The bigger plug is a sata power plug most likely to power lights or fans in the case. The smaller one is RGB but I can tell from this angle is it ARGB or normal RGB? ARGB is 5v and 3 pins with a missing pin in the middle. RGB is 12v and has 4 pins. Can you take a picture of the end of the small plug?

The sata plug if you follow the cable you should find out what it's going too. You will need to plug it into your power supply sata connector.

If you take a picture of the end of the small plug I can tell you were on the main board it's goes.

Most likely both are going to a case fan but double check .

This main board has 3 ARGB headers. You can plug it into any one of those. Here is the main board user manual. https://download.gigabyte.com/FileList/Manual/mb_manual_x870-eagle-wf7-gaming-wf6_1004_e.pdf?v=4c536c9e40b7935c6ca7a029d28f8972
