Want to be sure of something before I order my loop parts.

Tuesday, February 11th 2020, 9:55pm

I am working on a water cooling loop and intend to use the D5 next. I will be using a total of 7 noiseblocker B12-P 120mm fans.

I am hoping that I can connect a splitty9 / splitty9 active to the D5 next and have the fans respond to accordingly.

Am I right in this assumption or am I missing something

Thanks in advance! :D

p.s is the d5 next compatible with the heatkiller tanks?

Hello i dont know if i understood your question but with splitty9 you distribute power + 1 single PWM signal for every slot and retrieve 1 Tachy signal back

Just wondering if the D5 next will have enough power to run the 7 fans or if i need the boost granted by the splitty9 active.

B12-P has 1.92W consumption, so 7*1.92=13.44W and you have 25W fan power. So yes D5 Next should be able to power your fans!

Had mine setup with 8 fans and they could not reach full RPM so I added a Silverstone 8-Port PWM Fan Hub and it works great. I think the splitty9 would be a good choice also.

Was that a regular or the "active" splitty9?

Did not use Splitty9 I used the Silverstone 8-Port PWM Fan Hub that is similar to the Active it is powered. :thumbup:

Not got any experience with Silverstone products. Reliable?
