Your motherboard should have another slot for it. There is the CPU fan and at least one other fan. Your fan should have come with an adapter to plug into your PSU, usually converts to a 4 pin molex.

According to the manual for your motherboard, you have three fan headers in total. CPU Fan is at the top, which should already be occupied. SYSFAN1 is at the bottom of your board. SYSFAN2 is right in the middle of your motherboard, right next to the MOLEX connector and above the first PCI-E lane. Hope this helps.

as i mentioned both system fan1 and 2 slot already reserved as well cpu fan slot is also used by using corsair h55 liquid cooler .Is there any other solution to use bitfenix 140, 3 pin fan wire in any connector ?

All I know of is an adapter to convert a 4 pin molex to your 3 pin fan connector. Will make your fan run 100% all the time

Connects to your psu, I bought one from a local computer store for $5
