Where to plug in 4 case PWM fans?

Andr3w · 20 Aug 2023 at 20:56

Looking at the Lancool 3 case and a Gigabyte B650 motherboard.

The case comes with 4 PWM fans, there doesn’t seem like there are enough 4pin ports on the motherboard to support this.

How does connecting the case fans to the mobo work in this situation?

Ah thanks, so how exactly do they work.

Does that controller plug into the MOBO and PSU then all PWM case fans plug into that controller? Do you just sit the controller inside the case somewhere?

According to the techpowerup review...

3-way PWM splitter cable included for front fans

Ah cool, so they’d all plug into a splitter then the splitter into the PWM port on mobo? Makes sense.

Yeah LianLi have some good ones where you can literally hook up three fans to eachother magnetically and have only one cable for three fans.

That’s useful! Think I’ll go with the Lancool3 case then
