 This little dohiki, the RGB converter, will allow you to use digital RGB products on your non-digital RGB header on your MOBO. So basically, 5V 3pin to 12V 4pin. So today, we're going to be talking about a deep cool RGB converter. It converts 5V to 12V. And all this RGB stuff is super confusing. Basically, if you have a digital RGB product that's 5V 3pin. For non-digital, that's 12V 4pin. So what this little converter guy lets you do is you have a digital product that's like the HALOS LOX Digital which we reviewed last video. It will allow you to use this one which is usually a 3pin product in a 4pin or 12V RGB header on your MOBO. So let me repeat that again because even I'm confused. This little dohiki, the RGB converter, will allow you to use digital RGB products on your non-digital RGB header on your MOBO. So basically, 5V 3pin to 12V 4pin. Setting it up is not hard but it's a little, it's not intuitive. It's not clear exactly what you're supposed to do. There is a short instruction diagram but it's not very helpful. Basically, you have a converter and you have the, these are the only cables that come with it. The middle converter goes into the bottom, plugs into the bottom pins. So if you can see the deep cool gamer logo on camera, this one, the middle header plugs in here. And it's not intuitive because you really have to force it in to get it to properly get in there. And you know, if you're a monkey around your computer and you don't want to force anything, it's always like a bad idea like oh god the RAM's not fitting, why not? Or the GPU's not fitting in properly, why not? So I don't usually like forcing things in but this one is really very tight. You gotta force that in there. And then you plug it into your SATA. So any SATA connection will do. Plug this guy in. Alright, so the SATA plugs in nice and neat. And there's a white light that goes on on the converter meaning that it's powered by the SATA. And this is the end. There's only one wire left. So you have one wire going to the SATA, then it plugs into the other wire plugs directly into the converter. And the last wire plugs into your four pin RGB header on your MOBO. This one. So we're gonna get a digital product. As I mentioned, it's the Phanteks Halo Slux, which is a five volt three pin. And we are gonna plug it into the... And again, this one is super tight. You really gotta work your way, work it in. You really gotta work that thing in there. You gotta plug in properly. So if the converter is working, you should see the halos light up when I plug it into the converter. And I'm gonna plug it into the five volt here. And there you go. So this is a digital product but it's now plugged into the non-digital RGB header on your motherboard. So question. Can you have multiple types on just one converter? Let's say you have some digital, some non-digital. And to answer that, we're gonna plug in the non-digital product, the halos non-digital. And this is a 12 volt so it goes on the other end of the converter. So now we have two products, one non-digital and one digital. Both plugged into the non-digital RGB header on the motherboard and both are working. Thanks to the deep cool RGB converter, five volt, 12 volt. And if you notice that everything should be purple but the Phanteks Halo's non-digital is green. The answer to that is we tackled it in another video basically. It's not a problem with the product itself. I think it's something to do with the wiring that Phanteks did to try to encourage you to use all Phanteks products. But again, it's easy enough to change this to the purple color. And if you're interested, it is in the other video that we did. The one thing this converter doesn't do is 12 volt to 5 volt. You can't take a non-digital product and expect it to output or expect to plug it into the 3 pin 5 volt RGB header on your motherboard. But everything else basically, you can take both digital and non-digital and then stick it into your non-digital 4 pin RGB header on your motherboard. It's actually quite popular here in our grocery store, this little item. The problem with Deepcool is there's not a very long list of item compatibility. Some customers have asked me how many fans can we plug in, can we do a fan hub and then how many fans basically can you have going in this setup. To be honest, I don't know. We are going to update our YouTube page, the video description here with all the information we find based on our different customers like what products work with this converter and things like that. But if you ask us, we usually say and we're honest like we don't know the answer because Deepcool also is not clear on what products are compatible and which products are not with this converter. But although as you can see with the halos, no problem. There's been no problem so far with the halos and our customers generally do not have any problems with compatibility. It's just been upliers where some products just really won't work. And again, we'll update that in the video description below. So just a word of warning on the Deepcool RGB converter. It's not purely compatible with all of the different software settings. For example, in OroSync we have it on rainbow now and there's no problem, the colors cycle naturally. The colors transition without any noticeable abruptness or jarring nature. But we noticed while we were testing it out, like we shift to breathing which is basically just one color and it just kind of fades in and out of the same color and I'm going to apply breathing now. You notice when it fades out, it turns bright red suddenly before it fades out. It's not a problem with the halos that we're using because we've tried it before using the 3-pin direct to the motherboard 3-pin and the transitions were fine. But you notice here using the Deepcool RGB converter, there is a noticeable flash of red and so that you just do need to be aware of that that not everything might work as smoothly as it would if you just plug it in directly to your RGB header. So again, just a word of warning and we will post it here on YouTube. Any kind of weirdness that our users report and that we also discover in our own testing. So you're not into RGBQ, then you can skip this video. If you are interested in just adding a little bit of RGB to your setup, then the Phanteks halos and the Deepcool RGB converter might be the things you're looking for. Thanks for watching.
