  1. Well, this seems the kind of useful advice I can make use of, and also a hint I still have a lot of stuff to learn while building a high-performance computer by myself. Thanks for the thorough explanation, AF120 Quiet Edition indeed seems to be the correct choice here.
  2. Hi folks, I couldn't find anywhere a single SP120RGB fan to add as a rear (exhaust) fan to my case, so unless there's any other issue besides the one I describe next with the ML120 line of fans, I'm going with one of those. After some research I now know that the ML line of fans isn't compatible with SP line of fans controller hub -- the ones that came pre-installed with my 460x; it's kind of sad but no at biggy at the end of the day, given how good this magnetic fan is. So my question is: I shouldn't have any problem connecting the ML120 to any of the fan connectors on the motherboard, correct? Thanks!
  3. Wonderful. I'm going to connect then the three front fans to H_AMP using a PWM 3-way splitter, and the rear fan to CHA 1, as this layout makes absolutely sense.
  4. Do you know by chance how many fans can I hook into the H_AMP connector? Since I'm in the market for an splitter, I was thinking that maybe I can just go ahead and hook all the four fans there (the three from the front that comes with the case plus the rear one), if the connector supports that load.
  5. Good to know, because I ended up using all the CHA_FAN 1-3 for the front coolers, CPU_FAN for the water cooler fans and AIO_PUMP for the cooler itself. I'm not using a rear exhaust fan yet, but should I need to add it in the future, I'll need a splitter for the three front fans, in order to make space to connect the rear fan. You can't imagine how useful your comment is, I greatly appreciate it.
  6. I'm not sure how to mark this thread as solved, but for any practical purposes my issue is indeed [ SOLVED ]
  7. Hey c-attack, thanks for your reply. So, I found that the CHA_FAN 1-3 motherboard connectors in fact have a notch that fits the fans connectors like you say -- awesome. Thanks for taking the time to help me out :)
  8. Hi all, It's been a while since I built a PC (although never built a gaming PC), so please forgive me if you find this question dumb. I bought this awesome case Corsair 460x for my new gaming rig, and I'm at the point when I'm almost done with the build, with one of the few things standing being connecting the three SP120RGB fans power cables to the motherboard (specs provided in my signature). The fans themselves come already installed and connected to the hub and speed/light control (thanks, Corsair!). Specifically, what I can't figure out, is how to connect these 3-pin power cables to the 4-pin CHA_FAN 1 to 3 on my motherboard. Aside connecting the SP120RGB fans, last thing will be installing the Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML240R RGB and the video card -- which of course has nothing to do with Corsair but I wanted to provide you folks with some extra context. Thanks!
