Connect one end of the RGB LED strip extension cable to the header
and the other end to your RGB LED strip. The black wire (marked with
a triangle on the plug) of the extension cable must be connected to
Pin 1 (12V) of this header. The 12V pin (marked with an arrow) on the
other end of the extension cable must be lined up with the 12V of the
LED strip. Be careful with the connection orientation of the LED strip;
incorrect connection may lead to the damage of the LED strip.
For how to turn on/off the lights of the LED strip please visit the "Unique Features" webpage of
GIGABYTE's website.
