Inelastic Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 Are the PWM connectors just to use the mobo headers to control the fans or is there any power supplied with them? Reason I ask is that I want to splice two of them into one fan header since my mobo only has two fan headers and I'm wondering if that's fine or if I'm going to burn out the header. I assume all the power needed is supplied through the sata power plug, but I just want to be sure. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThermalMike Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Hi, Thanks for the question. The PWM cables for each of the 3 sides is just for PWM control of those 3 ports. You do not have to use them, but it is an option if you want to control fan speeds through your MB Bios. If you plan to use other products (not fans) you do not need it. And if you want to mix/match on the 1 side, it should not effect the other non-fan products if you use it. Splicing them can be tricky if you reduce the signal to far, but that will be a mod you will have to do on your own to see what results you get. Just understand the concern on voiding warranty is all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
