Case fan splitter

James7176

Okay so here is my dilemma, I'm constructing a Ryzen build but most of the motherboards in the B350 Category only have 2 fan headers and I have got 5 fans for my case.

Furthermore, I'm building inside of the new Fractal Design Mini C (TG Edition) (My point here is that there is no 5.25" bays. Is there any affordable solutions to this? I've read that you shouldn't put more than 2 fans to a header with a splitter.

For example a 3.5" solution?

Thats a static supply for 6 fans. They will just all run at 100%

The one i linked connects to the MB and you'll be able to regulate them

Are your fans 3-pin (DC) or 4-pin (PWM)?  If any of them are 3-pin, then the PWM splitter will not work for you as it will give you no control over the fan speeds whatever and the fans will run at max RPMs all the time.  4-pin PWM fans will be fine however, as long as you have a 4-pin true PWM fan header to connect them to.  Just FYI, as you didn't say what type of fans you have.

The Asaka PWM splitter would be perfect for u :D

UK wise this was one i found.

This only works for 4-pin (PWM) fans by the way, and would be useless for 3-pin fans (unless you want them to run max RPMs 24-7), the kind of which a lot of cases include out of the box.
