Hey everyone,
I installed a "Gammaxx GTE V2" cooler today but after I'd installed the thing I realized I have no rgb header on my piece of crap ASRock B50M-HDV R4.0 motherboard. The fan itself works, there's just no RGB.
Is there some sort of adapter I can get to maybe plug it into molex or sata on my PSU?
it's a 4 pin RGB.

Thank you!

It should, Its the same as the fan below right? I know the model series you're talking about, even the newer AM5 version doesnt have an RGB connector on it. I had to solder something together with an old corsair Lightning node pro, some wire, and some 3 pin female to male adapter pins i had.

OP, yes, that YACSEJAO RGB Controller will work for you. However, you must realize that all of it will be INSIDE your case, so any time you want to use its three buttons to change the display you will need to reach inside. If you search around you can find a different system for 4-pin plain RGB lights that consists of two boxes. One is the controller that mounts inside your case. The other is a hand-held battery-powered box of may buttons you use to change settings. Most of these used radio signals, but I see some now that appear to use an IR light signal and require that you route a cord with the IR sensor attached to the inner box so that the sensor is outside to "see" the remote's signals.
