Provided the one wire is 12v then yes but I would urge you to reconsider getting that fan
sounds like the 1 yellow wire is the sensor plug and not the power. If its power via molex you can re arrange the plug so it powers off the 5v rail rather than 12v. Just check it starts up ok on the 5v rail.
Are the wires in the molex the same gauge as the wire in the 3 pin? if so, then you could remove the molex plug, then cut the pins off, strip the wires a bit and re-crimp with pins that are for the 3pin connetor. That would allow you to connect it to a 3pin header. checkout some tutorials on crimping for more info.
Its does require some tools and research, but certainly doable.
Maybe I'm missing something but why not just plug the 3 pin cable from the fan into your fan controller?
No need to mess around with the 3 pin to molex adapter.
OT, I love the review on this from a user
These fans are amazing. I use one on VRM's of card I am benching. One on RIVE VRM or on Z77 I put that on RAM.
More output power than me on serious high protein diet!!! and does not smell either bonus!!!
Probably less money and work to get a lower RPM fan? That said I bet you have some good airflow now
