I will post pics to help what I am saying
I know fan headers go into mobo fan slots
But how do I connect with rbg?
Spent 6 hours today trying to figure it out have no idea
Also ssd drive I cannot find the right connections and the motherboard booklet is as helpful as wet rain trying to paint
As Google says there should be a sata cable but where do I find that because there is none in psu or motherboard didn't come with any
 
 
You need to list all the parts first.
Last picture shows you have and ARGB controller in which you have to connect all ARGB fans. Controller has an SATA power connector which is same as for SATA disks and comes from PSU and it's SATA/Disk cables.(that's the larger, flat one.)
Other connector, the smaller one with 3 pins is supposed to be connected to ARGB connector on the MB to be able to use software to control lights.
PS. Important note !!!!
RGB and ARGB are different things and are not compatible with each other. You have to be sure your fans are ARGB to be able to use them with that controller.

Oh yeah sorry

So you have RGB fans which are not compatible with that controller/Hubwhich also has to be connected to one of JRAINBOW connectors on the MB. Problem could be with your fans if they are not ARGB.
Did fans come with case and controllers If they did they should be of ARG type. You can check that easy enough. Each fan should have 2 cables /connectors, One female 4 pin for for their motors and one for lights.
