Can I use RGB fans with this motherboard ?

OK so your motherboard only has a RGB 12V header for strips and then a few SYS_FAN headers for fans. The RGB fans will spin on these headers but changing the lighting effects will not work unless:

a) You buy fans that already the fan controller built in like Thermaltake Riing that have a seperate controller to manage the RGB.
b) Get a fan controller and connect the fans to that and use it to manage the RGB.

Any RGB fans, really, probably some on the lower price list of my local shops. I've noticed the header for LED Strips, but not sure if the 2 SYS_FANs would allow the RGB fans to work properly (cause I've seen on some higher end motherboards that they have "RGB_Header" where you can connect colorful fans, while mine does not have anything like that).

The first one appears to have a RGB controller so it should work. I don't know about the 2nd one though as the eBay page lacks information and I can't find into on them. They look pretty basic but would work.
