Hello everyone,
I know the question regarding 3 pin vs 4 pin has been asked and answered numerous times, but I wasn't able to find an answer to my question as in the topic.
My motherboard spec says that I have one 4-pin cpu fan connector, and four 4-pin chassis fan connectors.
Now my CPU temperature is on the high side, so I was looking to buy a cpu fan/heatsink that has 2 fans.
I am aware that 4-pin connectors are PWM that allows motherboard to control fan speed depending on temperature. But I just want to make sure if there is zero difference between the 4-pin cpu fan connector and 4-pin chassis fan connector( in which case I can simply use one of the chassis fan connector to connect my second cpu fan) or if there are significant differences that would require using a splitter on the only 4-pin cpu fan connector on my motherboard.
Thanks in advance for your help.
