The picture is from a board that came with Armageddon ATX casing. It should be for the colorful casing fans.

Can I clarify the following:
a) the bottom left 2pin socket has a marking -12V. Is this for power supply?

b) the middle 2pin socket marked K1 - is this to connect to toggle button to control color mode?

c) I am guessing the 5nos 6pin sockets (3 at the top and 2 at the bottom) are for the fans. There are 2 fans provided in the casing that have 6pin connectors.

d) lastly, what is the 4pin socket (vertical relative to the other sockets) at the right for?

I hv not installed fanciful rgb fans and LEDs before so this is something new to me. And unfortunately no instructions were included.

No one has connected similar board before?

You have to connect by the cable type that came with the case.
Only fan and cable that have proper header you can connect.
Other brand type of fan cannot be connected unless you change this controller board.

The 5 header with 6 pin look like for fan so check if it is for the case fan.
The two header with 2 pin could be one for power and the light.
The one with 4 pin could be for fan controller.

This is assumption, if you really not sure bring to a shop let them fix up for you.

Why don't you see what cables are in the case which fit those connections and then report back what's on the other end of those cables so we can help you? You either have cables which fit so you can use the board or you don't so you can't use the board.
