When I Put color cycle it doesnt follow the right collor speed cycle from other aRGB components (like my XPG D50 ram modules). Also it flahes abrutaly every ~3 seconds.

Hi i need help i dont know if i need to get this but i have a micro atx mobo and I can’t find non of the rgb headers plz help and i have 3rgb fans but the rgb doesn’t work and i dont know where on my motherboard is the rgb header
Great video! YES it will allow you to use your ARGB on your RGB mobo. But will you able to fully use its ARGB functions? Or will you be limited to its RGB functions only(even if you're plugging an ARGB)? Cause that's what I heard. Thanks in advance for your help!
Sorry but can I use it in the opposite way? Like convert the addressable RGB to non addressable RGB? Because I have only one 3 pin and one 4 pin and two addressable RGB devices and I want to control each one separately. ( I'm ok if it's possible to change one addressable RGB device to non addressable RGB ).
Connect it to the SATA power cable that comes out of the power supply. There usually are many SATA plugs often on a single cable. The SATA power plug is the same plug that powers HDDs and SDDs.
I recently built my first ever PC and made the mistake of getting ARGB fans when my motherboard only has an RGB header. I now intend to add an RGB fan to go along with the three. If I get this adapter, will I be able to plug the 3 ARGB fans and the RGB fan into it and onto the RGB header of the motherboard?
Just purchase one since my x470 Prime pro only has 12v and I'm not looking to upgrade the entire board for one feature since I already went from a 2700x to 5950x

Thank you for the Video, I just bought and built myself a Budget PC with the Case "Inter-Tech X608" which has this kind of 3 pin header and my Motherboard only has a 4 pin header. So my question: Would this device presented in the Video work with my Case ? (I dont know if it is important but my motherboard is from MSI)
Seems you are in the same boat I am because I also have a 3 pin that looks like a 4 pin but with a pin blocked out so I can’t plug into my MSI mobo 4 pins but I am assuming that once we are able to connect our 3 pin to the converter it should already turn the fans or led or whatever it is on since the converter will get the power you would’ve otherwise gotten from the mobo Edit: lol I commented without answer anyhow I believe it would work in your case though only with one Argb 3 pin since the product only has 1 i am going to buy this product see how it works
@@heyjoji1954 thank you for your answer :) yeah I think I will also buy it because I've been looking for a solution for a while now. And yes, I only have one 3 pin cable that has to be plugged in because there is a kind of distributor where the fan and the other RGB Lightings are connected to

@techless hello.. my mobo is gigabyte b450m, i have 1 argb (5volts) fan and 1 rgb (12volts ) fan, and aircooler rgb 12volts fan... it is ok to connect my argb fan to this converter and my two 12volts rgb fan and aricooler connect to 12volts converter.. can i synchronized to my mobo and not flickering?.. base on your diagram 3:05.. pls reply thanks..
It depends on the power consumption of your RGB hardware. Another guy here in the comment section is successfully running 6 fans from the converter. 3 devices should almost certainly be fine.
@@techlessYT my rgb header manual 5050 standard led ,maximum of 2Amps and maximum of 2meters.. so basically 3in1 fan argb and 3in1fan 12volts and 1 fan rgb aircooler it is ok this converter bro?.. 3 devides connected...
just want to clarify: the port on the left side (labelled G D V) has an output of 5 volts, is this correct? is this where you connect the ARGB wire of the fan (while the wire for the fan is connected to the CHA FAN)? thank you.
Great video!....My problem is I have a 12v 4 pin female connector lead coming from my RGB case fan. I don't have an RGB header on my mother board. I need to convert it to 5v header in order to connect to my RGB hub. Will this converter work for this purpose?
I have Asus tuf b450 gaming pro and 7 id cooling argb fans (oh, and light tape on computer case). When I connected all stuff, rainbow light is blinking, but one color is ok
Can you expand a bit where you said if you wanted to have more than just a static color and take advantage of ARGB you'd have to buy a separate controller? What's the minimalist way to be able to use all of ARGB capabilities with only a RGB header?
The minimalist way (or rather the only way) would be a separate ARGB controller. Unfortunately the standard RGB header (12V GRB) can only carry information for a single static color at once, so ARGB effects, that require more than one color at once, are simply not possible. So the only way to enjoy real ARGB without an appropriate header is to get a dedicated ARGB controller.
I got the same converter but when i plug in my 5 volt fans and some of ky older 12 volt fans aswell, Which all connect from the converter to the motherboard my original 12 volt fans will become the colour i set them too with msi mistic light but the 5 volt fans will another colour. When i set my 12 volts to for example white light the 5 volts are yellow and when the 12 volts are blue the 5 volts are green. I really dont understand whats going wrong
I have a b450 tomahawk max mobo and already used a converter on my darkFlash CF8 pro.

Hello! Can I connect Deepcool RGB Convertor (5V to 12V RGB transfer Hub) to Cooler Master wired RGB controller instead to a motherboard? I will then connect 1-to-10 Addressable RGB Splitter Hub to 5V connector of Deepcool RGB Convertor and will then connect cooler master ML240L liquid cooler to 12 V connector of Deepcool RGB Convertor. 1-to-10 Addressable RGB Splitter Hub will have M.2 aRGB heatsink as well as DEEPCOOL GH-01 A-RGB Graphics Card GPU Brace Support Holder. Will this scenario work for me?
I recently brought a Razer Chroma Controller only to find out that it only supports 5v and all my fans are 12v. Can I use this device to convert my 12v fans to 5v to connect it to the controller? It is really frustrating. Thank you for your answer.
I recently bought a Deepcool CF120 fan, which i mistakenly thought I could plug straight into my MSI B450M mother board (JRGB1 12v pins) . It has a 3 pin fan cable and an additional cable which I presume is for the RGB. If I purchased one of these adapters, would only plugging in the 3 pin fan cable work still allow me to control the RGB? The other cable would become redundant?
You need to plug in both cables. The 3 pin fan cables connects to your mainboard to power the fan itself (rotation only, no light). The additional RGB cable goes into the converter and will only be responsible for RGB.
I have the x470 mobo liked you showed in the beginning. All i want is my coolermaster fans to be able to connect with aura sync since they cant plug in to my motherboard. Will this solve my problem?
two of my motherboards are Z77 which in the time of release i think grb doesn't even exist fully yet (correct me if i'm wrong). so, if my motherboard only has 4 pin header for cpu and 3 pin for other fans, i need this to control the existing argb fans today via software right?
Actually I'm not aware of a single Z77 board that has any RGB headers at all, neither 5V ARGB nor 12V GRB. If that is true for your boards as well, there's no other way than getting a dedicated RGB controller that connects over (internal) USB. The headers you're mentioning are probably just fan headers (fan rotation, not light).
@@techlessYT yeah you're absolutely right - there's no rgb headers for Z77 boards. i just thought maybe i could try connecting to a cpu fan header with the use of this deepcool device to control the argb fans via software. i guess that's just a dumb idea lol. thanks man, i appreaciate your response! 🍻
Hey, il have "up here" fans i grabbed on amazon for 40€ on what do i plug it because its not deepcool, not msi... so can you pls tell me on what do i plug it
I don't understand... I have an Asus Strix z270e motherboard with no ARGB, my CPU waterblock and my radiator fans have both ARGB connection. Someone told me I should buy this but I don't see where I can plug the ARGB fans & waterblock here... Maybe I'm stupid lol
hi, i just bought this controller for my fans, they are cooler master masterfan mf 120 halo argb and i have a flikering problem i use corsair icue software and i dont know if it is a software issue or a hardware issue, can you please help me, thanks.

Hey man i hope you replay i have a msi x470 gaming plus motherboard and the msi mag 240r cooler i am trying to to connect the rgb but the cooler has a 5v and the motherboard has 12v jrgb slot. If i buy this will it help pls respond
Hi, I recently bought this and found out that my motherboard has only one 4pin rgb header. I used this converter thermaltake ux100 which is an ARGB cpu cooler (which i mistakenly bought). Is it ok if I plug my non ARGB fans into the right side of this converter (4pin-12v)? My motherboard is gigabyte h270 gaming 3.
Sir. I have a gigabyte ga-ab350m gaming 3(no rgb headers) but it has 4 pin (hybrid fan headers) and I bought a AIO that needs 3pin 5v. question is can i use this item to controll the rgb of my pump?
Something like this should work fine: www.amazon.com/dp/B07JZCNPNV/ Make sure to check the pinout of your AIO's ARGB header - you might need an adapter, if it's e.g. from Deepcool or has any other unusual pinout.
Great video! But I have one question. I have a lian li lancool 2 case and it has an argb front panel connector. My mother board does not have an argb header so where on the converter would I plug this front panel argb connector?
Can it convert digital 5v RGB to analog 12v RGB? I have a Rog Strix B350 with 12v headers I use to control my leds through Aura Sync, and then I got a case with three ARGB 5v I can only control via a LED button on the case itself. All I want is to control everything through Aura Sync.
The Deepcool converter should be what you're looking for. Though it will convert from 12V analog to 5V digital, but not the other way around. This is actually what you described, so the device will work for you, given that your ARGB hardware has a compatible plug.
Im a little confused here. So if I connect the "DEEPCOOL" fan (RF120), will it's RGB lighting work once I plugged it on the PSU even though I have nothing to connect with the "MB" because its the problem on the first place. No RGB header on MB. I noticed that the bottom has 2 connectors (PSU/MB), does it mean that I can just connect one of the 2? Totally frustrated with my connections. Lol @techless
What do you mean with "colorful loops"? The CF120 has a standard plug, so it should work with the converter. To connect 3 fans at once you will need an additional splitter or hub.
I assume you mean the H500M or ARGB editions of the H500(P) as the original H500 comes with non-adressable RGB fans? The ARGB fans should be compatible with the converter as they are labelled as compatible to "Aura Sync", "Asrock Polychrome" and so on. That usually means they come with a standard plug or at least include the necessary adapters.
@@techlessYT Yes the ARGB version of the H500. I only see the 3pin connectors. Would I insert into the ASUS section of this adapter/converter? I do not want to place this directly onto my ASUS B450 MB that only has RGB headers.
If you're not sure just check the writings on the fan's ARGB plug. It should say something like "GND, D, +5V" or "GDV". Just use the accordingly labeled header on the Deepcool device.
Hi man. Keep it up your great work I have a question. Is it ok if I connect a HUB where I have connected 3 fans to the 5v input of the converter? Would it burn the RGB?
There's a competitor! Check out my video about the EZDIY RGB Converter:

2:12 can i connect a hub of 6 argb fans from that input? thanks!
I can't really say whether 6 fans are a bit too much or will still work - depends on your fans. You probably will have to just give it a try.
@@techlessYT and 4 fans?
I can only make a guess... 4 fans should very likely work fine, really depends on the brightness and quantity of the build-in LEDs.
@@techlessYT does not consume much, are the cf120
The specs state 1.32W. That's really not much, even 6 should work fine.
So you can put 1 splitter argb (3 pin) fan, and 2 splitter rgb (4pin) fan..its that correct??
can I plug my fan hub into the deepcool converter to control my fan's lights via software?
This is what I was wondering as well.. did you ever figure it out?
@@daedalos5132 I haven't. I'll just get a motherboard that already has 3pin header instead of experimenting on more unnecessary hardware 😅
two of my motherboards are Z77 which in the time of release i think grb doesn't even exist fully yet (correct me if i'm wrong). so, if my motherboard only has 4 pin header for cpu and 3 pin for other fans, i need this to control the existing argb fans today via software right?
Actually I'm not aware of a single Z77 board that has any RGB headers at all, neither 5V ARGB nor 12V GRB. If that is true for your boards as well, there's no other way than getting a dedicated RGB controller that connects over (internal) USB.
The headers you're mentioning are probably just fan headers (fan rotation, not light).
@@techlessYT yeah you're absolutely right - there's no rgb headers for Z77 boards. i just thought maybe i could try connecting to a cpu fan header with the use of this deepcool device to control the argb fans via software. i guess that's just a dumb idea lol. thanks man, i appreaciate your response! 🍻
You said if I want the effects I need a dedicated rgb controller. Where can I get that?
Hey, il have "up here" fans i grabbed on amazon for 40€ on what do i plug it because its not deepcool, not msi... so can you pls tell me on what do i plug it
I don't understand... I have an Asus Strix z270e motherboard with no ARGB, my CPU waterblock and my radiator fans have both ARGB connection. Someone told me I should buy this but I don't see where I can plug the ARGB fans & waterblock here... Maybe I'm stupid lol
hi, i just bought this controller for my fans, they are cooler master masterfan mf 120 halo argb and i have a flikering problem i use corsair icue software and i dont know if it is a software issue or a hardware issue, can you please help me, thanks.
I saw in amazon that this is not compatible with asrock MB, I thought that this doesnbt need to be coneceted to the Motherboard, can you explain me please?
any problem my id cooling 3in1 fan, 2 fan flickering only 1 fan has stable color..how to solved this problem..
does it work on all rgb fans or just deepcool ones?
Can we put a splitter on the convertor ? Pls
can i connect my 12 v hub to this or i need to connect it directly to my fan?
So I can my 12 v grb connection from the Mainboard convert to a 5 v connection and can we do everything with a 5 v rgb connection?
Hey man i hope you replay i have a msi x470 gaming plus motherboard and the msi mag 240r cooler i am trying to to connect the rgb but the cooler has a 5v and the motherboard has 12v jrgb slot. If i buy this will it help pls respond
Hi, I recently bought this and found out that my motherboard has only one 4pin rgb header. I used this converter thermaltake ux100 which is an ARGB cpu cooler (which i mistakenly bought). Is it ok if I plug my non ARGB fans into the right side of this converter (4pin-12v)? My motherboard is gigabyte h270 gaming 3.
Yes, that's what the headers on the right side are for.
@@techlessYT thanks! You helped me a lot!
Sir. I have a gigabyte ga-ab350m gaming 3(no rgb headers) but it has 4 pin (hybrid fan headers) and I bought a AIO that needs 3pin 5v. question is can i use this item to controll the rgb of my pump?
Unfortunately not, you will need a RGB controller instead.
techless can you show me or link something like that? When Im searching its getting all mixed up and I cant find the specific item. Thank you so much
Something like this should work fine: www.amazon.com/dp/B07JZCNPNV/
Make sure to check the pinout of your AIO's ARGB header - you might need an adapter, if it's e.g. from Deepcool or has any other unusual pinout.
techless the wiring manual says that
*1 male 3pin 5v for series connection fan
*1 female 3pin 5v for connectiong to motherboard
@techless can u control brightness from mobo's software with this converter?
Great video! But I have one question. I have a lian li lancool 2 case and it has an argb front panel connector. My mother board does not have an argb header so where on the converter would I plug this front panel argb connector?
As stated in the case's manual the plug has a "+5V, D, GND" pinout. So it plugs into the top left port, as you can see at 3:05.
Thanks a bunch man!!
Hi - when using this device - The cable connecting this to the SATA cable was overheating? Why is that and is there any quick fix?
I'd definitely contact Deepcool. It could be a defective cable or converter if you can exclude any external heat sources.
@@techlessYT thank you for your quick reply! Great vid
I got CF 120 which is 3 fans, will it work if I plug the 3 pin argb splitter to the hub and sync it?
Should work.
Can it convert digital 5v RGB to analog 12v RGB? I have a Rog Strix B350 with 12v headers I use to control my leds through Aura Sync, and then I got a case with three ARGB 5v I can only control via a LED button on the case itself. All I want is to control everything through Aura Sync.
The Deepcool converter should be what you're looking for. Though it will convert from 12V analog to 5V digital, but not the other way around. This is actually what you described, so the device will work for you, given that your ARGB hardware has a compatible plug.
Can i use a 12v chinese rgb controller with 12v GRB fan
Im a little confused here. So if I connect the "DEEPCOOL" fan (RF120), will it's RGB lighting work once I plugged it on the PSU even though I have nothing to connect with the "MB" because its the problem on the first place. No RGB header on MB. I noticed that the bottom has 2 connectors (PSU/MB), does it mean that I can just connect one of the 2? Totally frustrated with my connections. Lol @techless
You need to connect it to the motherboard as well. As you don't have an RGB header you should probably get an RGB controller instead of a converter.
will these work with three Deepcool CF120 ARGB fans at once i just want the colorful loops?
please do answer
What do you mean with "colorful loops"? The CF120 has a standard plug, so it should work with the converter. To connect 3 fans at once you will need an additional splitter or hub.
Sorry i did not clarify like the base lighting modes such as rainbow effect and such
What about 3-pin cooler master fans that come with the h500 case?
I assume you mean the H500M or ARGB editions of the H500(P) as the original H500 comes with non-adressable RGB fans?
The ARGB fans should be compatible with the converter as they are labelled as compatible to "Aura Sync", "Asrock Polychrome" and so on. That usually means they come with a standard plug or at least include the necessary adapters.
@@techlessYT Yes the ARGB version of the H500. I only see the 3pin connectors. Would I insert into the ASUS section of this adapter/converter? I do not want to place this directly onto my ASUS B450 MB that only has RGB headers.
If you're not sure just check the writings on the fan's ARGB plug. It should say something like "GND, D, +5V" or "GDV". Just use the accordingly labeled header on the Deepcool device.
Hi man. Keep it up your great work
I have a question. Is it ok if I connect a HUB where I have connected 3 fans to the 5v input of the converter? Would it burn the RGB?
Thanks! 3 fans on a single are usually fine. You could likely add even more, but this depends on the power consumption of the fans.
Pls help mine didn't work, i used Rakk maris abyss fans and mortar max b450. i tried different SATA psu's. Still not working.
wow great video. you need more subs
