I checked the manual of the Z370i and it shows a 4 pin connector but only 3 pins used. As an addressable header, this sounds right. Non-addressable headers require all 4 pins.
I think you need a non-addressable header for the fan frames.
Addressable = 5v, non addressable = 12v.
I suspect you will be limited to adding an addressable LED strip as I'm not aware of any addressable FANs. (Doesn't mean there are none, but I haven't come across any. But I haven't looked either :))
I am surprised that a standard RGB header isnt included while an addressable is.

"Thats why i was asking if anyone knew of an Aura-compatible hub that doesn't require the 4-pin non-adressable header that is compatible with Aura."
The question is, where would you plug this in?
If it plugged into the addressable header, it would need to be a hub that would take perhaps the first addressable LED output from the header and apply that value to the whatever is attached. Not a bad idea for a product, but doubt there is one. Hopefully someone else has a recommendation.

As a fellow Z370-I owner, I have had this exact same problem, I have a bunch of 4 pin rgb stuff that I want to connect, but I don't want to have to run a separate program to do it. I want aura to do everything.
Now it took a fair bit of searching, and I'm still not 100% sure if it works (still waiting on a few components), but there is a chip which will do what we need.
The chip is the ws2811S made by adafruit (or at least sold by them), there is a pdf of info if you google that, but basically it takes the data input and changes it to an r, g, and b output. I have put a circuit together, but I haven't been able to test it yet.
