Do I need to cut one of the yellow wires leading to one of the case fans connector? Otherwise, two fan sensors will be read by ONE header.

As long as both fans are the same make and model, it shouldn't be a problem.

yellow wire is for a connection to something that can control the fans RPM. should run at full speed without it.

The yellow wire is the tachometer signal. Most motherboards use that signal to know at which speed is the fan running.

The timing/speed data from only one fan is passed to the motherboard; the pulse width modulation (PWM) from the motherboard is delivered the same to both fans. It would probably be a good idea to use identical fans.

Correct. I use two of these to run 4 case fans.. 2 in front and 2 in rear. My motherboard controls the speed as designed. These are 4 pin connectors for PWM style fans. Don't be fooled as 1 connector only has 3 pins, this is by design to 'ignore' 1 fans speed signal to not 'confuse' the motherboard. Enjoy!

Verify the fan direction, u can see it by the indicating arows at the side of the coolers, both should have the same direction. Verify if u are using the low noise adapter it slows down the speed of the fan.

you will need two that will be located before the converter and two that will be located after the converter. all four may be the same part# or the front sensors may have a different part# from the rear sensors. depends on the length of the wire coming from the sensor. that's what i usually see. hope this helps.

No I wired both fans on....it was designedb for one...but I made two work. ..I just put a 20 amp fuse to prevent spikes in voltage

Yes. Ensure that at least one pci-e slot is available for the fan card when connected to the molex cable.

Connect a molex to the fans if you want to use the integrated fan controller. There should be a female molex connector coming for the controller

Yes...one cable supports 2 fans. So you can have up to 4 fans for your 2 plugs. Keep in mind they run in parallel and are treated as one fan on MOBO.

When I first installed mine I had the Positive and Negative switched on the small two pin connectors for the case. This was the problem for me. Once I had the correct +/- everything worked fine.

Not the fan, the heatsink. My heatsink did. I took it off, and using my own, but probably not a big difference.

What I did was open the case and take the guts out. I ported them to a case with a 120mm fan. I had to solder a bit and it was a pain in the butt. The PSU is decent here but it sounds like a jet engine. Mine had TWO 80mm fans. Insane. Now I have one decent, quiet PSU. Another option is to simply unplug one of the fans - unscrew the back and unplug the intake fan (facing the Mobo). You probably want to leave the exhaust fan intact.

I have no idea but, I did call customer service regarding my wiring situation, and they gave me a configuration which made the device work perfectly. My guess, the Fan only feature would not work.

It depends on if your running 2 fans or not if not it should plug into the esc fan cable with and adapter because both plugs are female

Black is 0 V (ground or negative), the next to it, yellow, is the + 12 V (positive). Next green = sensor of rotation speed, then blue is the additional, programmable 0-12 V (PWM). 2nd and 4th are sometimes interchangable, but not always. Just sticking a second wire from the system board to the 4th fan's won't activate some of the fans. But putting a PWM into the second wire of a fan is more likely to control it. At fans it's better to look at the position in the connector, rather than colors. 0 V is always the first, edgemost, corresponding to the plastic tooth. The 3rd (sensor) is at the opposite tooth, and the 4th PWM is the pin protruding beyond the plastic tooths to the side. Looking like an additional contact "added later" to the fan standard. And in all computer wire sets, i guess, a black wire is the 0 V, and if there's no black, then a white should exist, and the white is 0 V.
