Hi all,
I have this heatsink and the fan to go with it,and i also bought another fan for it.I also have 2x fans for my case.
I also own this motherboard,with one 4pin "CPUFAN1" header and two 3pin "SYSFAN1" & "SYSFAN2" headers.
I recently bought a 4-pin(male) y-cable that gives 4 4-pin(female) outputs.
So here is what i get.Every single fan is PWM,and when connected to any 3pin header,it will work on 100% load,as expected.When any of them is connected on the 4pin "CPUFAN1" header,they will work as intended,having control and sensor readings.
But when i plug the y-cable onto motherboard's "CPUFAN1" header,things get a little bit tricky.Out of the 4 4-pins outputs,only the first has sensor reading,whis is also expected.
Anyways all fans work as intended,except coolmaster's one.That is,it will work normally when adapted to y-cable,but becomes uncontrollable as soon as a second or third fan comes into y-cable.The second or third fan,is still controllable,even though coolermaster's fan is not.I have installed coolermaster fan,on all the outputs of y-cable with no difference at all,except sensor reading at first output.
What is "wrong" with coolermaster's fan?
Thank you in advance.
P.S.I think rest of hardware components are kind of irrelevant but i will provide them asap if needed
