GELID SOLUTIONS PWM Fan Adapter for VGA Cooler Fan

I got this to use with my Xbox one s that had a failing factory fan(it wouldn’t speed up when the system needed it to resulting in sudden shutdowns which hid a power supply issue)After I got this and a quality pc fan the overheat issue went away and the system works great with this and a aftermarket fan.Best part is it’s plug and play.Now with the fan I’ve got in it it’s dead silent all thanks to this adapter.

This cable saved me big time.I have a Sapphire video card that has a faulty fan and just passed it's warranty period. As I started shopping for a completely new graphics card (yay for having to spend an extra $100 I wasn't planning on spending..) I wondered if I could just replace the fan myself. Thankfully I found this adapter cable that enabled me to do just that.I pulled the old fan off and used an extra 120mm one I had laying around. After some zap-strapping it on, the adapter did the rest of the work and has worked flawlessly for controlling the fan speed. Thanks for selling this here on Amazon -- it saved me $90~

Had to buy one of these as I was going to use a card from my last PC build in my new one, however the card wouldn't fit into the new case with the stock fan shroud installed. The card is a Gigabyte Aorus GTX1080 Ti and the case is an Ncase M1. Removed the fan shroud and fans from said card, used this adapter to plug the card into 2 Noctua NF-A12's in the bottom of the case oriented as exhaust. GPU bounces between 1850MHz and 1950MHz (stock speed is 1650MHz) at about 80 degrees Celsius. This is with a custom fan curve that ramps up to 100% at 75 degrees (these fans are quiet so its not really noticeable). Can't ask for much better in a small form factor build.

I used this for my Frankenstein-ed Gigabyte RTX 2080 Windforce. I could not stand how loud the fans would get while gaming, so I used 2 Noctua 120mm Redux fans (1700 RPM) with a splitter in place of the factory shroud/fans from Gigabyte. I tried using the motherboard to control it, but with the 3600x CPU staying so cool with the Arctic Freezer II 280 AIO, it was a chore to get the card to cool as well. That's when I found this and it's an immediate game changer. Can run the card at max clocks and it stays around 61 degrees C (70 degree F room). Prior, the 3 factory fans on the card would keep the card around 72-73 C and sound like a jet. Almost whisper-quiet and good temps. Win/win!

Contrary to its intended use, adapting GPU cooling fans to PWM fans, I used this in a Corsair AX860i Power supply. It's worth mentioning that the internal header for the stock fan is this exact connector, and for reasons I cannot determine. I attempted using this adapter to allow a Noctua NF-F12 fan to replace the now-defunct Yate Loon fan. It worked well in theory, but in practice it was dismal failure because the fan control unit in the actual power supply was the source of the problem. Nothing more exhilarating than learning you have wasted money. At least I have yet another oddball adapter lying around in the very unlikely event that I need it. I will say, though, that even though I ended up not needing it, this adapter comes sleeved in MDPC and is extremely robust. Those who are likely to use this for it intended purpose will be pleased.

Works well, only problem is keeping the connection locked into place. Installed two of these with an RTX 2080 and aftermarket cooler with two noctua fans. They work fine but don’t try to use a fan splitter with these. Each cable in my case, was only able to support one fan.

Upgraded my Xbox One S fan with the adapter connected to my Noctua fan, this made installation a breeze. Just plug in and go. Controls just like a stock fan!

Very utilitarian and functional. If using with a NZXT Kracken adapter plate you will want to attach this cable to the GPU before adding the plate. Reaching up and having to squeeze between the two plates to slide this in is not fun. If the adapter had a 90 degree angle for the female connection to make the attachment easier in a tight space it would be perfect.
