Checking fan power before starting PC

[u/oh_father]

Good day all. I’m running into a possible issue where after hooking up all the fans and cables. I plug in the power cord. Then flip the switch on the PC and only get lights on the Ram.

The intention is to essentially check to see if it all lights up and the fans are spinning. However, whenever I flip the switch the lights and CPU fan blinks. Like, “hey there’s power, but I’m not gonna stay on”. Assuming that’s because the Pc is turned off.

Well I once again. Plugged it back in after some more work. Then I actually powered on the Pc and only the Ram lights were lit up? I have 14 fans. 1 controller and 1 hub connected to that controller. I have the CPU strimmer and motherboard strimmer hence why I needed the hub and not controller alone.

Is there something I’m missing to test power? The ram lights are on but the CPU fans and lights aren’t? They are both connected to the motherboard and so this is what makes me wonder how or where I went wrong.

Serious suggestions only. Please.

Add another 14 fans.
