Can I Use a PWM Splitter to Connect Different Arctic Fans?

Asked by TechieTurtle92
I'm curious if I can connect two different case fans, like the Arctic P12 Max and the Arctic P12 PWM PST, to one PWM PST cable splitter. Specifically, I want to plug the splitter into the 4-pin socket of the Arctic P12 PWM PST and then connect that to the motherboard's case fan header. Is this setup feasible?

Yes, you can do that! A splitter just works as a simple parallel circuit, so it'll handle different fans without any issues.

Definitely! Just keep in mind that both fans will run at the same percentage of their max RPMs. For example, if your Arctic P12 PWM PST has a max RPM of 1800 and the Arctic P12 Max has a max of 3300, setting the speed to 50% will mean the Arctic P12 runs at about 900 RPM while the Arctic P12 Max runs at around 1750 RPM.
