HAF X - Fan problems

ST34LTH · 13 Apr 2011 at 21:35

Hey, I got my haf x this morning and ive been building it most of the day,

But ive ran into a problem, the pins the fan comes with the 4 pin molex male dont seem to fit into into any of the cables I have from my PSU, I tried using a 4 pin molex female on my PSU but it doesnt seem to fit. I even tried pushing it in really hard but it still stays extremely loose

I also dont have any 2 pin males on my PSU that I can put into the 2 pin female on the fans.

Right now only option I have is to put them into my Mobo, problem with that is the H70 is taking up 3 of them lol. leaving only 1 slot

Any ideas on what i can do?

I have the XFX 750w Black Edition modular power supply

Thanks

the wire if probably pulling on the pin and making it go at a angle.

Sometimes you just have to give molex connectors a bit of a wiggle to line the pins up with the holes.

As above - the pins are loose in most molex connectors so there is a degree of 'flexibility' in their position in the plug. If in doubt take some photos to show us - don't go poking anything in there especially since it could be live...!

Yeh I just had to push them in abit hard, now its in perfectly.

Im pretty sure its the right one, just it wiggles around inside lol.

Thanks, my first build is almost complete, will probably post pics soon once windows is installed and ive checked temps etc.
