I have "ASUS Prime x370-PRO" and "MasterAir MA410P"

Currently, I am using Wired controller that was came from "MasterAir MA410P"


I followed instruction below:

If I want to use "ASUS Aura", I have to remove "O and P", right ?
If so, I have to connect "Before O" to "RGB_Header", is correct ? It mean I don't have to worry about power supply ?

Now below image is my computer case:

As you can see above, my computer case have its own fan controller.
1st fan controller can control front and back fans.
2nd fan controller can control top fans.

Right now, I have 2 fans in the front, 1 fan in back, 2 fans in the top.
System Fans have no AURA future but I am planning to buy only 1 of "Corsair ML120 Pro RGB"
Which will be 1 of the front Fan.

My plan was,
I want to control the fan speed from computer case controller, but I want to use AURA in software.
The biggest problem is the mainboard only have 1 RGB_Header and I am not sure what do I need.
Also CPU cooler and System cooler were different manufacture.

Anyone have suggestions ?
 
Honestly if you don't need to control the rgb color, no you don't need it.

I suggest you just go ahead and replace the original case fans with corsairs fan.
If your not particular of having a multi rgb colored fan choose one color for your case and be done with it.

I have 2 of these in red on my raidmax helios, the noise level right now pretty low.

You will probably shoot me for recommending this but you will thank me later down the road.
Let the motherboard bios have dibs and control the system fans and cpu fans.
As long as your not trying to do any major over clocking with high voltage settings.
Nine times out of ten the motherboard will do a great job at controlling the fans.
Make sure your room tempature isn't too hot or cold, the mobo fan sensors will pick up on it and adjust it.
While being idle when your not there or under full load when you are using it.
