Running out of CPU and Chassis fan headers


7beauties

Recommended Posts

I've got a Corsair Black Graphite 780T full tower case that has two large intake fans at the front bezel and a large exhaust fan at the back of the case. However, I chose to cool my Ryzen 1800K with a Corsair H11Oi liquid CPU cooler. The liquid cooler comes with a long radiator and two large fans, too. I fear I won't have enough to power all five chassis fans. I'd so much appreciate sagacious advice on how to to make this happen. BTW, I using a well rated Asus Crosshair VI Hero X370 motherboard. TY.

The two radiator fans will plug into the H110i controller. 1 mobo header for H110i- CPU Fan.

 

The rear 140mm can go on the rear mid-board CHA fan header. (1 header)

 

The front 140x2 can connect to the 780T fan controller or the front CHA header. (1 header).

 

You still have headers left over without needing any complex arrangements. It probably is possible to run both front and rear fans from the 780T controller further reducing the number of motherboard headers, although that is not necessary and not everyone likes mechanical fixed 3 speed control.
