Problem with Y pin 4 pin conector

MasterLow

Hey guys I just received the y pin 4 pin splitter so i can use 1 fan header and 2 CPU fans but on the ends of 1 of the 4 pins there is only 3 pins!!!  post.cgi?id=attach:30:20545:370:2

Is this a problem??? because i want to connect the nactua nh-d15 to this cable so i can hook it up to my motherboard which has only 1 CPU fan header

I cant just yet because im in the process of receiving my new cou fan cooler. By the way I edited the post so this should be a bit more helpful. the cable is the exact same one that i have and the exact same missing pin

yeah dont worry about it, even if it had the pin only one of the fans transmits the rpm's to the motherboard

Oh so youre saying that 4 pins transmit the rpms to the motherboard but since there are 2 fans only one fan needs the extra pin because thats whats transmitting the rpms to the motherboard? while the other just rotates and or syncs with the first fan transmitting the rpms?
