Fan Controller Help

Just looking at new fan controllers i have apache and viper fans which have the 4pin block

was seriously considering the scythe kaze but it only has a 3pin block no i know you can put a 4 pin into a 3 pin but the KAZE blocks are enclosed hence no way to physically get them in.

And splitter or adaptors available to correct this or even fan controller with open pins so i can just stick the 4 pin onto a 3 pin if need be.

Shame really cause i really liked the look of the scyth controllers

ok i'm officially an idiot

all i need is a normal 30cm 3pin fan exstension cable as it uses a male and female end so i connect the female 3 pin to the fan controller and the male 3pin to the 4pin pwm of the fan .

it's late i'm tired bla bla bla

so will be ordering the kaze master now

lol

never mind the lol i also just found out the kaze master comes with it's own special 3pin to 3/4 pin cable which have to be used, basically you have to plug their supplied cables into the controller then plug your fans into them.

so lots of extra cables to sort out, thats gonna be fun, don't forget a good supply of cable ties then.

ah it's all in prep for the water cooling, so might not even go in yet but can't hurt to try it out first, might use the temp sensors for my coffee when it stops beeping it's safe to drink LOL
