Hello there,
I am now on my second build and currently running into some issues connecting the peripherals.
I am using the tower and fans from my previous build (as they have some fancy LED), however, have a hard time connecting them to the new mainboard (ASUS Maximus XI Hero), as the case fan control comes with a 4pin female, whereas the mainboard only has 5pin EXT Fan male.
It's possible to put the 4pin female on the 5pin male, while leaving one pin blank, but fans won't run and the software controlling the LED won't recognize them.
I found an adapter online, does anyone know if this will work?

Any help is much appreciated.
