one fan will give you 3 different fan speeds with an inline resistor and the other one is automatically controlled by the motherboard.

Explained in swedish.

 

PWM modellen gör så att du kan välja hastighet själv med hjälp av moderkortet.

Den andra har 3 hastigheter, annars är det samma fläkt.

If you're getting them for your radiator get the PWM version.
