Greetings,
I am building a PC and I am confused with my case fans. Before I explain the problem I will include the full list of the parts I've ordered:
Ryzen 3 2200g
Seasonic S12II-520 520W Bronze (SS-520GB)
MSI B450 TOMAHAWK AM4
8GB DDR4 Corsair Vengeance 3000Mhz Kit
SanDisk Ultra 3D 2.5 500GB SATA3 SDSSDH3-500G-G25
Western Digital Caviar Blue 3.5 1TB 7200rpm 64MB SATA3 WD10EZEX
Deepcool Kendomen
Firstly I want to say, that I've never build a PC before and to be honest I didn't really know anything about the PC parts until about 2-3 weeks ago. I decided to build my own PC, instead of paying someone else to do it. After reading and watching lots of videos about where and how to install all PC parts I decided to check my case and prepare myself until my HDD is here ( which will be here be tomorrow ).
I have watched many videos about the Deepcool Kendomen case and none really shows the two top fan connections.
Here is a link to the case - http://www.deepcool.com/product/case/2015-02/9_1721.shtml
It has 5 fans - 1rear, 2 front and two fans at the top of the case.
The rear fan and the two front fans each have a small three pin motherboard connector and a large 4 pin molex connector for the PSU ( if what I see corresponds to what I've learned ).
The problem is the the two top fans have only three pin small connectors ( for the motherboard and they don't have large 4 pin molex connector, as the other three fans ) and they each are connected to a what it seems to be a fan extension cables, which fan extensions cables seem to come from the top front part where the power and fan controller buttons are.
Along with the cables of the usb, hd audio, usb 3.1 and the really small cables ( hdd, power ), that come from the front of the case and through the side of the case, comes a large four pin molex connector. I am not sure if that large four pin molex connector, that comes from the front of the case ( along with the other cables ) is part of the top fans extentions. However that large four pin molex connector does not have small three pin connector for the motherboard, as the the rear and the two front fans. So I'm not sure if that connector is a part of the fan extentions, connected to the top fans ( only guessing as it's not possible to see ) and if that is the case, does it mean it has to be attached to the power supply ( as it doesn't have a connector for the motherboard )?
I can't take pictures, since my phone display is broken and it will be some time, till I get a new phone.
Also, i am sorry for the extremely long post, but I tried to explain as best as I could.
I will appreciate any help, whether from people, who have build a PC with that case or if anyone manages to understand what I am talking about.
I do have a manual and I looked at it but honestly i am unsure of it. And I did watch many video guides for that case. The ones, that happen to be more detailed are in other languages and the english ones are not as detailed (specifically on the the top fans connection ).
Thanks in advance!
