View Full Version : Stupid question...But I don't know
How do You power all the Fans In the Case and On your Radiator(if Going Water Cooling)? Is there a Card or place to plug in all those Fans. I'm getting the Abit KT7A-Raid board by the way...if that matters.

The fans should generally come with molex power connectors, the same ones used by hard drives and cd drives. Then you just hook them up to the psu ATX cable. Some of the lower power case fans have the smaller 3-pin connectors that fit on the mobo (like the cpu fan uses) - there's normally 3 or 4 power headers on the mobo for those, but as they can't supply much power only 60mm or low power 80mm fans run off these. Just check your mobo manual to see which fan header to plug which into - some (I think the abit KT7-R with the new bios does this) won't power up unless a cpu fan is attached to the right header.
