Hello everyone. I need your advice about fans. Already bought a motherboard ASRock Fatality B450 gaming K4 and Midi-tower case with 4 vents. The problem is that all vents have 3-pin and Molex ports. Mobo has 3 ports for 4-pin vents, power supply - 2 Molex. Recently heard that some motherboards...

Hello, I'm wondering if it is possible to connect a temperature sensor to molex or 12, 5 PINs ? It has a Line and Neutral lines out, also it has to be powered by 4-24 V DC In that case, can I plug them directly into molex or sata or even Motherboard pins? Is it save for my PS/MB? Thanks in advance.

So my mobo only has 2 fan headers. 1 is for my cpu but I still got 3 more fans to go. the stock fans i got has a molex socket in the middle and ends in a 3-pin. This might sound stupid but can I connect the 3 fans through their molex sockets back to back (like the human centipede) and then plug...

Hey guys I found this fan splitter , and I have some questions about it. What will happen If I connect 6 PWM fans via this adapter? Do all fans run at same speed because they get same PWM signal? If one fan's speed increases due to heat, speed of all other connected fans will also increase...

Is sata cable recommended for case fan or molex connector? Or what is the common way to go about case fan connector? I just hate molex connector, it takes a while to get it pushed in and sata connectors snapped right in.

Hello, This is probably a very rookie question but I'd rather ask the experts instead of blowing up my PC! I purchased a Thermaltake View 32 Case and the case comes with 3 pre-installed RGB Fans from Thermaltake that are all connected to an RGB Hub / Switch. So far all good... Although off...
