We need 12V for our fans (Arctic P14 RGBs) and their RGB LEDs. This is accomplished with a SHNITPWR 12V AC adapter, plugged into a barreljack switch. This barreljack switch is then adapted to a 12V-only SATA plug (SATA normally carries 3.3V, 5V, and 12V). The SATA plug enters a 12V PWM+RGB hub. All fans are plugged directly into this hub, one port of which carries through tachometer readings. | We need 12V for our fans (Arctic P14 RGBs) and their RGB LEDs.
