I have a 6 way fan block that is powered by a sata cable, however whenever I attempt to power on just the fans it seems like the fans are running at half speed, one will not even turn on, but yet if I use an adapter to go from molex to sata, everything runs full speed with no issues. the molex cable I have coming from my power supply has 4 ports on it and all 4 are technically being used, for pumps and what not, so id like to avoid running a splitter. I have 6 plug in options for 6pin on my psu and have tried all options, and it seems like sata won't fully power 6 fans, 3 fans or even 1 fan at full speed. Also the sata cable only has one port on it. Any ideas? Another thing the sata cable did not come with my psu, I got it on ebay, and swapped the 6 pin connection on the end as the one that came with it one of the plastic pin covers was square instead of the shape mine is. corsair ax1200w psu, and corsair sp120 fans, in case you needed that.
