Phanteks PH-CB-Y3P 4.3 in. 3 Pin Y Splitter Fan Cable Female to Male

Pros: Works as advertised. Accommodates 3 or 4 pin fan connections. Only one of the two plugs has the 4th PWM pin, but this is fine as your motherboard or controller only needs to read the speed on one fan to control both. The connectors are solid, and it is nice that most of the cable is sleeved.

Cons: None come to mind.

Pros: This 3-pin splitter works like a champ and will likely last longer than your shoes. The wiring is shrouded and easy to work with, but also retains the shape you morph it to when you're routing it.

Cons: None. It could be longer, but if you want longer then go look for a longer cable, because they're available.

Overall Review: I recommend using this for identical fans. If you want to know why, read the section below where I critique the other reviewers who left uninformed criticisms of this splitter. This is for all the people who have left reviews with bad information - you don't know what you're talking about. "Instruction booklet was extremely vague..." There is no instruction booklet - you left this review for the wrong component. It's a fan splitter, if you don't know how to use it, don't order it." "Only a 2 wire system, not 4, not even 3!!" Well, that's a confession that you don't know what you're doing and you bought the wrong thing for your needs. ONE of the splitter ends is only two wires, because one of the wires is a speed sensor for the fan to tell the motherboard how fast it is spinning. You can't send information from two fans to one 3-pin header on the motherboard. But the other end DOES have 3 pins, so one fan will report back to the motherboard "I'm spinning at XXX rpm.

Pros: Straight forward product. Splits one four pin fan header to two fans. Works.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: If you know what this is used for, you probably don't need a lot of feedback. If you don't know what this is used for, do some research on fan splitter and fan extension cables to be certain you are getting the right product.

Pros: -gives you an extra plug for additional needed fans.

Cons: -None

Overall Review: Does what it's designed to do.

Pros: Great for the Phanteks PWM fan hub, which is what these were specifically designed for. This product is not to be used as a standard fan splitter as it is designed to be pared with a PWM fan hub which then gets it's voltage from the motherboard fan connector, allowing it to control all fans even though these only use 2 pin connections. They work great in my Enthoo Primo case which came with them and the fan hub together.

Cons: None, they are sleek, and built really well.

Overall Review: Ignore what the other reviewers have said about these being only working with 2 pins and giving you no control, that is a purposeful part of the design as they are built specifically to be used with a PWM fan hub.

Pros: No the fan connectors on the Y-end are not more flexible than you were hoping, at least they weren't for me - route responsibly. Yes the wire covering is that same amazing material Phanteks uses on the extender cables included with their fans - I want to buy this stuff in bulk and use it on all my wires if only i could find out what it is.

Cons: No, it is not a con that one fan connector is missing a pin, that's a feature and an important one too.

Overall Review: As installed in my Phanteks Enthoo Pro M you cannot see this cable and that is a shame but I know it is there and maybe that is all that matters. I can't seem to remember what kind of packaging this came in so I assume it was out of it quickly and easily.

Pros: Very high quality construction and materials.

Cons: It's 2 wire, but still works great.

Overall Review: The new motherboard has only 2 fan headers and now with this accessory I can get both case fans going and cpu fan. The fans are large and low speed. Since this does not have speed control wire there still is no increase in noise, they are perfectly silent.

Pros: * Works excellent, the cable length was just right. * I was able to turn my top case fans into exhaust fans thanks to the product, I ran short of fan hubs on my M-ATX Motherboard.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I would purchase this again if I needed to or a similar product
