I definitely recommend posting some pictures of your setup! Itโ€™ll help others to see exactly what cables and ports youโ€™re working with. That way, you can get more precise advice on how to make it work.

Itโ€™s a bit tricky since the pin numbers donโ€™t match. You might want to check your motherboard's manual for compatible headers, or consider using an adapter if available. But remember, if you connect it incorrectly, you could damage your cooler or motherboard.
