Corsair LL and masterliquid ml120r rgb

[mali_luka]

Hi, im planning to connect components from the title on x370 mini itx motherboard.

Motherboard has 2 rgb headers (one 3 pin, and one 4 pin), with masterliquid i got 3 way rgb spliter in which i can connect 2 fans and pump rgb and i assume i can connect that to rgb header so i can avoid using controller hub.

Can i do the same with 2 corsair fans so i can avoid using usb2 port on motherboard or those fans have to be plugged in specifically to lighting node pro?

You cannot connect the LL fans to the motherboard.

Most motherboard RGB connectors are 12V. The Corsair RGB uses 5V LEDs. You'll blow out the LEDs.

I tought 4pin argb was 12V and 3pin was 5V

Corsair has their own connectors. They won't easily fit on a motherboard header. That said, there are some that, to their own sorrow, have actually managed to do it. The results were not at all what they hoped for.
