This is the case I want to buy and I don't understand where to fix the connectors of the fans to the motherboard. My motherboard does not have a argb header so I need to control the RGB with the remote they provide. But I heard that still I have to connect something to the motherboard. What do we have to connect and would a MSI b460m A pro motherboard support it?

The guiding document is the motherboard's User Guide along with the RGB Header documentation.

Reference:

https://download.msi.com/archive/mnu_exe/mb/M7C88v1.0.pdf

[Do verify that I correctly identified the applicable User Manual.]

Physically numbered Pages 8, 17, and 18 discuss RGB connections.

==== > Do note all of the red "Important" and "Caution" flags.

The User Guide also include recommendations that you visit MSI's website for more up-to-date information. Do that as well.

Use both the Motherboard User Guide and the Case documentation to map out the necessary/required RGB connections. By connectors and pin by pin within the connectors.

Sketch it all out until you are certain you have all pins...

Sketch it all out until you are certain you have all pins correctly matched. Be very wary of any adapters that may or could be required.

Just because the pin alignments appear to match that does not mean that the resulting electrical connectivity/connections will match.
