One of PWM 4 wires fan advantage is, as long the psu is capable, just re-route the pos and neg wire directly to the psu, the fan will be powered directly from there, while the pwm and rpm wires still connected at the mobo header.

So even the fan is gazillion watt and the psu is gazilllion watt capable as well , the fan speed control capability and rpm reading from the mobo will be the same with above wiring.
