I can connect 6 fans, only 1 pwm input will not affect the fan speed or overload the motherboard

Hi,
Most controller pwn or not get their power from a sata or molex connection so they don't get power off the boards port it only gets pwm signal for rpm and those adjustments off the board.
But you'd have to post to the exact controller to know for sure.

the controller I'm going to use is 1- Thermaltake TT Sync Controller 1- and a controller that comes with the 3 fan package
but the controller Thermaltake TT Sync Controller has 3 sides and each side uses 1 pwm cable and my motherboard has only 2 inputs to connect pwm cables

I don't know if I'm making myself understood

These can be daisy chained to run multiple fans per header. I have 7 fans running on one header

EK-Cable Splitter 4-Fan PWM Extended

A 1-to-4 PWM fan splitter which allows the user to connect up to four PWM fans from just one PWM fan header on the motherboard.

Not sure about the RGB though. Maybe they have similar?

the rgb is connected to the hub
then this cable should solve the problem
does this cable need to be powered by the power supply?

Hi,
You need to read the instructions man lol or search youtube for visual aids :)

If you want to use some proprietary crazy fan hub with weird connectors, go ahead.

Personally I would grab a couple of those high count 4 pin fan splitters and call it a day. Or if I'm really "bored" solder the cables together into packs to connect to one powered hub.
Hopefully your PWM source can deal with having so many fans to control. I have 4 on one and no problem.

Se você quiser usar algum hub de fã louco proprietário com conectores estranhos, vá em frente.

Pessoalmente, eu pegaria alguns daqueles divisores de ventilador de alta contagem de 4 pinos e encerraria o dia. Ou se eu estiver realmente "entediado", soldar os cabos em pacotes para conectar a um hub energizado.
Esperançosamente, sua fonte PWM pode lidar com tantos ventiladores para controlar. Eu tenho 4 em um e nenhum problema.

I'm sorry but I don't understand

Hi,
A lot of visual aids around here


Sadly like I said Thermaltake is garbage

Hi,
Thermaltake sucks lol
I looked at one older youtube video and their wiring is a basket case affair :D
Software to control this nonsense is even worse.

Hi,
Case is a case
Send back the garbage fans and you'll never have to deal with their software.

I was going to do that, but I don't know of any other fan brand with 200 mm fans, so I chose fans from thermaltake

Hi,
Two on the front of the case ?
Yeah research bud before buying but good luck looks like you got your wiring figured out now.
