Pros & Cons

Pros

  • ✓ Connects 12 fans plus ARGB lighting from one 108x50x21mm hub
  • ✓ SATA direct power keeps output stable under 12-fan loads
  • ✓ Syncs 5V 3-pin ARGB effects with motherboard lighting software
  • ✓ 4-pin PWM headers on both sides for tidy left-right routing
  • ✓ 500mm cable reaches bottom-mount SATA leads in most mid-towers

Cons

  • ✗ SATA power cable not included, so you must supply your own
  • ✗ Blocks 12V 4-pin RGB devices entirely; wrong plug risks damage
  • ✗ Only the red header reports fan RPM back to the motherboard
  • ✗ Plastic housing, not the metal shell some cable-management builds want

Key Features

  • [Stable Output] The ARGB and FAN Hub X12 IR series are SATA power direct outputs that maintain stable output under high loads. SATA wire is purchased by yourself and is not included with this product.
  • [Easy cable management] The product is not only the lighting interface connector of the ARGB fan, but also the hub of the PWM fan, connecting the power supply interface and lighting interface of 12 PC fans at the same time, and there are 4PIN interfaces and 3PIN ARGB interfaces on both sides to connect, plug and play, which can keep the cables of the ARGB fan lights and PWM fans neat (Note: 12V 4PIN RGB interface devices are not supported, please do not plug in!)
  • [Support ARGB and PWM] The fan hub not only supports ARGB fans, ARGB light strips and other lighting devices, but also supports PWM fan interfaces, which can realize the lighting effect synchronization of 3PIN 5V lighting interfaces and the synchronization speed of PWM fans after connecting the corresponding interfaces of the motherboard
  • [Technical details] This product has a red interface for PWM speed recognition interface, due to the limitation of the PWM motherboard IC reading principle, only the speed of a single fan plugged into the red interface is recognized
  • [Specifications] Model: FAN and ARGB HUB X12 IR White, size: 108x50x21mm, material: plastic, color: White, cable length: 500mm, easy to solve the situation of insufficient ARGB lighting interface and fan power supply interface of the motherboard
