Is it possible to add argb fan directly to B360Aorus gaming3 motherboard? My Antec Prism Argb fan has 4 pin and 3 pin connecter. I connect 4 pin to mobo, fan spining correcly without lights. I didnt find a way to connect 3pin to my mother board . Is there any way?

Is that the Addressable RGB connector on the motherboard? Just to be sure, check in the manual and confirm. Fan and RGB have different connectors.

Thanks for reply. I check motherboard, there is one 5 pin and two 3 pin connector(as in the image) but unfortunately none of them match to the fan rgb connector.

You said you also got a 3 pin connector, right. Perhaps you need to use that?

Bu they don't match each other, motherboard connector is 3 pin and fan connector is 3 pin with a gap just like this image

Hmm. I thought it was a proper three pin connector. Where did you buy this from? Amazon? Perhaps ask a question on the product page and see whether this comes with a connector adapter or not. Also, verify whether this connector is for some proprietary RGB technology (AuraSync, etc), that could explain the weird pin layout of the connector.

@digibrush: bro please label your image properly it is the argb connector(5v) not fan connector plus you need this antec argb controller hub to connect your argb port.
