About this deal

The brand Evercool is the epitome of trust to many PC builders. The PC hardware produced by them has gathered much praise lately. The price is moderate, which I feel won’t be an issue for you. Moreover, as a splitter cable, it’s a decent option for hooking up multiple fans. Hi, I bought a ML240L RGB from Cooler Master but I realise my micro itx motherboard only has 2 4 pin connectors, whereas the AIO needs a 3 pin for the pump and 4 pin for the fans. It is a Y-splitter fan cable. One end will be the SATA connection, and the other end will consist of fan connectors that are split in Y-shape. The best part is that this cable comes with 4 pin Molex connectors, which is rare among most options.

You can plug 3-pin fan things into 4 pin PWM headers - the connected device will just run at full speed unless it can be adjusted down in the BIOS or with motherboard fan control software. In my testing, I found that the fans connected to the splitters function seamlessly. There were no issues with the RPM as all of the fans ran at the same speed. No variations were there.

This splitter cable is perfect for controlling high-RPM fans. In my rig, I was able to achieve 100% RPM even after using it. For AIO pumps, a motherboard fan header should be fine for power, but I would not split it into pump + another fan. The cables present in this model are nicely braided. You can remain tension-free of any sort of tangling as the flexibility of these cables is damn high. If I were to plug a 4 pin fan splitter into a 4 pin header on the motherboard, and attach 2 4 pin cables(from aio fans) onto the splitter, then attach the 3 pin pump header onto the other 4 pin header on the motherboard would it work? Thanks.

This means it outputs at 12V, with a maximum of 4A. Most fans only draw like 0.5A or whatever, so you can split the connection multiple times without any drops or problems, as long as you don't overload the Amperage. When I used it in my rig, it took less than five minutes to set up everything inside the PC case properly. No extra hassle was there. PC fan splitters are basically cables used to connect the PC case fans to a single fan header in a motherboard. It attaches three fans on a single board header and allows you to have other fans in your system to improve the rig’s airflow.In my opinion, the Evercool DF001 is the most perfect choice to buy. But in case you want something affordable, you can go for the model from EKWB. Yes and no. The single 4-pin connector ("header") on the motherboard will have an Amperage rating. Eg: 4A I feel the quality of materials used in the formation of this fan splitter is top-notch. That is why its build quality turns out to be excellent. The best part is that it doesn’t really alter the fans’ power difference, and there is also no loss in the RPM in most cases.

Would it be okay if i bought a 4 pin fan splitter(it splits into 4) and plugged it into one of the fan headers?My motherboard only has one 4-pin connector (the rest are three pin), but I'd like to be able to control the speed that all my fans spin at. I don't mind not being able to control them individually. I was thinking about getting one of these splitters, but I'm concerned that it will cut the maximum speed (or the LED brightness) of my fans in half. Is that correct, or do I just totally misunderstand how the fans work?
