CWatsonJr Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I recently purchased a RM850i and Corsair spec-02 case. I moved all my components over to the new case and all is working great, except for the fans. I have the rear fan plugged into the mobo and that is working fine. Unfortunately, I have only one connector on my mobo for a case fan so the front fan couldn't be connected. Today, I purchased 3 more Corsair 120mm fans and 4 cables that have a 4 pin molex connector (with 2 male pins) on one end and a 3 pin (male) connector on the other. I put the new fans in the case, connected all the fans to the male to male cables and all 4 male-male to the PSU peripheral 4 pin molex (female connectors) cable. I powered up the computer and the fans connected to the PSU are not working. I'm at a loss as to why the fans aren't working. Ideas? Thank you in advance.

CWatsonJr Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 This is the cable I am using between the fans and the peripheral molex cable. http://www.frys.com/product/2585841?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWatsonJr Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Ugh. I figured out the problem. The male-male cables are wired on the 5 volt side of the molex. Back to the drawing board to find 12 volt cables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
