So a while back ago I had bought a CLC 280 when my corsair H100 started to fail and it was gonna cost me as much to RMA as to buy a new one.    I had plugged it in as a replacement and just went on my way but recently i wanted to sync up the colors and do adjustments but the application for it doesnt work.  When i was looking over the information on it I noticed i didnt have a cable, I never had it in the box since i plug in all cables and since its been a while i dont have the receipt.  
I need to find the usb cable that plugs into the block so i can do the cooler controls instead of it being on auto.  Where can it if anyone knows?  Didnt seem like i could order that wire on evga when i spoke to them and didnt have the receipt for it.
 
Thanks for any help!

I'm pretty sure it uses the exact same one as the Corsair.

You should have two. One for each CPU AIO you have. You lost both?

from what I remember its only one connector needed for the bottom part to USB internal header. The other connects to the Fan Header

What I mean is, he has TWO AIO, they each have the cable. Meaning he's lost both, one from each kit.

Im usually quite good at connecting all cables especially if theres an open slot on most items i pick up.  My guess is the cable wasnt there when i purchased it?  When i build a comp i keep all the component boxes i buy in the case box and when i went through it I couldnt locate the cable.  *shrug*
I did reach out to Evga themselves but the customer support guy wasnt very helpful and i clearly couldnt just buy one from evga.

The linked cable is a micro-USB to 9 pin USB header and won't work. The EVGA block uses a mini-USB to 9 pin USB header. Mini-USB was a thing back in the late 2000's, so thanks Asetek/EVGA for not modernizing. 

An Amazon search doesn't show a compatible cable on the first few pages.
Alternatively, you can:
Convert the 9 pin USB header to USB-A: https://www.amazon.com/Duttek-2-Pack-Female-Dupont-Motherboard/dp/B06Y5C7DKH
Use a standard USB-A to mini-USB cable: https://www.amazon.com/CERRXIAN-9Inch-Cable-Charge-2-Pack/dp/B01N5PHSJE/
 
This is a pita and probably not long enough. I can't imagine EVGA cannot send you one, it's under warranty for 5 years!
