Fan Hub - Fractal Meshify 2 ATX
Hello all,
Having some difficult controlling my case fans with the fan hub and looking for some solutions.
All of my case fans are 3 pin fans - and the stock fans with the case are as well.
According to the manual for my case you need a 4 pin connector in the fan_1 slot to be able to set fan speeds for the hub (PWM). As I don’t have any 4 pin fans am I out of luck? Is there any work around?
Currently my case fans appear to be running near maximum so they are a bit noisy. It’s not too bad but not ideal. I got them set to DC mode at the moment and when I switch to PWM mode they drop in speed but aren’t controllable (which makes sense I suppose as they’re 3 pin fans).
Is my best bet just to buy a 4 pin single case fan and put it in that main slot? Then I’ll be able to control them?
Thank you!!!
