Fan connectors / spliters

[MrPotatoHead]

Hello, its my first time building a pc so i have very little knowledge.

My motherboard only has 1 4-Pin header for the case fan and i have 5 case fans. My fans are not PWM fans so the motherboard cant control the fans, therefore i want to connect them all to the PSU. My question is, what adapters do i need for my fans to connect to the PSU?


PSU: Corsair RM550x
Case fans: 3 x Corsair AP120 3-Pin 2 x SP120 3-Pin
Motherboard: Asus H110M-A/M.2

RM550x PSU

I have seen 4pin molex to 3 x 3-Pin adaptors , but where would this plug in my PSU?

Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question, like i said its my first time and i have no experience what so ever.

thanks for reading and helping.

you wouldn't plug it directly into the psu....you would need to use the cable that came with the psu. one of the peripheral cables should have a 4 pin molex on it.

Just plug a Molex connector (Corsair calls it a peripheral connector) from the power supply into the adapter PCB then plug in your fans.
