I'm trying out some rgb in my rig and honestly im not too sure how to go about it.

What i have is
Arbg header motherboard (motherboard itself has rgb backlight too)
Argb cooler
Argb led strip
(Maybe) couple of normal rgb fans

Questions would be,
1) how to connect all of it to my motherboard? (Plug into some hub then to my mobo?)
2) will the rgb devices all sync?
3) assuming i am using an msi motherboard, does it mean i can only use msi's software(mystic light) to sync all the rgb
4) whats 3pin, 4pin, 5v , 12v anyone knows?

Daisy chain all to your motherboard and sync them with the software ?
Do take note you can't mix 12v and 5v RGB headers.

Just connect all together. Anyway 5v and 12v pin is different, u can't connect them anyway.
