skydaddy Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I know the H100i comes with two Y-splitters, but is there two 4 pin connections on the block? Is corsair link software, hardware, or both? If I were to use 4 other 120mm fans, would they be able to connect to the block? P.S. I plan on getting the H100i when I get a FX-8350.

thenosbod Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 The y piece cables that come with the h100i are not splitters. The unit will take up to four fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenosbod Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 the y cables connect two fans via one connector but each fan as its own pins which is why I said they were not splitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skydaddy Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 So there are 2 connectors for 4 fans? Or would I need another Y cable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenosbod Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 yes the unit takes four fans. 2 from each y cable. if you need more than four fans you will need to run them from the mother board or power supply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenosbod Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I have got 2 fans from my h100i connected to one y piece and my 120mm rear fan + 200mm front fan connected to the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In theory there are four 4 pin connectors but they are divided in two connectors on the block side. To use them you will need those Y cables. Each end is like a independent connector or channel. Corsair link is both. In theory yes you could use four fans as long it dos not surpass the limits of the connector. I think is 2 amps for each "channel" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
