Hi to all,
I have a question about fan splitter cables, simple cheap little things but I've never used them before.
I am about to buy a Fan Controller, (This One), as my case has 8 case fans and they are the Scythes Gentle Typhoons, a few of the 3000rpm version and a few of the 5400rpm, so they are really loud. At the moment using software I can't turn them down to below 40% which means even when idling the PC is still quite loud.
Anyway, I have checked that the fan controller I'm going to buy can handle at least 2 of these fans per channel, which it can, but now I'm going to need some fan splitters. Maybe these: --> Link <--
But I'm not 100% how these work, because 1 of the connectors only has 2 wires, red and black with the yellow missing, does this mean that even with a fan controller 1 fan would be voltage controlled and speed up or down when I adjust it and the other fan wouldn't, i.e. it would spin at full tilt all the time???
So would I need a fan splitter that has 3 wires to "both" connectors???
I've never used these fan splitters before so I'm not sure how they work exactly.
Would really appreciate some help.
Thanks to all
