Lotsa fans?

knuckledragger · 01-18-02, 08:18 AM

Howdy all.

I want to put at least 4 fans total in my new system. MSI 694T Pro MB with C500, hopefully OC'ed. (Eh, it's all I can afford right now.)

If my MB only has 2 fan connections how/where do I hook up the extra fans?

Thanks in advance.

Get a splitter and some fans that are 4-pin instead of 3.

Most case fans have a 4 pin connector with a pass-through that lets you connect them in a chain to the powersupply connectors.

When you have double digit fans (more than 10) we can talk "lotsa fans".
