Be quiet 600 pure base 2 pin fan help

MajorFoley

So looking at this image i have posted i can see sata power and 2 pin connector for the fans but i have no idea where the 2 pin fans go (which i think connect both rear and front fan). I'm using a X470 Asus prime Motherboard.

 I think they plug directly into the fans?

 

Literally the only video I could find was in German and the English auto translate wasnt super helpful. Maybe someone who speaks German can interpret?

You just connect the sata power to your Psu and the 2 pin to the fans you want to control. 

The actual controlling is done at the io area with a little switch that has 3 speeds, so nothing connects to the motherboard.

I ended up just leaving that cable out and plugged the sata power in, the speed controller at the front still works but i don't think the fans show in the BIOS

Yeah already just put in the power, i think the fans are already connected somewhere else so i dunno why that 2 pin is there

If I remember correctly the two preinstalled fans are plugged in from the factory and you have one additional fan header spare so that you can connect a third fan if you want to.

The fans won’t show up in the bios as you are controlling everything via the front panel.

hope that helps :P
