do all case fan are gonna work in a fan hub as long as it has 3/4 pin?

[ninjaboyxd629]

im about to buy this case fan and you can see the 3 pin there the seller said it wont work i said why but he didnt reply yet 

can you tell me if all fans will work on a fan hub as long as it has 3/4 pin? if itsnt gonna work pls tell me why i know that theres a molex there but my psu only have 2 molex and im gonna buy 6 fans for my case so only 2 will work my mobo have 2 fan header but its the same as fan hub right? because fan hub is just a fan header but you can connect many fans

i would no buy that that is not standard. ether there powered by 3 pin fan header or molex and dose not have rgb/argb in it or it hooks up to a diffrent rgb controller. i no Barrow uses this conetor on there rgb/argb stuff.

 

if its infect an argb connector then plunging it in to your mb fan header will fry the fan or the mb! i would get %100 comfermations on what the 3 pin dose and molex before going forward

sometime really cheap fans that have "rgb/argb leds" that get its power from the fan power when the fan rpm changes so dose the led brightness. i no i got a roswell case that had this and switch that had the leds and fan to it. there was off low nad hi. off shout off the led (probly below the 5v) low was dim leds and slow fan and hi was full fan speed and full led brightness.

well molex power would be full power and the 3pin if its power for the fan and led then that can be voltage controlled by the mb bios. it dose not have a 4pin fan header connector so its not pwm controlled. so pwm hubs wont work. 3pin fan splitters should work i guess. its just odd that it had both on the fan back then you could use a molex to 3pin adapter.

 

on the fan the molex can be plug in to each other hooking all to an molex

 

hmm it could be 3pin for the fan and molex for the led power im guessing it would be a signal color.

it says here 

 that a 3 pin fan will work on a 4 pin header isnt it the same as this?

3 pin can work on a 4 pin fan header yes but it wont be pwm controlled

im just gonna wait for someone who knows the answer

I assume you have molex connections on the psu, so it’s gonna work either way. So it shouldn’t matter right?

Unless there’s a specific reason you want those fans compared to the millions out there. 
Even if it doesn’t have pwm, if the mobo has dc control and the fan is wired that way, you can still easily control it.

Okay, so reverse image search found two possibilities for this fan:

 

https://shopee.ph/YGT-FAN-DOUBLE-RING-LED--DIAMOND-120MM-i.60584520.8002479612

 

https://www.carousell.ph/p/ygt-dual-ring-diamond-rainbow-ly-1225m12s-dc-12v-0-2a-120mm-1034101656/

 

So, with that connector (on either) you can't control the fan speed, or RGB.  It's going to be Full Speed, and the LEDs will do whatever they're programmed to do.

Yea I don’t see the issue. Doesn’t matter if you only had one molex. It’s the same amount of power.
