Fans Compatibility
Hi all.
I own a Gigabyte B850 Aorus elite motherboard and I'm looking into using Asus Prime MR120 ARGB fans. In every description I've seen, they seem to work with ASUS Aurora software but nothing about other brands' software.
ASUS Prime MR120 ARGB Fan - Triple Pack｜Cooling｜ASUS Global
This fan comes with dual-sided lighting on the case and has a thickness of 28mm for excellent cooling performance.

Will they function perfectly with Gigabyte RGB software?
I think the answer is yes, it should work fine, but I'm a bit new to this and would really appreciate your guidance.
Thanks!

and grab the support document for the motherboard:

By examining the images, it becomes clear that each fan is linked to a cable featuring a standard 3-pin ARGB interface, while the motherboard provides three ports designed for such connectors. Simply plug the fans into these ports and they will activate with any software you install. In short, these connections are universal and compatible with common LED control programs. With this setup, Gigabyte offers the Gigabyte Control Center:

which includes the RGB Sync Control app to synchronize lighting. Alternatively, you can use other tools like OpenRGB or SignalRGB.
