Questions about fans/pins/splitter - Sam - 2016-01-30 15:39 Hello, I recently bought two extra fans for my case, but I forgot that I needed away to connect them... Ops. Anyway, me being me and trying to be smart about things and order the correct things I did some reading and further confused myself. My question is: I have 4 pin fan slots on my motherboard, mycurrent fans are also 4 pin, if I was to buy splitter cables so I could use two fans in the one slot, but the fans I ordered are 3 pin, would I still be able to control the speed of them or would they just spin 100% the whole time, turn my computer into a helicopter and fly out the window?
