Since the connection is ultimately established via a header on the mainboard, the software of the mainboard manufacturer used does not differentiate between the various connected ARGB devices. Which means that in addition to the three fans, the lighting of the Pure Base 500DX and the Silent Loop 2 can also be connected to the hub, for example.Īs a result, the PC shines in the light setting defined by the controller or mainboard software. The distributor included in each Triple Pack of Light Wings has an ARGB input and six ARGB outputs. In the worst case, the connection can be overloaded and damaged. Although it is possible for example to combine two ARGB fans to an ARGB header by means of an adapter cable connected in series, the output power of the header must be observed closely. True RGB enthusiasts often want to install more colored products than headers are available. In the long term, ARGB technology could prevail in the high-end sector due to its higher versatility, even if the production costs are higher than the RGB counterparts. Modern ARGB fans, such as the Light Wings, require an ARGB header. RGB lighting as featured in the Dark Base 700 for example therefore requires an RGB header. In addition to the voltage, the difference is mainly in the control: The color is regulated via three channels ("R", "G" and "B") for RGB connections, and only via one channel ("Data") for ARGB connections. Very important: RGB and ARGB are incompatible. An ARGB header can also be used to display advanced effects, such as the popular rainbow effect. An LED strip that has an RGB connector thus only lights up in one color at a time. Via 5V ARGB headers, the individual LEDs of the connected device can be addressed (which is why the "A" stands for "addressable"), via 12V RGB headers all LEDs are synchronized. Luminous components can be connected to both types, but the range of functions is different.
These connectors can be visually distinguished by the fact that RGB headers have four pins, while ARGB headers have only three of them.
