[jessicat1261]

I want an rgb light strip,that is rainbow,not just one colour,to match my corsair fans,and hyper x ram.I found these,which are shockingly cheap,but it is 3 pin,whereas i have 4 pins,i wondered if i got rid of a certain pin would that work? The lights are these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Spectrum-L...p&qid=1617212623&sprefix=icue+,aps,172&sr=8-5

definitely will not work.

you can get a regular 4-pin RGB strip that can do different colors and patterns
you just won't be able to sync them with your other components.

you can also buy an aRGB hub like the Lighting Node Pro that will sync your fans and strips through Corsair software.

The 3pin rgb works with 5v, the 4pin rgb works with 12v

Could you link one please? I found something like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Deepcool-R...eywords=4+pin+rgb+strip&qid=1617232200&sr=8-5 but it is only one colour that you can change,instead of loads of different ones.
