Okay, so I recieved my new case yesterday, an antec x-telstar. It's got 3 fans which all use a molex connector for power.It also has a built-in fan controller (single knob, controls up to 5 via "daisy chain") and a built in display for temp, db of sound in case, and fan speed. The connector for each fan splits into two molex connectors. one male, one female. The display on the front also has a male/female molex cable. But the fan controller is only a male molex plug.
The issue is that once I daisy chain everything, it always ends up with a male molex connector at the end. My PSU has only male molex connectors (not sure if that's normal or not?) and the case came with no molex adapters. Do I need to buy a splitter of some kind, or am I "dasiy-chaining" them incorrectly?
Here's the best visual representation I can produce. FanController>Male>---Fan1>Female>---Fan1>Male>---Fan2>Female>---Fan2>Male>---Fan3>Female>---Fan3>Male>---
CaseDisplay>Female>---CaseDisplay>male>--- No way to plug in power from there because all the molex on my PSU are male.
