My MSI B650 board has 3A 12v RGB headers (as well as 5v ARGB gen 2 headers).


Can anyone confirm that the 12v RGB header is compatible with regular 12v RGB 5050 strip lights (the ones sold in 3-50 ft rolls marketed for home lighting ) ie are the 12v RGB strip lights sold for computers lighting any different than the ones for home lighting?


(They are all 12v SMD 5050, 16ft rolls run on 2amp psu's, I assume it's safe to plug into the Mobo but would feel better if someone else can say for sure that it won't damage the board)
