[SOLVED] How do i use these molex connector?

[mashklanov]

Hello, im having a problem with my first build and i have this extra fan.

The problem is how do i connect this? I tried to search through google and it seems doesnt solve my problem

the rgb connector has 3 pins while the PSU connector has 2 pins

You would connect one of the Molex 4 pin connectors from the PSU to the 4 pin Molex that is labeled "To PSU 12V Connector."

If that sounds confusing you need to supply more information about your PSU and what cables it has or can have if modular.

The adapter in your hand only uses 5v power and ground (the red wire and black wire respectively) and does not use the 12V yellow Molex wire, but is made to attach to a Molex 4 pin standard connector.

I tried to connect the " To PSU 12V Connector" and the fan spins and the led is not lighting upthe only problem is where do i connect the RGB Connector? When i connect it to the PSU my PC doesnt powering on

Can't see the "RBG Connector" pins just the label -- what type and size pins are on each end and do the three wires at the top attach to it directly?

What Motherboard do you have ?

the rgb connector has 3 pins

Yes, I saw that but are they small pins that look like they will attach to the motherboard fan control or larger? In other words do they look like a Molex with one pin missing -- the one that would attach to the yellow 12V pin?

What case model if the RBG are integrated or what model lights? If they are part of the case, the case manual will specify the connection.

It is molex

Then the only connection that would make any sense would be to a Molex power connector to supply 5V (red) and ground (black). Often with that type of connector set, you can stack them -- plug them into one another if you don't have enough spare Molex connectors, which are getting more sparse on modern PSUs compared to the old ones.
