you can also control the card via software...If for some reason you want to use asus aura (I wouldn't recommend it, because the software is really great), then you have to connect the card to the 3 pin rgb header on the main board.sst you have to connect the card to the 3 pin rgb header on the main board, cable should be included with the card, the connector should be on the back of the pcb, where it has the hole in the backplate, on mainboard the header should be on top next to the 24pin atx connector, just next to the voltage converter for the ram
