Pwm hub question

[jonathanlin]

I plan on building my first pc and it's going to be a mini itx. I'm thinking about adding a pwm hub so I can improve airflow. Am I able to add the hub without having to tweak any settings and having all my fans run at stock speeds? I don't have a interest in over clocking, thank you!

Correct, plug and play. The fans will be automaticly adjusten to the motherboard sensor from the 1 pwm fan you extend

I'm looking to get either the Asus b250i or Asus z270i. Both of these motherboards only have 2 fan headers from what I can see and only one of the headers support pwm, which is the CPU fan header. How would I run this connection? Thank you!!!

Connect the cpu cooler to the cpu fan. CONNECT THE hub to the other pwm header

Only the CPU header supports pwm, the other header is a cha header.

thats also a pwm fan, most itx cases only have got 1 fan

Why do you think the chassis fan connector doesn't support PWM? I'm looking at pictures of both those mobos right now, and the chassis fan header has 4 pins, which means PWM.

I was looking at the manual online and I only saw pwm on the CPU header. So as long as there's 4 pins there's support for pwm? After I connect the pins I don't need to connect the 12v sata power anymore correct? I'm still learning, thank you!!!
