So I'm gonna buy the msi b350 gaming pro carbon, and I want to spice up my build with some rgb strips. But I can't find which rgb strips are compatible with msi's mystic light rgb sync. Does anyone know what rgb strips are compatible.

Plus the rgb strip that I'd like to buy is the Corsair lighting node pro (rbg controller + 4 led strips). Does anyone know if that one is compatible with mystic light?

From Carbon Pro manual:

"This connector supports 5050 RGB multi-color LED strips (12V/G/R/B) with the
maximum power rating of 3A (12V)"

They are talking about on board led strip connector. This means you can use any cheap but standard RGB Strips as long as they wont exceed current rating. And it doesent have to be a "speshul gaming" RGB strip.

As for Corsair Lighting Node, the light strips may work when connected direclty to motherboard but when connected via Corsair controller they wont work (and by work i mean they wont sync with motherboard). Thats how companies roll, instead of making unified system they play royalties and try to force you into specific hardware.
