Question about argb hubs

[K3Nv2]

I'm having a new case today but my motherboard doesn't have argb plug I'm curious if I can just buy something like this hub and control fanspeed/argb configuration with software using this hub

Thermalright Fan and ARGB HUB ×8 ARGB/PWM Hub Controller Used SATA Power Supply, Hub Support 8 Groups of Fans, 8-Port PC PWM Fan and ARGB Fan Controller,PWM Fan/ARGB Lighting Hub(Fan and ARGB HUB×8 ) https://a.co/d/572xyjl

That specific hub you linked still requires an ARGB header to be able to work. if your board has one of the 3-pin ARGB headers, then you can use it, but otherwise, you can't. You can still likely use the fan headers though. I just don't recommend running the CPU fan on that header (unless you're running your fans on an AIO). It's basically a splitter, probably doesn't have any sort of logic running on it.

I mentioned my board doesn't have a argb header so I'm looking into other options I can still control them by using software

you need a controller, something like:

That uses a remote, has to be other options?

The most common ones uses the remote others have a USB connector and you can use a software. just search for ARGB Controller, not hub.

Kind of what I'm doing but looking for a reliable one that works with software.

Razer makes one that works with software, but that means you have to use a Razer product lol. (also it doesn't have any fan headers, just ARGB headers)
