Back again! Finally getting back the my wife’s build and I was sort of wondering. I have a total of 6 fans outside of the GPU. The cooler is already in. Thanks for this vid!
@@PE4Doers it has four fan sockets, so I’m going to have to split them. Bought a three way splitter yesterday. For now I’ve got the cpu cooler plugged into cpu fan 1, the rear exhaust fan, and two intake fans. Hopefully that keeps air pressure positive.

Weird in my imagination i never added it to a motherboard until seeing it irl and practically working near it worrying if I'm gonna need to do anything with it. Pretty cool hobby you lads have
It sounds like you are referring to the ''Ear I/O Panel'. Where all the rear USB connectors, the Network Connectors, the Sound, Wireless etc. all connect. Not all motherboards have that plastic cover with the attached I/O shield place that snaps into the rear of the case.

DO NOT plug a 3-pin ARGB into a mother 4-pin RGB connector - that will burn out the device ARGB. Check to see if your motherboard also has the 3-pin RGB connector - sometimes called the Rainbow connector.
My motherboard has a sys_fan1 and cpu_fan1 there alot of connectors at the bottom of my board how would I know what connector is for fans there is one connector that says JCOM1 and there's another that says JFP2 and JSMB1 and JTPM1
Take a carefull look at your motherbard manual to make sure (nearly 100% can be found online these days). The Fan connectors usually have 4-pins (some older than 10-years have only three - DDR3 and below). The Fan connectors also have a plastic guide on one site that mates with a slot on the Fan cable (which I believe I show in the video). You can also see much more detail on doing all this in my 'Full' video at: ruclips.net/video/Af77ZmLpNcI/видео.html
How is this cable with the white plastic at the end and colorful wires called? I don't have such a cable. And today a guy from the store with the components sold me the wrong cable.
You will need to get a Fan hub that is connected to one of the motherboard USB connectors and some support software needs to be loaded into Windows (or which ever operating system you happen to have).
Generally a hub is only needed if the connectors or type of fans (RGB or ARGB) are not compatible with your motherboard. However, ARGB fans are not all the same, so non-compatibility is quite common.
Hello,I have a question. If the casing fans are Argb do they carry 2 cable connectors together? Like- 1 for ARGB & 1 for PWM/Dc for controlling fan speed? How people control both Fan speed & Argb lights together otherwise?
In every one I've seen have two separate cables. The connectors are quite different and you shouldn't be able to plug the wrong one into the wrong connector. Caution however, you can connect a 3-pin ARGB (5v) cable into a standard RGB connector (12v), which would most likely burn out the control ARGB logic in the ARGB fan.
@PE4Doers Thank you. Appreciate it. I was thinking of building a new pc. Deciding to go with a Gigabyte B550M DS3H mobo. Their website says it has 2 Argb port & 3 RGB. So, i was a bit confused about how people control the fan speed separately. Also, i think it has "3 fan headers" according to their website. Hopefully, if i buy a case with 4 pre-installed Argb fans, they will be able to connect both fan speed & Argb lights thru mobo software.
Yo im planning to add more 4 or 5 fans to my pc, but my psu doesnt has any additional wires for fans. But my motherboard has two 4 pin pwm. But theres alrdy 2 fans connected in it. My motherboard also has molex 4 pin header. Should i use molex to 3 pin splitter cable or 3 pin to 3 pin splitter cable (i should plug the 3 pin in my 4 pin pwm header)
You will definitely need to get some splitters. The ones I use are 1 one-to-three splitters, where the first one becomes PWM and the other two become 3-pin DC fans (even if they are PWM.
i have an important question. I want to get a case that has 4 rgb case fans, does the particular motherboard support up to 4 fans? and will all have rgb lighting?
Those are available, but mostly when you get a Full Tower. Generally a mid-tower comes with two Fans (RGB if you buy a particular model), but then it does not cost that much to buy two (or three) more. That's how I usually do it.
Every hub is different, however if they connect to the motherboard, they uually connect to one of the motherboard standard connectors. I would check in the hub manual to determine which one.
Some 'older' motherboards do not have Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) available on their Fan connectors (or withing the electronic logic on such motherboard). PWM allows Finer control of the Fan Speed and is much more responsive to changes of temperature - a highly desirable feature.
I have the same mother board and I connected all the leds but they’re not matching colors and they don’t show up on my pc as being connected even tho they turn on and actually spin
I have seen that when there are different brand Fans, but based on the generally circuitry used for most name-brand motherboards, the three colors come off the same controller with only the power driver being different (that can add at most a 20ns phase shift).
You would need to either slit the Fan headers with a cable made for that, or connect them directly to the power supply, and there are many ways to do that, including using a separate Fan hub.
No, don't do that. If only three pins are accessible, then you have ARGB fans (that only 5v supplies). If you plug them into a socket, or another fan that has 4-pins (which is 12v RGB) you will likely burn something out.
IMO it would be easier if you point the cable, name the slot, plug it, so users can see exactly there it goes since there-s plenty of similar slots that may confuse ppl. Over all gj!
Usually 'Yes' (as long as the fan connector has that plastic guide. The only problem is that it will not be PWM controlled, only DC, which is not as controllable by the motherboard.
Hopefully your motherboard has either a 3-pin ARGB or a 4-pin RGB connector. Make sure you don't plug it into the wrong one however, since that could blow out the RGB on you Fan (or whatever you have RGB on that you are looking to get to work).
I would be VERY cautious using those fans. With only two wires (usually a red and a black) the fan is only connected to the 12v supply and has No control on it over speed - thereby running at 'Full Speed' all the time. Besides the excessive noise coming out of that PC (the way they ran 15 to 20 years ago), there is will a significant amount of current drawn through the connectors on the motherboard, which could heat up the fan power driver logic and possibly reduce the life of your motherboard (at least the Fan connectors. If you really want to keep those fans, I suggest you get some adapters that allow you to connect them directly to one of the power supply connectors - either SATA Power or a Molex.
Unfortunately, I do not own one of those motherboards, or a spare 12th Gen CPU at this time. What aspects of that review are you mainly interested in seeing? Maybe I already have a video that covers that aspect.
@@adkramgaming According to the ASUS Website, it has slots for up to two (2), 32gig DIMMS, which allows for up to 64gb total. Unfortunately, it has Only three Fan headers, one for the CPU and two for the case, so cooling is somewhat limited. You can take a look at this ASUS link: www.asus.com/Motherboards-Components/Motherboards/PRIME/PRIME-H610M-E-D4/
On my gigabyte board there is no case fan port but there’s 2 cpu fan ports and because the cpu fan port has 4 pins instead of 3 you just plug the 3 you have into the spot where it fits
Honestly, I would change the case fans - which is my default 98% of the time since most cases under about $200 only comes with the 3-pin DC Fans. PWM is very superior in terms of cooling control and reaction to temperature changes - at least the way the BIOS and supporting Fan software tend to work.
You should be able to. The motherboards usually have a 'default' cyclic pattern but that can usually be changed with the software meant to control the RGB for that motherboard.
It sounds like you have an ARGB fan (that Only worked at 5-volts), and a legacy RGB connector (that only outputs 12-volts) on your motherboard. See if there is also an ARGB connector. If not, do not plug it in, or you will blow something out, most likely the Fan, but you could also trip the over-current sensor in your Power Supply, which you can reset by turning your PC off for at least five minutes.
@@IdiotSauce29 You are quite welcome. Now you have me wondering if that fan is meant to be connected to a proprietary RGB controller. Is it just one fan, or two to three?
Then it is an ARGB type that can ONLY use 5volts. Your motherboard may have both connectors. NEVER try a three pin fan in a 4-pin connector. It will not only fail to light, it will likely burn out the LED controller on the Fan.
It should still fit (over the little plastic guide). Unfortunately it will not take advantage of the PWM technology on the mother board to more carefully control the fan speed.

You should be able to connect the three-pin fan to the 4-pin motherboard connector. One pin will stick out, but that is OK. The connector should have a guide on it to prevent it from going into the wrong pins.

I assume you don't have enough motherboard headers. If that's the situation, then you need to use some Fan splitter cables. It works best when you split two fans that are next to each other in the case, like at the front or top.
You motherboard will probably work doing that. Not sure if they all will however. In either case you will get the error code or light indicating a CPU problem.
@@PE4Doers Yes, the fan connectors. It worked before. I was only replacing my psu and now my fans don’t turn on… on my motherboard there are only four not three.

That is the million dollar question.
That is what 90% of people stumbling upon this video want to know. Not the easy answer that makes everyone look stupid.
This is an actual question.
I got 7 fans😭
I assume you don't have enough motherboard headers. If that's the situation, then you need to use some Fan splitter cables. It works best when you split two fans that are next to each other in the case, like at the front or top.
is it safe to test the fans without the cpu installed?
You motherboard will probably work doing that. Not sure if they all will however. In either case you will get the error code or light indicating a CPU problem.
My connector has 3 not four… but there is four in my motherboard. Idk what to do
Are you referring to the Fan connector? If so, DO NOT connect it. Connect 3-wire to 3 ONLY, and 4-wire to 4 ONLY.
@@PE4Doers Yes, the fan connectors. It worked before. I was only replacing my psu and now my fans don’t turn on… on my motherboard there are only four not three. Idk how to fix this, it was working before so o think I must have unplugged something related to the fans (everything else works fine except the fans)
@@honinakecheta601 Most motherboards have both the 4 and 3 connectors. Is it possible you had it connected to a 3-pin connector before replacing the PSU? If you connect a 3-pin Fan to a 4-connector it will likely burn out the LED controller in the fan.
@@PE4Doers thank you for responding, I was able to fix the issue I had but this will be useful information for me in the future for when I get a new motherboard
@@honinakecheta601 Good luck then. I'm not sure if I was able to help. It is a challenge when I can't see what's going on with my eyes, but I know how frustrating tech problems can be. I am actually working on one myself right now as I prepare for the Live Stream I will be holding on Sunday.
this comment will get pinned, and no one knows why
Why do you say that?
