NZXT Phantom 530 Fan Controller + Fans position

[Hosam70]

Hello all
I'm about to buy NZXT phantom 530 and I have questions about the case:

1- Is the fan hub designed to be connected to the power supply? If so how can it be connected?
2- can I replace the front 200mm fan with 2x120mm fan and place the replaced 200mm at the top of the case?

Thanks

Fan Hub is actually acting like molex. Case manual was not of help in this regard. In my understanding it will have one output for fan header and the other for power cable connection. I'm still checking it.

You can mount 2/3 120mm or 1 140mm fan on top and can mount 200m on top.

Dear finally go the answer. there two cable coming from this fan hub. One is standard power cable to be connected to the power cable coming out from the PSU and the other is fan header cable to be plugged in the mobo.

Hi easy lover do u have this case? If there are 2 cables comming out of the fan hub (one molex and one 4pin to connect to the mobo) then do you have to connect the 4pin to the cpu fan or you can connect it to any 4pin connector to the mobo? Also where the cable from the case controller (the one in the top of the case that control the fans) goes?

[strike]Sorry for late reply. 4 pin or 3 pin, regardless, connect it on the motherboard fan header. [/strike]

oh.. on my search of this case i found out that the fan hub is connected to the psu and the fan controller on the top of the case...so no cables from the fan hub is connected on the mobo....

Let me check it again for you and I'll get back.

ok thaks

ok. checked. it is basically a molex connector cable with 4 pin header at one end and standard 4 pin power connector. four pin header needs to go in the hub from the top side (check manual) and 4 pin standard power connector needs to be connected with standard 4 pin peripheral power connector from PSU. Hopefully, this would help.

Ok i see... so no cables from the fan hub are connected to the mobo. the fan hub is connected to the psu and to the fan controller on the top of the case...oh that is so great thank u a lot

On the 530 I just built there is a molex wire that ties into the fan speed control switch, and it acts as a main power source for all the fans. I just ran all my fan connectors to the fan hub mounted in the back of the case, then plugged the molex coming from the fan switch to the PSU and voila...all my fans are fully operational
