Hi all! So I'm super new to wiring, electronics. Despite that, I really want to get this setup right, so I'm ready to learn everything I need to get there. I've gone through custom water loops, custom cable sleeving, etc, and I'm at my last impasse with these RGB fittings. I've given in as to two separate RGB control forms, with corsair controlling the fans and RGB strips (through their superior Cue software), while the mobo controls the cpu block, gpu block, res, and its own lights (through Gigabyte's poor software). I can't handle 3 different modes for RGB, so this thread is a godsend. That is...if I can figure out how to do all of this. I'm doing 2 packs of RGB fittings for a total of 12, and I've already got the CPU LED header taken, and a res with ALED taking up a digital header (which I am also working on syncing), and an alt res with standard +12V GRB (I think). With 12 fittings, what is the best solution to get them running off the mobo? Is it even possible with only 2 LED headers? My mobo has 1 CPU +12V GRB, 2 +12V GRBW, and 2 +12V/5V digital LED headers. (Gaming 7 x470) Can you daisy chain 6 fittings to one header? Is a resistor/regulator still needed? If a regulator is needed with a heatsink, can it operate for full 24hr cycles safely? How would I go about testing these things? Thanks for any help! This thread has been super helpful already.
