Review the fan curve configurations in EVGA software; it might be configured for zero RPM if available.
I experimented with it a while, used the 3-pin connection and now the fans are running. But they aren’t listed in the EVGA utility RPM area. Still, at least they’re functioning. I might just keep it going, though I’m puzzled as to why their speed isn’t being recorded.
Be mindful that on 3-pin headers you miss the PWM signal, likely because they aren't linked to the AIO, which explains their absence now.
Regarding the splitter setup, two fans are connected to a single unit. One end has four pins while the other has three. Two fans are sending data back to the same motherboard header, which creates problems. The splitter relies on the RPM signal from the four-pin fan and treats both as identical speeds. You'll receive one speed reading from the header, but both fans will run at the same rate only if they're actually the same model. Concerning the CLC compatibility, the user manual lacks detailed guidance and offers little support. It appears there are ongoing issues reported with the software as well.
Thanks! I was too busy at work to search, and the 2080ti didn’t respond well to the SF600. I’m looking for a new PSU now. It seems they failed right from startup. If you were in my shoes, keep it linked to the AIO using the 3-pin or connect it through a splitter on the motherboard header. The case only has two radiator fans. There’s a monitoring program Jay developed that tracks everything—I’ll likely check that out.
Are the AIOs limited to three pins? If yes, you’ll need three-pin DC fans. Four-pin connectors support both PWM and DC, but four-pin PWM models require the fourth pin. Their wiring differs, though you can change it on the motherboard from PWM to DC if needed. Three pins control speed with voltage, while four pins use PWM pulses via a separate wire. That’s quite a difference. OCP? I might reconsider my SF600 setup. A 2080TI should only consume about 10 more watts than my 6800 XT. Edited: Planning to step outside soon—will respond slowly.
It features four fan ports that end up as a three-pin for the CPU connector, which seems unusual. Yes, it wouldn’t power on at all initially, even though the motherboard lights stayed on. Are you looking at the Gold or Plat model? I suspect the Plat version might work better. I won’t waste time—I’ll try to find a 750w or 850w alternative. It looks like the issue shouldn’t be too big, since it came from a setup with a 600w PSU and is only slightly larger than the 6700XT, which ran smoothly except for occasional driver hiccups.
This setup is unusual, but I’m experiencing similar problems with my SF600. I was unsure if I was targeting OCP, but after chatting with Johnny and testing with a temporary cooler, I realized I was actually hitting OTP with my 5800x in an ITX case. I’m using mobile now, but the Project Hot Box link shows temperature adjustments at the end. Switching cases resolved the issue. If it’s still OTP instead of OCP, better airflow for the PSU should help. The shutdown and restart behavior suggests overheating, so a quick reboot might not be enough.
