I checked the attached documents and saw the fan headers you mentioned. They appear to be daisy-chained fans connected to the PSU, which likely caused the motherboard to miss them. The headers don’t match the standard Cha_Fan design, so they probably aren’t compatible. Splitters might work as a workaround, but I’m unsure how to set them up correctly. Let me know if you need further guidance.

The brand of that fan is similar to a standard 4-pin design, though it might be a custom model. It could be proprietary and requires linking to the fan hub, which is connected to the motherboard. The issue of detection arises because with daisy chaining, only one fan is recognized when all fans are connected together. This approach helps maintain a consistent fan curve across the system. Typically, I chain exhaust fans together and separate intake fans, using an app to manage them—renaming each as pump, exhaust, or intake so they follow their respective curves.

The setup lacks a central hub and the fans aren't linked to the motherboard directly but instead to the power supply. I'm still unsure about the specific header involved.

I owned an alphacool AIO a few years back with a dual connector setup on the fans. One side connected to the fan, the other provided 5V for the RGB. Regarding the RGB, it was the female connector with three wires, not the male one with four pins. The grey-colored wires in that connector are typically used for RGB lighting. It's a bit confusing since my fans have the RGB configuration reversed compared to what you described.

Everyone has four wires and four pins, all linked together. This setup is an air cooling system, and an AIO plays a role in this process. How does it benefit you?

Oh no, I really tried my best. Let me know if you need anything else. Goodbye!

I'm really struggling right now. It's starting to get very hot, and I'm feeling overwhelmed.

It might be proprietary pins. Could there be an alternative way to use them without a hub?

Looking for details? Try searching the case name along with "4 pin fan connector" online.
