NZXT H200i Question

Hello, I want to put my push/pull kraken x62 into my new H200i build. I know it will fit perfectly, however my question is regarding fans. The included fan hub only allows for 3 channels at 10W each. Can I plug a fan splitter into the NZXT fan hub? I want to be able to control all my fans RPM through CAM software (4 fans radiator, 2 exhaust) so should I purchase a better fan hub and remove the included one? Any work-arounds? thank you

You probably don't need a push pull set up in the first place m8...that's highly overkill.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Overclocked ryzen 2700x so I want as much cooling as possible. Plus I think it looks pretty cool

5W per fan is fine, look at the watt rating for the fans

Perfect, So in that case I can use a PWM fan splitter plugged into the included fan hub and still access fan speed correct?

Correct.

 

Most fan hubs dont use the motherboard header for the power for the fans, just the PWM signal. They usually have a separate SATA (or MOLEX if they're old) power connectors that go directly to the power supply, to be able to power many fans, which simply get the split PWM or Voltage signal.
