Help with corsair fans and case!

Ok so I bought the corsair 570x rgb case and I wanted to know if I can connect the included sp 120's to the node pro and if so how? Thanks!

Yes you can. You will be able to link everything together and have a synchronized effect. You will need to link both the LED strips and fan together.

Now I never used Corsair's LED setup myself but usually (across all brands) there is 3 ways to connect RGB headers together: Through a motherboard, using a LED/RGB hub or directly connecting them together. After that there will always be a software to download (unless it's a hub with direct RGB buttons on the hub itself).

You will need to download the iCUE software, which will have a "LINK" section. I suggest you start from there, it should tell you how to connect them together directly from the software. Usually, any fans connected onto the motherboard will automatically pop out on that software.

Thanks for the quick reply but I just wanted to say it looks like the cable that is coming out from the sp 120 fan hub is hardwired to the controls on the case, so im not sure how I would do this.

If this is the case, there should be an actual connector (that's coming from the case hub/case controller) that is made for these fans. What pin-type is it?

3 pin I assume u mean the part that connects to the mobo. Sorry I could not undertsnad the way you worded it.

Right that's my bad. Ok let me try this again.

You need to connect the Node Pro to the Fan Hub that's pre-installed in the case. View this link below, there's a picture in there that explains it:
