Question Help needed for. Connecting RGB fans to one connector

[Clarencej395]

Can someone please point me into thw direction of where to find a 3 pin splitter cable for my RGB Fans I recently added two Fans to my PC. I have two slots on my control board for my Fans but only one left for the RGB. I can't find anything anywhere and I bought the wrong cable already and have to return it.

Nobody can give you any kind of answer if you DON'T Include what brand, model of fans and controller you are working with.

Are your fans 4-pin +12V RGB, 3-pin +5V ARGB or some other connector?

For reference, 3-pin ARGB on the left, 4-pin RGB on the right;

Some other type its 3 pins but instead of missing one it goes straight across. Ike a single line without skipping a pin

Then you have proprietary fan connector, which works only with the included RGB hub (and remote as well, if it came with a remote). You can't connect these kinds of fans to your MoBo.

Btw, fan make and model is? (Maybe there is adapter for it.)

They also said it may be tricky to find a splitter cable.

With this thing, all you have, is what that controller board is able to provide.

The image comes from a topic, that has the very same issue,

And thus far, no solution has been found, since there is no easy way out.

This is what i'd call a "poor man's RGB", since what you have with this, is one, rainbow profile, where you can not change the profile, nor control the LEDs in any other way.

Now, it is possible that some other brand adapter might work with the proprietary 3-pin RGB header, but without knowing the exact pinout (what each pin does), it's dangerous just connect it and power it on.

Best course of action is:

1. Be happy with what little you have.
2. Or scrap the fans and buy proper fans, that have the industry standard 3-pin or 4-pin RGB header.
