I have a 420 rad in push pull and my logic went like this.
Can i connect multiple fans to one header.
Such a splitter connects two.
So the motherboard asus b85m gamer i chose has only one fan header.
So i am assembling my pc for the first time and came in a bit of a glitch.
I ve been scouring the internet for an answer and could only find answers for standard rgb.
Use 83 of header rating to account for inrush current 1500 rpm fans.
So again using that typical 140mm 1250 rpm fan 0 14 amps.
Use 75 of header rating to account for inrush current.
My case supports 4 120 mm fans.
In fact there are a number of ways to do so.
Check the manual to see what current the fan header can give and compare it to the watt rating of the fans watts 12v amps.
Hello my motherboard has 1 rbg header.
The only problem is that the motherboard i have only had one argb header.
Basically the block you attach to the cpu has a pump installed this pump head is powered by connecting the sata capable and there s also what looks like a 3 pin female that appears to connect to a fan header the pump is also connected to your motherboard by an internal usb connection the pump head also has two places where you can.
I should mention i am planning on using a fan hub to connect all the fans to power and run them with pwm control.
Some high end boards will have one or mor 2a headers.
Is it possible to connect multiple argb to a single header with a splitter or something.
I am buying 5 new case fans 3 masterfan pro 120 air flow and 2 masterfan pro 120 air pressure fans.
Could i connect two 3 pin fans to the 3 pin header and two more to the 4 pin header.
Also my mobo only has one 4 pin cpu fan header one 4 pin system fan header and one 3 pin system fan header.
As far as splicing power and gnd together as long as the current draw of the 2 combined isnt more than the mobo can handle you will be fine.
To keep the headers safe and last longer and keep my mobo from frying.
Im trying to decide between fans ones with rgb the others with argb.
Cooler master states that the fans are compatible with my motherboard without an rbg controller but how do i connect them all.
1250 rpm fans.
From my understanding i can actually buy 3 pin fans they seem to be cheaper and use a splitter to connect them all to the 4 pin header on the motherboard.
First if you know the power ratings of your fans and of your motherboard you may be able to use a splitter such as the rosewill case fan pwm cable splitter.
However if they are identical fans monitoring one should reflect 2.
