Greetings guys, I'm new to the forum cheers. I would like to ask a question about how to connect my case fans which has 3 at the top of the case to my motherboard. Motherboard is ASUS ROG STRIX X370-F GAMING.
My actual problem is that the fans are connected but they do not get power since I see a cable that says fan power controller which is one of the old types and connected nowhere.

This is the cable kind of but painted black (Actually only the far right one ignore the 2 on the left). https://ibb.co/nbntZ3s

My PSU is a 650 Watt gold Corsair don't know if that plays any role.

Now I searched motherboard and I cannot get a clue on where to connect the Case Fans since the one cable I have is not compatible.

Any tips? I would appreciate it.

The connector on the right is referred to as a Molex connector.

What you may need is some adapter that converts the Molex connector to the appropriate fan plug/port/connector.

Here is a link from within this Forum that provides a variety of suggestions and ideas:

Details matter so read, look, and match carefully.

Google for more information if and as necessary with respect to your fan's power and cable connections.
