Question 1

I have one 3pin head for system fan and want to run 2 80 mm fans off it.    do they typically come with daisy-chain compatible plugs, or do I need a separate patch cable?

Accepted Answer

The don't come with daisy-chain compatible plugs. I have two running to a 3pin header using a cable splitter - (https://www.newegg.com/black-en-labs-11-15-cable-splitters/p/1W7-004Z-00027?Item=9SIACJF5497334

Question 3

the stock fan this is replacing has 4 wires while this one appears to have only 3. Does it matter?

Accepted Answer

It would matter dependent upon the 4-pin arrangement on the mainboard where it plugs in. I have never seen a 3-pin plug on to a 4-pin and work. However the 3 wires are power, common and ground.

Question 4

Is this fan PWM?

Accepted Answer

No, these are 3-wire tach-feedback fans.  Box includes fan, screws, and a molex passthrough to power the fan.

Question 5

I ordered a 60mm fan for my cpu cooler and it was about 1/2 inch too small either way. I have no clue what size that would be...it's for an Avatar Cooler Master computer. There is no model number on the fan label inside the computer.  Any ideas from anyone?

Accepted Answer

The difference between an 80mm am and a 60mm fan is a 3/4" (20mm).  I don't have an Avatar Cooler Master computer, but all of my computer case fans are 80mm.

Question 6

what is the size of this product? looking for a 2 3/4 square

Accepted Answer

The manufacturer specifies it at 80 x 80 x 25mm.

Question 7

does this fan have a 4 pin connector? MY pc detects presence of a working cooling fan and needs to have 4 pin connector.

Accepted Answer

Just looked in may case. It is a 3 pin that could work for power, but you are right that it would not work with your boards sensors to detect it.

Question 8

Hi there.   What are the electrical specs?  I need a 48 vdc fan.  Thank you.

Accepted Answer

It is 12vdc... (Zoom on that sticker in that image)

Most consumer computer parts are rated 12vdc...

Question 9

Can u power this fan with a 9 volt battery ???

Accepted Answer

9-volt batteries typically supply about 500maH of current.  That is 1/2 amp.  The fan would run, since it is a DC 12v, .15 amp fan, but not for long, probably 3 hours.
