Question How to jRainbow if Mobo doesn't have it??

[Omar_71]

Hello there!!

I've a MSI B450M MORTAR which has 2xjRGB but no jRainbow connectors. I also have a CoolerMaster Fan with jRainbow connector and my case, a NOX INFINITY SIGMA, comes with a RGB Fan controller, which connects to the MB also by the jRainbow connector and itself have only the 6pin.
Soooo, how can I plus both, the controller and CM Fan to the Mobo?

Thanks!

What is jRainbow, can to post a link to it ????
Your MB has 2 x 5050 RGB LED strip 12V connectors so they would only be able to control Non-addressable 4 pin RGB strips/fans.

It's like the RGB but has 1 pin "blocked", so it can't be plugged into the Mobo

Gotcha,
From your page 36 of your MB Manual those JRainbow headers are 12V 4 pin header4s on your MB and should work with any 12V 4 pin strips that use the same pin-out.

- The JRGB1/ JRGB2 connector supports up to 2 meters continuous 5050 RGB LED strips (12V/G/R/B) with the maximum power rating of 3A (12V).

They will Not work with 3 pin addressable RGB devices.

So there is no way to connect those devices to my motherboard? =/

No.
You will need an RGB controller that is compatible with your specic RGB devices.

Those are 3pin ARGB connectors, as in addressable RGB which can change colors on individual leds, Rainbow. Needs software for control.
The 4 pin are for standard, single color entire strip/fan. Red, green, blue and ground.
RGB and ARGB are not interchangeable
