I am going to buy a gaming PC soon, and wanted to know if i can connect some RGB 5050 ledstrips to it, using the RGB header on the MoBo. the strip i want to use is 12v, 5050 LEDs.

this is the motherboard: MSI - B350 PC MATE ATX AM4
and the LEDs i want to use are the same as these: http://mylifegadgets.com/product/wentop-led-strip-lights-kit-waterproof-smd-5050-16-4-ft-5m-300leds-rgb-60ledsm-with-44key-ir-controller-and-12v-power-supply-for-kicthen-bedroom-sitting-room-and-outdoor/
 


okay, and im assuming Mystic Light is the RGB controll software from MSI? and i was planning on using the 4-pin RGB header on the motherboard, so that will make me able to controll the strip with software?

 


@urbancamper okay, one last question. the RGB strip i have, is not individually addressable, all the LEDs will have the same color. Will the lighting effects such as Breath still work? or do you need individually addressable LEDs for that?
And, i saw the list of supported mb's on MSI, and the MSI - B350 PC MATE ATX AM4 was not in there.. does this mean my motherboard is not compatible? or is it not in there for other reasons?
