[SOLVED] Cable required to activate Corsair SP120 Pro ?

[hadiahmed29]

Hi guys so last week I had 10 fans installed in my system but the motherboard ran out of ports for it.
The computer guy told me that there is a specific cable which will be required to activate all the fans
I'll be attaching the male cable below he said he needs the female version of it with 2 wires in and 1 out which will be plugged in motherboard
What are these cables called?

Thank you

He is suggesting you use a cable splitter but don't get more than 3 fans per MB connector.
Better solution would be something like this, a powered hub

No. that's for fan motors only. For(a)RGB lights you need appropriate controller but lights use much less power so you can daisy chain those or use Y splitters.

He said that the Sata cable would power on your RGB but not the fan motors so I guess I need this fan controller to run my fans and use Sata cable for RGB lightning right?

SATA cable will only help if case has own (A)RGB controller and needs the power.

He is saying that since i have Corsair Sp fans then Commander core XT would be required to run the fans and RGB all together

That would be ideal.
