How can I control all 4 at the same time?
Can I use a splitter and connect all 4 to the same motherboard header?

Would that provide enough power?

its curious, i dont like those things that much, but they perform Ok, i just dont care having my fans controlled by motherboard and sensor shits or directly to power conector

Ok but using a "splitter" to connect 4 fans at one motherboard fan header?
I don't think that's a good idea.

It's just my case doesn't have any "bays" so no drive bays = complicated situation for fan controllers. What about if my four fans are connected to four motherboard fan headers. Can the motherboard sync them?

You could set up the same fan curve for each fan in the UEFI.

You will burn out the motherboard header because those fans will draw too much current over time. Buy a fan controller on frozencpu, xoxide, amazon.com, newegg.com or anyone that ships to your country.

I use a mcube fan controller it's ace I bought from the manufacturer , fully software tuneable to a crazy degree and case hideble.
I think something similar would work well.
Has enough power per header for 3 fans ,4 headers and all can be configured the same.

If I add 4 fans to my side panel , I can use all 4 of the headers on the board but the controller on the board is meh to me. I'd rather have a 3.5 or 5.25 Bay controller lol.

Last I knew Frozencpu went out of business.....they use to be in the same area as me

Oh i just seen they still have a web site but on their warehouse door it says they went out of Business.Edit I just called them and they say they are in business....and that they were never out of business. I also read just now read this

How to control four fans at once?

Sit them down to their game, sit a beer in front of them, and chips and dip, and bang, now they are under control.........................


Oh wait, the other kind of fans. :roll:

As most have stated, a fan controller. :rockout:

So guys I bought the silverstone fan hub. Allows me to connect 4 3pin fans to motherboard. But I cannot control fan speed cause they're not 4pin

What do I do?
This case doesn't support 5.25 bays so... Ideal solution would be something that can control 4x
3pin fans
