Hey Guys,

I've recently bought 2 120mm Akasa Apache fans to use as intake. I didn't realise they used 4 pin PWM connectors (i do now).
Problem I'm having is my mobo (MSI P55-CD53) only has 1 pwm header (CPU fan using it) and 2x 3 pin headers.
Can you advise if i'd be best going for the Akasa splitter
Code:

or a fan controller
Code:

or even just connecting the fans to the 3 pin headers and forget about the pwn function all together??
Any advice would be helpful as I'm new to all this and currently at a crossroads.

Cheers
 
I was a little concerened running the CPU fan off a splitter cable but I suppose i'd effectively be doing that with a fan controller anyway, it'd just be bigger and have an LED display
