The pmw splitter

[firsttimelucian69]

can someone explain to me what is this and what do we use it for in easy words please

Read product description. In short, PWM signal/source from CPU, control all other PWM fans in your system/chassis and ramp up or die down with the flux of CPU temps or a single temp source.

PWM fans are necessary here since 3 pin fans are voltage controlled/regulated. Using a 3 pin fan on a PWM splitter would send them to run at full speed since the two wires they will connect/plug into are actuall the 12v pins - meaning full speed.

I assume you mean PWM splitter and not PMW? It's to connect more fans to a single PWM enabled fan connector.

So let me check if i understood it correctly we use that thing so we can set all 4 of our fans on the same speed and not one of them to work on 1500 rpm the other one on 1200 and so on

Yes. It's for those who have more fans than their mobo has fan connectors.

No, your mobo has 6 fan connectors in total. 1 for CPU, 1 for either pump or fan and 4 for system fans. No need to get a splitter. Also if your fans are voltage controlled and not PWM controlled, a simple 3 pin fan splitter will do.
