Phanteks P400 case + Asus z370-E Motherboard | RGB led questions

[iAmAdrian]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to figure out how to sync these lights so I can manually configure them inside Aura Sync, but I can't seem to connect the LED wires to my motherboard. The LED connector is a little big for the RGB pins in my board. The board came with an RGB connector but when I hook it up on the Phanteks LED strip, it still won't fit.

Am I missing something here? Do I need to purchase a separate connector/adapter?

If so, can you guys send me a link where I can purchase it?

Thank you

I believe this is what you are looking for http://www.phanteks.com/PH-CB_RGB4P.html
However, I believe that there are some problems with the instructions on how to make it work.Check this thread out https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/6h8i4v/phanteks_p400s_with_adapter_for_aura_sync/

I think that's what I need, but I'm not sure yet.

I just want this LED from the case to sync with my board/graphics/ram and fans.

Currently it turns on, but just static. It doesn't have any functionalities like breathing/strobe.

It does have a controller on top of the case besides the power switch.

That switch only lets you change colors of the leds, it doesn't have any modes. like flashing mode, or breathing mode, or strobe.

I needed it to be in sync with the board/ram/gpu.

The rgb strips that come with the case only fit the cases controller.
You'll need separate strips if you want to connect them to your motherboard.

I believe that is what the adapter does.
