This fan splitter is the best i've used by far. Ended up buying 4 for me and my friends.
it is really handy and can keep cable clutter to a minimum
Have this installed on my pc for a long while. Has worked flawlessly. Well worth the money.
yeah i love these, very handy
Thanks for the review. I like that your content is so relevant and helpful to me. I've got a second PC that has 1x CPU fan + 3x case fans yet only 2 fan headers (one which has the CPU fan connected to it), I've used a fan splitter but I can only connect 2 of the fans to it... this is a much better solution. Cheers Mike!
Glad I could help! and thanks for the kind words
No fingers were harmed in the making of this video. Thnak you very much, Mike and Kath!
very true!
I appreciate your preferred fan settings breakdown. Thanks, very helpful.
No problem!
recently got one of these, works great, really small, fits behind the "rear" lid real easily, and has its own adequate sticky strip to attach to the case.
Nice cheap box to address a problem with fan headers on MBs. Great video thanks Mike.
You bet
I just ordered one of these bad boys thanks to your thorough review!
Hope you enjoy it!
This is the exactly what i need, my motherboard only has a 1 classis/pump and wanted to add in 3 fans to my motherboard. Was also half price so its perfect timing.
awesome!
quite informative, i was looking which splitter to use between this and the 10 and you answered all my questions.
glad to hear it, thanks for watching
Great bit of kit that is cheap, handy and does what it says on the tin. Thanks for sharing Mike and Kath :-)
this is a great little gadget and makes life so much easier for some cable management and adding extra fans

Leant a lot from you videos to help with my 1st new build. 👍👍
Glad I could help
I recall following yur recommendation for an Arctic fan hub to build dters pc late 2020. These are a great idea for basic mbs👍Btw did the sound drop part way thru? Thanks for sharing Mike and Kath👍
Good stuff! and yes it did, another one slipped through, it is being trimmed out in the background 👍
Nice peice of kit cheers for the review mike 👍
No problem 👍
Hi! Thank you very much for the instruction. Now it is absolutely clear for me that exactly this one device I need.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi, Mike. This looks like a nice fan hub. However, I still prefer cutting the cables and splicing them together in sets of three fans in parallel.
Good point! and cheaper
Great vid. How about showing "how-to" add ARGB fan set up to a motherboard that only has RGB connectors? And if you can, show how to control with software rather than a remote control.
cooler master has argb controllers with usb 2.0 connector and are software controlled
@@badhusband1902 Cheers. Lets see if Mike decides to show novices like me :)
The Razer Chroma is pretty good at controlling the ARGB, 6 three pin ports for ARGB, ( coolermaster only has 4, we have both) power for the fans need sourcing elsewhere though. Individual LED control meaning you can get great subtle effects. The sofware is a bit task manager heavy but not too bad.Well worth checking out and currently 25% off at Amazon.
there is no point in adding a ARGB fan or converting it to RGB as the entire benefit of ARGB is completely lost on the conversion.
Thank you for the review. i was looking for a way to control the PWM fans on my brother new PC (Gigabyte b450 MB, only 1 fan header for the case) and this is just perfect.
No problem 👍
@@mikesunboxing Can I connect 4 fans to a b450m s2h that only has a 1 header
Useful. Been using something like this for years. 👍
check the temps and see if it is running okay
this the most useful spliter
it is really handy
Very nice suggestion! Great set up at the end...kudos!
Glad you enjoyed it
audio dropped at 5 mins 22 seconds not sure if its my pc or your video
Same for me
Video
yes this is an ongoing problem for some videos, i will trim it out, lucky i was just rambling anyway so not a crucial bit of info
This was an excellent video, thanks so much, the full walkthrough was perfect and helped alot.
You're very welcome!
What happens when you plug in both 4-pin and 3-pin fans on this hub? I have two 4-pin fans, and two 3-pin stock case fans but only one system fan header on my mobo. Was wondering if this hub could fit my use case.
the 3 pin fans will spin either very slowly or full speed when used with other 4 pin fans
@@mikesunboxing is that a bad thing ?
Thanks for this, Recently did a self build, Noticed The provided fans from case were woefully insufficient and Motherboard had insufficient connections for fans aswell.
No rear exhaust for heat all 3 fans were put at front by manufactorer majority of my heat is being taken by PSU Right now have turned it upside down so the heat gets sucked and pushed out.
Thank you for sharing! This actually helped me a lot
You're so welcome!
The A520 motherboard springs to mind 😅
yeah or the a320m-a i have here
I love PC fans like I love RGB ligths!! More Fans is more better!! And more fans are just more cool! Literally!!! Lol.
yes more fans are needed in life, maybe a few in the network cupboard to keep all your gear cool
This was quite helpful, Ty so much♥
Going for deep cool fh 10…thnks for the vid…i want to power the hub via psu :)
The only concern I would have is loading up 4 fans on 1 motherboard header, I mean is it no different then having a 4 head splitter cable that connects to 1 MB header? Unless this hub supplies the power to the fans then that would rock! However its pretty cool you can control 3 pin (DC) fans within your BIOS instead of the fans running at full power and without the ability to control the speed.
four fans is a bit on the edge for some older motherboards, three is very comfortable
Worthy of Support comment 🙂
Ps: @05:14 to @05:28 there is no sound 😞
Yeah there was an Adobe rendering error, the video is being updated in the background so it should remove that segment shortly
@@mikesunboxing It's not a problem for me. just wanted you to know. other than that great video info & find 🙂
@@WilliamAndrewPhilipBodie Thanks :-)
can the Asus prime b450m-a hold 4 arctic p12 PWM pst co fans in that one fan hub ?
yes should be fine
@@mikesunboxing do you know how many amps or volts the deepcool fh 04 takes ?
thanks, i always wondered if there was a fan hub available, also.......well i ask this without googling it, so there probably is, & that is surely you could link them to run via bluetooth ? save on all those dam wires, only a thought as my bikes sram groupset is wireless,
lian li have something like that in the works, but still prototype level at the moment
The problem is with this with fans that pull to much current. It could blow the MB fan controller, it was designed to power 1 simple fan, not 4 fans, even more if the fans are power hungry.
most modern headers are designed for 2A so that isn't an issue now
@@mikesunboxing tell that to my 10k rpm delta fan...
bro can I connect 3 Rgb fans and 1 normal in the hub and then plug it in the sys fan on the motherboard?
yes that is fine, but remember this is a replicator, so the ports all give out the same signal regardless of the fans plugged in, so try and use similarly speced fans
Thank you Mike !
cheers James
Right now, adding more fans would mean getting bigger case for me 😁
seems like a good excuse to me
@@mikesunboxing just like wireless screwdriver, I have to let some time pass before having a new case in home 🙁
nice fan splitter cheers
Thanks for watching, Craig
Great video, Mike. One question: when plugging in 3 pin fans to 4 pin headers, which pins do you miss? The one at the beginning or the end
It's keyed, so you gonna miss the last pin a.k.a the pin that control the speed in pwm mode.
yes as posted key have a plastic lug or guide so they can't be easily but in wrong
On a 3-pin connector pin-1 is the ground, pin-2 is 12VDC, and pin-3 controls the speed. On a 4-pin connector pin-1 is the ground, pin-2 is 12VDC, pin-3 is a sensor, and pin-4 is the speed control. So on a 3-pin connector pin-3 acts as both the sensor and speed controller, to the best of my knowledge.
@@OlettaLiano quite there but 3rd pin is always a speed sensor on both 4-pin pwm and 3-pin vdc connection. Difference is 3-pin control the speed by lowering the amount of voltage going into the fan, usually ranging from 9v - 12v. While 4pin pwm controling the speed by basically turning on and off the 12v rail very fast to get the speed it targets, but it still 12v nonetheless, that's why 3-pin fan when set into 4-pin pwm mode always gl full speed because to them its just 12v without any regulator to turn on or off
I have a 1 amp port and i need to put 4 12 volt fans in the hub will it work
that might be pushing it when they are all at full load
@@mikesunboxing thanks for the help i was already getting worried it will not work.
And they will not be under full load
Deepcool sc-790 if u can do a video on this would be great.
i'll see what i can do
Thanks
Just an FYI when I hook it all up I got the 90b code on start up so I put everything back to stock. My mb only has a cpu fan header and s system fan header for the rear exhaust fan.
Hello, I wanted to ask a question... I wanted to connect this hub to my motherboard and connect 3 fans to it.
The rated voltage of each fan is 12v and the 4-pin connector on my mother gives 12v..
Would it be ok to connect all 3 fans? Or would it cause the motherboard connector to overheat? Cheers!
it is the AMPs that count the voltage isn't as much a concern here. Most modern fan headers will output a minimum of 1A so check your fans maximum AMP rating and times it by the number of fans
Hello. I had a question. What other software can you use to control your fans through this hub or the fh10 hub? I noticed you used msi center, are there others that you can use to set your curves and such? Thank you
all the motherboard manufacturers have a similar app like ai suite 3 for asus and gigabyte has SiV
Awesome content!
Glad you enjoyed it
In my motherboard I have 2 types of fan headers cpu fan header and cha fan header and I don’t know where to plug the to
If it is case fans then cha fan
Hey does it work with rgb fans
it does work with any 3pin VDC or 4 pin PWM fans but the RGB will need to be controlled with a controller, this will still control or power the fans
I bought the ID Cooling FH-07 not knowing there's a difference between fans and my fan uses 3 pins while the FH-07 uses 4.. I'm sad
try it, it might be okay as long as you set the motherboard fan port to DC
Dear Mike!
I bought a PC case which has two 3-pin sys fans and also have a 4-pin fan.
I am a bit confused, can i connect these fans into this hub? I only have one 4-pin chase fan header in my motherboard. If true, then should i plug 4-pin fan into the 1st port right?
Thanks in advance for your reply! :)
You can do the 3 pin or the 4 but technically not both at the same time if you set the header to voltage and connect the 3 pin fan into the first socket that might work
Hey i have a question, does bad cable managment in the back make your temps rise higher, and if so, will it affect lifespan of your components?
only if it is blocking the airflow a lot
Con una placa madre que soporta 1A puedo conectat ventiladores que consumen 0,2? Hay riesgo de que haya sobrecarga??
Puedes conectar 4 o 5 de ellos a ese amperaje.
Nice! The screwdrivers in the back are more worth than the the motherboard !
I have the asrock B650 HDV/M.2 motherboard, where would I plug in this device on my motherboard?
chassis fan header
Awesome thank you for the help! 😊
If the fan hub don’t have power plug from psu don’t buy it it’s just A splitter
the max of 1 fan header is 2 fans only more than that
He is gonna damage ur motherboard with time
if the header has enough amps it is fine
I’m confused right now. So idk if my motherboards headers will support the wattage of this I was thinking of getting 5 arctic f12 PMW which need a wattage of 2.4 W and idk if that’s too much for the 4 pin fan header for the ASUS Prime B660M-A Wifi D4
this will only take 4 fans but i would suggest 3 to be on the safe side, maybe get a powered hub if you are unsure
Hello, I was thinking of buying the asrock B450M Pro4-F R2.0 and CASE GAMER HALION FURY ATX 550W, but the page does not show the voltage or amperage of the fans, it has 4 and since the mother only has 2 to connect, I think, I wanted to buy that hub. know if the hub will give me problems to motherboard
or not
should be fine, it you are concerned get the arctic powered PWM fan hub assuming the case fans are PWM not VDC
@@mikesunboxing So this will turn the fans and I won't have any problems, right?
Can this work with any motherboard? I have the Asus PRIME B660M-A AC D4 motherboard and CORSAIR - LL Series 120mm Case Cooling Fan Kit
should be fine
Does the HUB get powered by the SATA l shaped cable? Might be a dumb question but I know very little about pcs and trying to learn
no this hub is self powered by the motherboard

Hello,i have a question. I am using thr prime h510M-E motherboard so just wondering if i can connect the deepcool deepcool fk120 fan to the CHA_FAN(SYS_FAN) or i will connect it to the CPU fan using a fan splitter?
connect fans to the CHA_fAN header and use the splitter on that header if needed
@@mikesunboxingis it okay to connect it to the cpu fan header ?
Is this compatible somehow with say.. a thermaltake RGB controller? I am trying to make this stupid build of mine work and while I can control the light with my TT controller, PWM doesn't work. (well, works for 3 of my 9 fans as I can only put one pwm cable, the other spot is taken by my aio pump)

Hi with DC intake fans what control temperature reference should be used the CPU, GPU or Vrams ?
that is down to you, i would probably use the CPU temp myself
Sorry for my ignorance, but i have this motherboard: gigabyte b450m ds3h v2, where i need to connect this hub? and also, can i use 3 pin fans in it?
connect it to a chassis fan header, and set the header in the BIOS to DC control for using 3 pin fans
does this allow you to control the rgb of the fans?
no, fan speed only
@mikesunboxing ok thanks, i decided to go with daisy chain fans, so I can connect all three to my argb head on my motherboard, thanks anyway though :)
My English is not good, but one question : this spliter work in mother 980de3/u3s3 2.0 rev ?
yes it will Hernan
I guess a fan hub does not control individual fan speeds. I want each fan controled thru fan profile with Fan Control.
you need to plug a single fan into a single header to do that
im using 1 - 3pin and 1- 4pin and they both work.. is that fine ?
if it works, it works
Could you please explain what is 1st slot for? What if i connect 3 same pwm fans into 2, 3, 4 slots, leaving 1st slot empty?
the first port is for fan speed sensing
@@mikesunboxing so it's mandatory to connect at least one of the same fans to this port?
Здравствуйте. К какому разъёму подключать данный разветвитель. CPU Fun подойдёт для этого?
connect it to the header you want the fans to respond to. CPU or Chassis fan header, either is okay
Hi,i want to buy a argb fan hub,can i plug all the 6 fans in it? Because people on the internet say it wil catch on fire or something and idk what to do
the airgoo one we reviewed will do that easily and won't catch fire
When we use there fan hubs, can we still control fan curve via BIOS? Just wanted to be double sure ty
yes but the fans connected will all be using the same curve
can i buy 2 of those hubs, and plug them into fan header 1 and 2 on motherboard and then plug my 3 fans into 1 hub and my rest 3 into the other hub??????????????????????
yes you can
my mobo has only one 4 pin case fan header with pwm controll . if I use this and plug two pwm fans into it. are they both gona be pwm controlled or is one gona run at full sped? thank you!
they will be both running the same PWM speeds
Is it safe to connect three fans at 0.37 amps peak to a 1A fan header?
Should be okay if you have no other option
so i see how this fan hub uses a 4 pin to connect to your motherboard. However my motherboard only has 3 pin fan headers. How do i do this? Can i do this?
yes but the fans need to be 3 pin also
@@mikesunboxing i did some digging into my mobo and turns out it got multiple 4 pin fan headers. I looked in the manual and it said it only had 2 3 pin. Weird how the manual is wrong. I ordered 2 of these hubs and will be using them with 6 4 pin fans :)
if i got 6 fans can i plug 2 fans into motherboard and the rest 4 into the hub?
that should be okay 3 or 4 is normally okay
i bought nzxt h5 flow elite i have 2 rgbs fans and 2 non-rgb nzxt fans all of them are 3 pins can i control my fans speed with this deepcool controller i want all of my fans to run at %50 idle and %100 at rendering
if they are all 3 pins yes
@@mikesunboxing they are all 3 pins so if i connect all of them to deepcool controller can i use all of them at %50 speed with dc controlling and thank you for your answer
I have a question I have four 4 pin fans with each 1 four pin and a 3 pin can I use this device plugging in 4 pins to the hub and the extension 4 pin power to my motherboard header RGB?
if it is a 4 pin PWM plug yes, but the RGB or ARGB is nothing to do with this hub at all, that needs to be done separately

Hi, i have a question, can i connect 2 of those fan hub together and connect 8fans the 1hub will be connected on my Mboard sys fan??
Will it work?
no that would be too much load on the header, i would use 3 / 4 fans on any motherboard header
I bought this hub to connect 4 arctic p12 pwm in my fan header, unfortunately when I set it to PWM mode, the RPM going full. Not sure what causes this problem lol.
yeah that is odd if the header is set to PWM in the bios, maybe a loose connection on port 1
@@mikesunboxing Already fixed it, instead of daisy chaining my 3 intake fans, I plugged them individually. To my surprise it works lol.
@@dayveeee07 Glad you got it all working 🙂
I have a B760M-P, i already installed 4 fans and already plugged them in to the fan hub except for the side panel ran which i will plug on the second slot, would there be a problem if the 3 other fans are plugged onto the fan hub?
sorry i don't quite understand the question
@@mikesunboxing Pardon me, i was writing this on mobile so it's understandable if it's sorta gibberish. Will 2 120mm and one 80mm fans overload the fan hub?

so it means that i cannot use my 3 and 4 pin fan at the same time?
that is correct. use 3 pin OR 4 pin not both types at the same time
does the deepcool fan hub controsl the rpm automatically or need to set manual ?
it repeats the rpm signal that the hub is plugged into to every port
i don’t know almost anything about pcs but my motherboard has no fan headers and i could only get it to turn on but there’s no rgb. so if i get a fan hub would i be able to get rgb?

Can i use this with Molex Pin Fans ?
no sorry
Can this hub control 3pin fan speed?
yes it they are all 3 pin
Hi can i connect the hub to 3 pin fan ?
you can but it will need the main header it is plugged into to be set to DC mode rather than PWM and any other fans connected to the hum will also need to be 3 pin DC
do corsair fans plug into and work on this?
only the ones with 4 pin pwm plugs on
Will it be ok to plug in the graphics card fans into a fan hub ?
if they use 4 pin PWM connections it should be okay, but the GPU sensor or temp sensor probably won't be able to regulate them
