One ends in a normal fan connector for only the motor, and that plugs into a normal mobo fan header. Supports DDR4 Memory, up to 4133(OC) MHz The common lighted fans of this type all come with TWO cables each.Side note: The 'RPM Speed Signal' pin (rotations per minute) in the picture is telling the motherboard at which speed the fan is spinning, it is not controlling the fan. Supports 1st, 2nd and 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen™ / Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics and 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Graphics / Athlon™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics Desktop Processors for Socket AM4 With a PWM-controlled fan, the board powers it with a steady 12V, and the fan speed is controlled through the fourth pin via a PWM signal.I just encountered a similar scenario on the B450Max and using two Corsair 120mm AIO fans (used as case fans). The MSI B450 Tomahawk MAX is an awesome motherboard with a GREAT VRM. You could also try using the new (Nov 11) MSI Command Center and see if the fans will respond to adjustment via the Command Center fan curve settings. There are a couple of things you could try, one being the latest BETA bios. When the fans were taken off the splitter, then each put on its own Noctua noise deadener 4 pin cable both fans would start up using default (auto) settings.Īfter that, the fan speed curves were able to be easily adjusted and retained the setting after reboot (using shipping BIOS). When connected via a Noctua splitter to a Noctua fan silencer cable then directly to a fan header on the board, only ONE fan would start.
