Hi,

My Motherboard is Gigabyte GA-Z170N-WIFI-CF Rev 1.0.
I plan on buying a "MasterBox Lite 5 RGB" case from Cooler Master which sports an RGB feature.
But my MB doesn't have any mention of RGB support. So how can I utilise the RGB feature in the case ?
Is there any external component to help me with this or I'm better not to buy that case ?
Please help me clear this confusion.

Thanks.

The rgb fans should have two plugs, one for power, and one for connecting to the rgb splitter.
Basically u plug all the fans to the splitter cable, then plug the splitter cable to the rgb header on the mobo.
For the case that u are about to buy, those fans are meant to be controlled by "Gigabyte RGB Fusion" along with software. So if your mobo doesnt have the rgb header, then they probably wont glow (or u just cant control the styles at all).

If you really want rgb fans badly, there are case fans that comes with a hub/controller.
Just plug all fans to the hub, and power it up (usually USB2.0/SATA), and u can play with the controller.
