I would like to get rgb extensions cables for my gpu and motherboard to the psu. However, I’m not 100% sure of compatibility so I decided to ask here. The gpu is the rx 7800xt (sapphire pure white), the mb is the Msi b760 plus gaming matx- https://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-B760M-...cf74ecd3346b86de9acb0371b88&th=1&gad_source=1, and the psu is the Corsair rm750 gold fully modular psu, in white. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-Connectors-Low-Noise-Operation-Capacitors/dp/B097F1NGLY/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_maf_2?crid=27IDHNPLVIAVV&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ysUvQZcTHwASC1wEkGNKtiqD39-KHkcU9widDCn9TXzSkEAMGRdMnIe2tqMhITQ41eoJnJoucUyRtC-1G9Q_Nl7YVv2gyOjqGXmnDszpdZmCyykNn1oPDtR2Rlm3-rqPlh8pp8ZYutlxjq8NzBtgRCN8wFWy_KpYfno9rehEH2QxcW12oMJmJbfoSUxih1enTkUhLQ7EW_YBQjEDkJxKlg.11tsWVVV6Xspw6HD2PyVCZyA-cHGhTYqheOqFfdXqL4&dib_tag=se&keywords=corsair+750w+power+supply+white&qid=1709450441&sprefix=corsair+750w+power+supply+,aps,103&sr=8-1 Which lian li rgb extension cables should I get for both the gpu and mb? Thanks :) if someone knows, could you please send uk links to the cables if you find some.

So far as I know, the Lian Li Strimer cables are just an extension, so they plug into your PSU cables and then into the device and you connect the 5v addressable 3 pin to your motherboard. In theory, since your motherboard only has 2 of these headers, you can only buy two of the cables, but I don't know if you could daisy chain multiple RGB cables into one header.

They have an optional controller card, but I don't know how that works.
Thanks, so would these two work : for mb: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lian-Li-St...d=db330b73e0d435e9971d32092e210a0b&th=1&psc=1 and for the gpu: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lian-Li-Strimer-12VHPWR-16-Pin-Verlängerung/dp/B0C13G4GPX
 
We're not supposed to link to anyone other than OCUK here, but to answer your question: yes, I believe so.

OCUK's listing for the 24 pin says that the controller is included and I think that means you'll only need to use one of the 3 pin 5v addressable headers, but the manual is confusing, so I'm not sure. If you have both headers free, then it shouldn't matter either way.

FYI: For the graphics, you need to buy the double 8 pin one for a 7800 XT, not the 12vHWPR.

Thanks :) I think I’ll get them from ocuk instead tho bc on Amazon it’s a random seller
