I've got the following two components :

Gigabyte Z97M-DS3H Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 Micro ATX Motherboard

BitFenix Phenom MATX Cube Case - Midnight Black

I want to plug in 4 fans (5 including cpu cooler) into the motherboard but it only has room for one more sys-fan :confused:

What do I need to get to let me use four fans?

Page 4 is the layout. You can see the sys fan and the cpu fan but nothing more that I can use for more case fans :(

help?
 
I use one of these...

Like the Phanteks but homemade and adjustable and was around a long time before.
 
I went with this :)

Thanks for the help folks. Hope it works.

BTW do the molex connectors not run the fan at 100% all the time? That might prove noisy no?

That's a PWM splitter assembly so provided you attach all 4 pin PWM fans and providing the cable is not faulty then they'll all run under the same PWM curve. If yolu attach 3 pin or 2 pin fans they'll run at 12v.
