Question No pins for case fan on motherboard?

[iamunderthewater]

I've just upgraded my system. I used a microAtx board, only realizing it had no pins for case fans when it was too late. This is my build:

PCPartPicker Part List: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WFNPf9
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700X 3.7 GHz 8-Core Processor
Motherboard: MSI B450M PRO-M2 MAX Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard
Memory: G.Skill Aegis 16 GB (1 x 16 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory
Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 970 4 GB STRIX Video Card
Case: Antec Eleven Hundred V2 ATX Mid Tower Case

Am I missing something and I can actually connect case fans?
If not, are they even necessary in my case (pun intended)?
If they are, can I split them off from somewhere?

MSI on their web page say the board has a 4 pin system fan connector. I would check the motherboard manual to locate it.

https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B450M-PRO-M2-MAX/Specification says it has
1 x 4-pin system fan connector so you can connect 2 3 or 4 pin case fans to it.

There's a 3-Pin cable going out from my psu (for the psu fan I think). I assumed I would need to plug it into the system fan connector so that the fan can be controlled by the motherboard.

No, not from PSU, don't by any chance connect to MB. Case fan should be connected to MB, 4pin to which powers it and controls it.
