What kind on connector does this fan use, Molex or 3/4 pin

Both come in the box. If memory serves, it's a 3 pin "out of the box" and there is a molex adapter
1542463
it has a 3 pin with an adapter already plugged in to it with the big 4 pin for power . so if you want to use the 3 pin just un plug the adapter

It is three pins connecter 2 pins for the power connecter, and the other one is for the fan control speed

Yes, the power supply is connected to the fan via a 4 pin molex connector, the connector itself is not that small, it's like a rectangle 7/8 inch by 3/8 inch.

The three pins are COMM (Ground) +12V and the 3rd one is a tachometer signal which can be used to determine the current fan speed !In short, just don't connect the 3rd pin and you're good to go !PS. on the 4 PIN Molex connectors the 4th pin is a PWM input to control the fan speed.

Your best bet is to get a fan with a 3-pin connector and plug it into one of the "case fan" headers on your mother board, then you can set the speed/temp profile in your BIOS like you do for the CPU fan. You could also buy a 4-pin molex fan and plug it into the power supply as you mentioned. Last, you could get a Y adapter to run it off the 3/4-pin "cpu fan" header on the board but I would not suggest that.

Connect a molex to the fans if you want to use the integrated fan controller. There should be a female molex connector coming for the controller

They use the standard fan connectors. Like this Zalman ZM-MC1 Multi-connector PS to Add Fan

If your talking about the 4 pin molex connectors they attach to your power supply. A suggestion get rid of the stock fans they don't move very much air

I ordered this fan and it does not come with a 3 pin connector. It comes with a voltage regulator, an extension cable, and a y cable. All cables end in a 4 pin.

It's a standard 4 pin male to female connecting peripheral cable found standard with most desktop power supply units. They're used to supply power to just about every thing inside the tower frame. IE: Fans, drives, audio cards ect. They have white connecting pieces. Here is more info, chances are you have extra ones already inside your tower.

No it uses a standard 4 pin MOLEX adapter off a ATX Power supply unit, it comes with the adapter to convert the power to the smaller 4 pin motherboard power connector that most fans use, if you have a extra motherboard fan power connector, you can just connect it to that. Although the MOLEX power is more constant and won't put a drain on the power regulator on your motherboard.

It only connects to 3-Pin fans. Also if you used something like this with your fan you will not get to use the PWM features, as the fan can't be modulated if connected directly to the PSU (Unless there is a dial on the fan).

I purchased the 140 mm, though I would assume they should be the same. the fans themselves are 3 pin if you are going to attach them directly to your motherboard but they also come with 3 pin to molex adapters (which I used) in order to connect them directly to the power supply. I was able to attach two fans in series to one of my power supplies molex strips.

I did not buy the fan with the LED. It was 3 speed so it may have the same connections. Mine had a 3 pin connector. I understand a 3 pin fan will plug into a 4 pin connector. The 4th pin is not used. I had to use the Y cable that came with the fan to connect it to a molex connector from the power supply to get it to work. It did move a lot of air on medium speed and did not make much noise. Worked great for me. Would buy again. Hope that helps.

The PSU itself has standard connectors. You can purchase adaptors to change the 3 or 4 pin case fans into the type this provides. Most fan connectors are provided by the motherboard, in a normal setup.

This fan (as with most) come with the two pin Molex connector .... which connects directly to your motherboard. Most motherboards have at least two of these (one for the processor fan, and the other for a case fan). Not sure how many you plan to connect, but it seems to me that those two are sufficient. Of course, the fan will work with any 12v DC power (direction depending on which way you connect the two wires). How many do you plan to connect, and are you already using the TWO provided 12v connectors on your motherboard?
