Connecting 4-pin PWM fans to Zalman fan controller

[grumpybeard]

Hey guys,

I think I have made a gaff - bought a bunch of
Akasa AK-FN057 Apache Super Silent 120mm 4 pin PWM Fans.

Some of these I want to control with a Zalman ZM MFC1 controller, which has 3 pin fan connectors.

Will this work or have I just been duh!

Cheers!

Reassuring to think I havent chucked my money away!

The two CPU heatsink fans (2 Akasa Apache's) I plan to connect to the PWM header on the motherboard. Motherboard is Asus Rampage II and Im not sure how many fan headers are PWM - I've bought a couple of PWM splitters just in case I need em.

2 others will replace others that came statndard with case - and I'll connect to fan controller.

Thanks again!
