ASUS prime H310m-K Fan header ampere ?

Go to solution Solved by Origami Cactus,

It is fine.

0.4<0.5 if it was 0.5 then i would worry, but 0.4 is like 20% smaller than 0.5 .

Hello there ! it's my first post here on this forum ! ??

  • I have this mobo : ASUS PRIME H310M-K;
  • I want to add one more fan to my chassis;
  • I already have one in the back (exhaute) and that's all ;
  • To add an other fan, i'am using a fan spliter, so i will be able to plug 2xFans in one Fan Header;
  • The problem the total aperage of the 2 fans is : 0.24A+ 0.16A = 0.4A and in the manual i found this (Image below) :

  • It is said that the CPU_FAN connector can't go beyond 0.5A !

So correct me if i'am wrong, pluging a Fan Spliter with 2 Fans and total of 0.4AP will be all good ?

Or i have to change something concidering that 0.4A is very very close to the  limits (0.5A)

 

Ps : i don't think i can plug this one additional fan to the PSU because i don't find the Molex Adapter for it,so i guess this means that the PSU is probably using 100% of her capacity

spliter is in parallel, both fans will get what they need.

if are afraid, add a 0.5A fuse

"0.24A+ 0.16A" this is also assumed the fans running at max speed

you could also trust power surge protection from mobo, any way power from fan header cant really break anything

What about running with 2x0.24A + 0.16A = 0.64A
