I just brought 2 Case fans coolermaster sickleflow V2 RGB. It has 3 connections 1 pwm and 2 4 pins RGB connectors one female and 1 male. I want to know if I can connect in series the RGB connectors male and female of the next fan. I already have one female RGB connected to my motherboard RGB. The second fan is only connected to the pwm the fan RGB connectors are free right now.
 
Solution
make sure your fan settings are set to PWM and not DC in your BIOS. The documentation with the fans should tell you how many fans you can daisy chain together.

Yes, that's called "Daisy chaining)

Thanks for your help everything is working fine now my fans didn't came with much documentation. Just had to make sure I didn't need the splitter for the daisy chain on the RGB connectors.
