dvtrap Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 HI, guys...I have just built a system with the white 500r..I want to install 2 Corsair 120 mm white led fans in the top bay, but I don't know how I would power the fans not using molex cables. these fans use the 3 pin Corsair setup. Is there a molex power adaptor Corsair sells for their proprietory connector fans. thanks for any info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvtrap Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 Attn. to RamGuy: I bought a couple of molex to 3 pin fan adaptors from Newegg thinking I could install a couple of Corsair white led fans to the top of my 500r white Corsair case with these adaptors...no way. How am I to install the fans using the proprietory fan connectors?? I don't believe Corsair would sell a case that can adapt 10 fans and not sell Corsair fans to fill the case. Am I missing something on installing these fans.?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvtrap Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 im not familiar with these fans but if you can post a pic of the connector,id be glad to find an adapter for you. Thanks for the offer but I have decided not to fool around anymore with Crucial fans for this case. Bought a couple of Xigmatek 120 mm white led fans from Newegg. These fans have the 4 pin PWM mobo connectors so I can control the fan speed from the bios. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
