Imgur gallery of blown capacitor Hi all, thank you for reading. I recently turned on my workstation and heard a loud pop and a smell like fireworks, turned off the machine and unplugged everything. Quick visual inspection of the motherboard revealed a capacitor that blew its cap right off. I...

Hi, I've just gotten 6 sets of NF-F14 @ 3000RPM PWM but was wondering if I could use 3 fan splitter cable per motherboard header in my Gigabyte Auros Elite b550? I know 3000RPM is overboard but I got them second hand and they were really really cheap so I decided to get them (12 bucks each)...

I got a new case and it came with what I assume is a fan controller since all the fans were connected to it I tried plugging in the cable connected to the port labeled MB but it doesnt match the fan header on my motherboard I have a b450m h from gigabyte View: https://imgur.com/a/NU5mAd7

Cpu fan header low voltage that causes my motherboard to not start. I tried to connect the 4 pin cpu fan to the 3 pin system fan and it has high rpm while on the cpu fan header it has low. I think this is what causes my motherboard to not beep. What could be the fix?

I'm re-homing an HP Elitedesk 800 G1 sff into a new case, but it only has one CPU fan header and no chassis fan headers. However, under closer inspection there is one spot for a chassis fan header on the motherboard, but it doesn't actually have the header installed, just bare pads. photos...

Hi guys. Yet another issue with my system. Months ago, this forum helped me achieve a workaround for a burnt out CPU fan header. However, the problem once again appeared overnight. My third fan header on the MB has burnt out. Only this time, it was accompanied by some new issues. These include...

Hello, I have the AUSS ROG STRIX Z 490-F and is planning to upgrade my cooling a little, but I am wondering how (I am really new to this and there is probably a really simple solution how) how do I get 9 NF-P12s in a single case when the motherboard has only 2 headers? and also if there is...

I am new to building computers but i know that they are cheaper than buying a pre built one so i decided to build one this time around but i am kinda confused about my motherboards fan headers. My motherboard an MSI B450M PRO-M2 MAX only has 1 fan header but my case a sharkoon pure steel comes...

How do you differentiate between a "hybrid" fan header and a "PWM" fan header? I was looking at the MOBOs on gigabyte website where they do not mention the type of fan header. So how do I identify it visually?

Hey guys! First of, sorry for my english, isn't my first language. So I just bought a new PC and its very cool. I just wanted to install a third fan, but I'm afraid that it will fry the motherboard. Both preinstalled fans are together 0.32 amps. I'd like to buy an other fan which is 0.37...

Hello there! I was wondering if I need to connect my AIO to either the CPU fan header or Pump fan header. Listed below is the AIO and MB I have. ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280 MSI MAG X570 TOMAHAWK WIFI ATX AM4 Motherboard AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 3.7 GHz 12-Core Processor

I am planning to buy 2 12v scythe kaze flex pwm 120mm fans, but I took a momento to take a look at my MOBO manual about it's fan headers. According to this print screen I took from the manual: https://prnt.sc/uws3nr. The CHA_FAN headers have a +5V pin. I don't know what +5v pin means, I want to...

I want to connect 2 fans (0.10A each) in 1 fan header, but I don't have the fan cable splitter... Can I cut the 2 fan cables and put them in 1 connector? Will it work without the splitter?

Currently, my H100i Pro is being cooled with the two stock fans (ML120). I am looking to get another fan for push/pull setup but I am not sure if there is going to be a problem related to the total amperage for the fans. My motherboard is Gigabyte Z390 Auros Elite, it does not state in the...

Hi, i would like to ask the community if it is safe to have an unused and open fan header on my splitter. My current argb/fan splitter is 1 to 4, however, I only need to use 2 out of those 4 headers on the splitter. is it okay to leave the other two unused?

Good morning! I have a question about the Phanteks Enthoo 719 Case and was hoping someone might have some insight or tips on how to use the included FAN HUB with it. I haven't build a PC since the AMD 8150 so it's time for an upgrade. Back then I wasn't interested in RGB because it wasn't as...

So I have Masterbox TD500, yes there are better cases, but i have what I have. It has 3 fans running on molex (as the cables were a tad short to reach the headers on their own), I found a 3 way splitter in my things, it would allow me to get a fan curve to let the computer run a little quieter...

Hello everyone! I've embarked on an interesting quest. I have recently received an Alienware Alpha R1 i7 4765T version. They're decent at best of a device but struggled with thermal throttling issues. So I've decided to do something about that. I'm doing some testing before I drop 16GB of...

I bought some cheap 120mm led case fans off eBay and connected it to one system fan header using fan splitters. so far it works fine in pwm mode, but in dc mode the fan leds blink like it stops for a sec and turns back on which made me worried if the fans require more power than what the header...

Title mostly says it all but when i do not have the 4 pin cpu power connector plugged into the motherboard the pc starts up and everything comes on. Once i connect the CPU power connector to the motherboard, the pc will start up and run for about 5-10 seconds and then shuts off again and will...

I've got a dedicated 24/7 Windows 10 computer I used as a weather station. I'm thinking of replacing it with a new computer.

Hello everyone, I have a PC of mine which I refer to as "budget high-end" as in that I buy a part/upgrade a part every once a year or so. Now I got a big GPU upgrade last year, very happy, and definitely an upgrade from my previous Sapphire Radeon 6770 to a Gigabyte GTX 770. Although this...
