Can SP120 LED fans be used with H100i fan controller?

Hey everyone

 

I have question. Can the SP120 LED fans (like these: link) be used with the built-in H100i fan controller? I am thinking from a current/draw perspective whether it is safe/recommended/supported? Thanks.

 

Regards,

CTV

All the LED series fans are 3 pin DC, so you won't have any control over the fan speed through LINK. You can power them from the motherboard or seek a 4 pin PWM LED fan. You are right to be cautious about the fan controller in the pump. There is a specified 1.0 amp limit, but that is not a line you want to get very close to. Leave yourself some space. PWM LED fans, particularly higher RPM versions, can pull as much as 0.45A per fan. That does bring some amount of risk.
