[SOLVED] How to connect case argb fans to motherboard ?

[Majd91]

Hello,
I bought Asus tuf b460 plus gaming motherboard and Antec nx800 case , I want to control case fans speed and rgb , I notice that rgb connectors in motherboard are male 4 pins and the cable from Antec case rgb controller is 3 pins female ( like 4 pins female but one of the holes is not opened) , how to connect these together ?

This is the only converter I know of since 3 pin are 5V and 4 pin are 12 Volts. You can also just use the switch on the case.

Here's one way:

A 'free' way (depends type of fans you have) is to move the fan positive lead from +12V to the +5V contact in molex connectors, or between the +12V and +5V to get (effectively) +7V. That gives you 3 different speeds for DC fans.
