Okay so I finally ordered my Coolermaster 932 case during bladk friday weekend for $99 which is $40-$50 less than its priced, and its coming in today.

My mobo only has one sys fan and my psu has one fan connector.

This case is coming with a total of 4 fans. And my other 2 fans will not be powered till i got a molex to 3 pin connector. But i need help finding some.

I know I've seen fan controllers and there around $12 on the one im looking at and another at 18. Is there an easier way to do this?

Can i just wire all my fans to the SYS_FAN1 connection? by splicing all the wire together? Or will this result in a burned out mobo?

Or can i splice them to my PSU?

Trying to find the cheapest solution, so any help will be appreciated

you should be able to connect them to the psu, i wouldnt do it to the mobo as thats for the cpu

check for connectors in your motherboard box, assuming you bought that separately (self build)

which this you should be able to use spare PSU cables to power them

Shuttleu thats exactly what i needed

Do you think i can just splice the wires through a molex 4-pin connector though?

Like cut the 4-pin plug off and conect all 4 fans to those wires thats basically what that product is doing on ebay.

Bob: yea i already have one connected like that, but its only 1x fan connector i still need 2x more

yes you can, the psu should send the power that is needed through the wires

Wait, does this mean fans connect to the PSU *or* the mobo?
