Recently built a new PC and struggling how to get my Phanteks case RGBs, and Artic Liquid Freezer iii 360 connected correctly. Could someone provide me with what cables and connections from the Mobo (b650 ROG Strix e-gaming) hooked up correctly? I'd also like some guideance on where I plug in my RGB controller cables from the Phanteks NV5 case. I'd like to have my AIO, Case RGB and my 5 other fans be controlled by the button on top of the Phanteks Case.

Also, with the AIO and 5 other fans how many should be intake/exhaust?

Much appreciated.

Is that Arctic AIO with RGB or ARGB ? As far for it's fans power I would take advantage of that MB's connectors, connect radiator fans to CPU_FAN and pump to AIO_PUMP with separate cables.

It is ARGB. I had it connected a couple fo different ways and the lights would change colors, unsure of effects but colors are changeable.

When connecting like you mentioned, do you mean to not use the single AIO PUMP connector and swap it with the cable that has 3 ends to connect to the motherboard?

Yes. use those separate cable for pump since MB has dedicated header for it.
As for ARGB, use software from MB manufacturer to control it. Asus SW is best for it.

Did exactly like you mentioned. Swapped the AIO cord to plug in all 3 cables into the motherboard. Worked like a charm! Thank you!

PS. This does not allow the RGB buttons on top of the phanteks case to control the fans RGB. There might be a way but I'm happy so thats all that matters 😛. Thanks!
