)
