Question Understanding Pinout of J5013/J5014 header on Gigabyte 3070 Vision

Goal:
Sync GPU RGB strip with iCUE by connecting an RGB cable from Commander Pro to (what I think is) the RGB header on the GPU at J5014 (see 1st image, top right header J5014).
Why:
OpenRGB and SignalRGB haven't been working for me and I want a solution that avoids RGB Fusion at all costs, plus I just like iCUE's implementation.

From this video of a Vision 3080 teardown it looks like the cable connecting the front RGB to the PCB connects to those headers, though it's unclear without taking the heat-spreader off my 3070 which of the two pinouts it is. The 4 pins (J5014) might be sending fan AND rgb power/information, or it might only be doing RGB. For my intended purpose (connecting the header to my commander pro) I'm also not sure if the pins will be identical.

I'll be posting my findings to this thread or another for others to find if they want to do the same thing.

Any information is greatly appreciated!

i don´t think hardware changes at this level will work.
would use fusion as solution. you just need to install icue then turn off effects then run rgb fusion 2.0 as admin. you should see your ram and motherboard as all sync
