Fan Connector....

[Daviiidd]

Okay, so i have some question.. is it possible to connect more fan i mean if you don't have any 3/4 pin left on your motherboard

 

and how do i extend short fan cable such as the Corsair SP 120mm  

 

Thanks...

If you don't have any 3/4PIN headers on your motherboard, you can connect your fans using 3PIN - Molex adapters. This means your fans will be running at 12V (100%) all the time. To extend your fan cables, you can buy 3pin - 3pin fan extensions.

Phobya offered splitters 1 to 4 ...

usb fan controllers Linus has one dont remember the name or a front panel fan controller

So It mean Is possible to connect 3 fan with 3 pin connector, for example one side of the cable has 3 pink and other side has 3 cable each one has 3 pin right ? like in the picture ....

Hard to decipher exactly what you're asking; however, i presume you mean that is it possible to connect 3 fans to one 3pin header - as the picture shows? If that is what you're asking, then yes. It is possible.

I suggest that you get a fan speed controller for your 5.25 in bay or get a splitter.

[rossi94]

These splitters will work, but your mainboard has to drive more ampere over them, don't forget about that.

You can use something like this. Next step is a fan controller as someone mentionrd it before

Yeah Exactly That what i meant To Connect 3 fan Into One 4 pin cable... but how do the asus xpert

 Software will know that i connected 3 fan into one 3 pin and change their RPM...

I think Fan Xpert will either not work controlling the 3 fans or they will be all running the same speed and the fans will be running on the same fan curve. Check your fan current ratings on your motherboards and fans to see if the header supports 3 fans.

That's wrong .. fans have 3 cables (pwms 4) 1 ground, 1 power, and 1 speed mesure. These splitters just take one speed for all 3, so it should be alright. It's just important, that the power your mainboard can deliver is hight enough.

[Daviiidd]

Hmm, that sound difficult, maybe like the other people here Mentioned, all the 3 fan connected to one 3 pin will work same RPM but i'm not sure if the one 3 pin connector will handily 3 fan on it though

[rossi94]

Yes, depends on the fans and mainboards output strength ... you can calculate it by the specs
