My first ever build

Hey!

 

i’ve just finished up my first build for my big brother. Everything works as it should except fan control.

 

i’ve installed 8 thermaltake Riing 12 fans onto the case and connected them to a 9 port sata hub wich i’ve placed on the back panel. But i cant control the RPM’s on any of the fans because thermaltake’s software is saying it cant find the fan controller, and gives me the error code: H_0x0001. 

 

I’ve gotten 2 boxes that can look like a fan control with 4 switches on the bottom(1, 2, 3 and 4) but i cant figure out how to link that box to the sata hub.

 

current specs:

 

Motherboard: Asus Maximus X Hero

GPU: Gefore RTX 2080

CPU: i7-8700k 

m.2 ssd: 250GB Samsung Evo 970

HDD: 2TB exos from seagate

Already have the fan controller that followed with the fans. But as they only have ports for 3 fans, i’m not really sure on how i can connect the fan controller to the SATA hub.

because SATA hub dont exist, I think you're calling it the wrong name.

PWM is pulse width modulation, it's how motherboards control fan speed.

Uh, thats what it said on thermaltake’s page. But its a box that gives u more ports for 4 pin connects (like fans) to it if u don’t have enough ports on ur motherboard.

 

this is what we have https://www.thermaltake.com/mobile/productinfo.aspx?id=C_00003143

Well, the controllers i got only have 3 4 pin slots for 3 fans. So is it possible to connect the fan controller to the 4 pin hub with 9 slots?

that 9 plug hub is a SATA powered LED sync hub, it controls lighting but as far as I know, not fan speed. Maybe the two other boxes are fan speed controllers, not sure.

While I don't understand why PWM headers are there, that is not for fans. maybe those headers are for fans, but then you can only have 3 while 1 is for mobo signal. Overall, not the thing you might want to have. Instead, this is for fans https://www.thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00002702
