Glossary

Power source

Type of power connector for the cooling system. Power is usually output through the motherboard, for this the following connectors are most often used:

3-pin. Three-pin connector; Today it is considered obsolete, but it is still widely used.

4-pin. Plug with 4 pins. Its main advantage is the ability to automatically adjust the rotation speed via PWM (for more details, see "Speed controller").

These two standards are mutually compatible: a 3-pin fan can be connected to a 4-pin connector on the motherboard, and vice versa (unless PWM is available in both cases).

Much less common are options such as 2-pin, installed in some inexpensive fans; 6-pin, used in cooling systems with RGB backlighting, which requires a rather powerful additional power supply; 7-pin and 8-pin, similar in their specifics to a 6-pin connector; as well as power supply via a standard MOLEX plug provided in separate case fans.
