Hello Silent, I am no professional but my system is up and running and is working great. I needed to purchase a 9 port TT Controller "Thermaltake TT Sync SATA Powered 9 Port Addressable LED Controller Premium Edition" i plugged in all nine Thermaltake Pure Plus 12 and 14 RGB TT Premium Edition fans into the controller. (dont forget to attach the 3 fan headers to the motherboard also to the controller) the data port goes to your 5 volt addressable header. MUST BE THE 5 Volt. The Thermaltake Water 3.0 ARGB Motherboard Sync Edition High Efficiency Radiator CPU Cooler CL-W234-PL12SW-A I plugged into the second addressable 5 volt header and for power I used the 3 amp fan header labled H_AMP. System works flawlessly on the Maximus Hero XI. There is no way of stabilizing the header pins, I just attached the header cable on and used a tie on the frame above to keep in place. I agree they should have a better connector for that. RGB.mp4

I am building virtually the same system as you, Maximus Hero XI , Thermaltake Pure Plus 14 RGB TT Premium Edition X 4, Thermaltake Pure Plus 12 RGB TT Premium Edition X5, 360mm Water 3.0 ARGB. There is two 12 volt addressable headers on the board, plus two 5 volt addressable headers which are right along side the 12 volts. I am using two controllers, one i ordered separately a Thermaltake TT Sync SATA Powered 9 Port Addressable LED Controller Premium Edition and will use the other from the 3 pack boxes of fans. I am in the process of building the machine. I am in new territory when it comes to rgb but when I am done I will post some pics on how it was connected. It seems a bit tricky with Aura and Thermaltake but the controllers are compatible from everything I read and saw.
