PC Fan Wiring to a 5 Slot Adapter

sflshreddin · Nov 18, 2012

Hey guys I have 4 Arctic F12 Cooling fans I need to wire.
They haven't come in the mail yet but I believe they are 12v.
Could I power them with this? (Picture below, left)

Bump, really need some help!

Looks like it should work, where you find it at, Ebay?

Is that power supply adjustable to output 12V?
I see it says 36V max.
If so, it should run all 5 fans wired in parallel @12V.

350 milliamps is not enough to spin 4 fans IMO.

I'll be using 4 fans, will I get more than 12v each if I use 2 for example?

The wiring looks weird in the picture.. like there is only 1 wire for each slot.
I don't want the fans to run at full speed if they are too loud, but I want them to work.
They are 74.5 CFM each and I'm using a cab 150 x 50 x 60 cm.

those are 120mm fans, I know most 80mm standard comp fans normally run around .130A or 130Milliamps.
I would say at most you could run 2 of those fans, unless the amperage is independent for each plug in.

Without knowing more info on that power supply I can't really help any more than that.
