[SOLVED] Can i control the rgb thing without the A-rgb header

[iamrenos]

So I'm about to build my new PC soon, and this rgb thing just hurts my brain a lot, I had absolutely no idea how this thing works. So I want to know that if I can synchronize and control the a-rgb fans through the cooler master software and without any a-rgb headers on the motherboard.
The fans : Cooler Master MF120r A-RGB 3 in 1 kit with controller
Motherboard : MSI Z390 A-PRO

What EXACT model Cooler master controller do you have ?

Most of that depends on what you have and the actual end requirements.

Read as warranted.

Easy to find other links that explain RGB and details about programming RGB.

What makes the RGB control work is of course the RGB controller. Cooler Master is making use of this controller on a lot of their new RGB products. It is quite small and has two main connections on one side as well as a microUSB connection. On the top are 4 buttons used for control.
