Question Can I plug RGB fans on my MSI B650S ?

[Akleeeh]

Hello,

It's been years since I last built a PC, I just got all my components, built everything up but I can't find where to plug the fans of my case (NZXT H6 FLOW RGB)
I've seen a video where a guy plugged it into a 5V RGB connector but I don't have any in my mb
Can you help me out please ?

Ignore videos.

Update your post to include full system hardware specs and OS information.

The key document is the User Guide/Manual for the motherboard.

However, you must also read the applicable User Guides/Manuals for the case, other fans, etc...

This motherboard?

System fan connections are presented on Page 39.

RGB related connections are presented on Pages 42 and 43.

Pay attention to all fine print and Important Notes.

However, double check everything and verify via the individual component documentation.

I can't find where to plug the fans of my case

include the make & model of all components.

your motherboard manual will have a diagram showing all headers.

for fan LEDs;
you would be looking for 4pin RGB headers for basic RGB LEDs,
3pin aRGB headers for addressable RGB LEDs.

for fan power;
4pin PWM headers,
or 3pin voltage regulated headers.

I've got all fans connected together to a 5V cables, but i don't know where I can plug it

I've got the 5V 3pin one, but I don't have the header on my motherboard :/
Is there a way to connect my fans ?

you would need to install a separate aRGB hub if it really doesn't come with any available headers.

@Ralston18 seems to imply that your motherboard user manual shows available LED options.
have you checked the noted manual pages yourself?

Ok so I found a rgb header on my mb,
but now the fans are lighting up but not spinning 😕
Did i miss something ?

have you not also provided the blades power through a proper header?

depending on the fan type:

for fan power;
4pin PWM headers,
or 3pin voltage regulated headers.

not the same as LED headers.
