Can this power a cpu fan?

if your fan is 12 volts you will need to wire 4 of them in series to get 12v.

This fan (as with most) come with the two pin Molex connector .... which connects directly to your motherboard. Most motherboards have at least two of these (one for the processor fan, and the other for a case fan). Not sure how many you plan to connect, but it seems to me that those two are sufficient. Of course, the fan will work with any 12v DC power (direction depending on which way you connect the two wires). How many do you plan to connect, and are you already using the TWO provided 12v connectors on your motherboard?

Yes it is possible....all USB standards are 5 volts....and that's what these fans are wired as. If you need a regular 12v fan, they sell similar ones having a 12v input having typical computer molex connectors....then you need some kind of power supply that provides 12v instead (like all the lines of a computer power supply)....they sell a transformer that has an output of 12v for this purpose as well.

Yes it can, make sure that your cooler is designed to convert to heat mode or else you will damage the cooling unit and fan.

I don't think so unless you bought & used a converter. It has a little motor for the fan.

Depends on where on the mother board the cpu is. There are mounts along back of case for reservoir/tank/fan, but they may interfere with peripheral port access

Yes, if the motherboard has that feature. This fan has a three wire connector.

I don't know why not, it is just a switch like any other. check the amp rating on the fans to make sure the total doesn't exceed the rating of the switch.

With the proper adapters. It can be done. Would I use this particular fan on a CPU? No. I have a couple of these fans. My opinion. They are good for case use. But I would look for something that moves a bit more air than these to use on a CPU.

Probably, depends on what else is in the system and the CPU power draw you have

No. Please don't waste your time and money on this fan. The output is pitiful. I returned it.

I'm not sure - I've used it to power a large stand fan and it worked well (it is noisy, though!) Sorry, I wish I could tell you definitely!

I would say yes, but it depends on how many AMPs are required to run the fan?

I am not sure whether your PC have enough power to run a fan. I use it for data transfer and it works just fine.

Yes, as long as your fan is a 2 speed fan to begin with it's a generic speed switch. You can also wire it through a timer too.

No, the Pi is powerful enough to power this. I've used this successfully in two Pis so far.

It should work. With that set- up, you should have an extra fan booster. You will need a power outlet where you want to install it
