3 pin fan to 4 pin - the most important things at a glance

The disadvantage of a 3-pin fan compared to a 4-pin fan is that it does not support PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control, which means that the speed of the fan cannot be controlled as precisely. Therefore, 4-pin fans are mainly used in those areas of application that require precise temperature control. However, both types are used to cool computer components and can usually be mounted on the same connections on the mainboard or graphics card. You can use a 3-pin fan with a Adapter also to a 4-pinConnection connect, only the PWM control remains inoperative. It is also important to note that the pinout for fan connectors differs from that for other components. Basically, we recommend a 4-pin fan if you need precise fan speed control; for standard applications, however, a 3-pin fan is sufficient.
