Hello there, I have the zulman z3 plus, Which has a fan controller on the top, ive managed to connect the front and top fans to the Motherboard, but having some issues with the rear as it has this weird bulkly 4 pin connectors which are completely different to all the other fan connectors, any help !!??

I have already put this on the cases thread but had no reply

4 pin and bulky sounds like molex connector. Check your PSU cables for a matching connector.

Also, if you have attached the other fans to the motherboard, the case's fan controller will be useless? Don't know if that's okay with you.

Ok this may be a problem, Not sure how to hock that all up then.. I figured the fan controller would work via the motherboard.. i guess not, How would i hock this all up ??

Been looking at some vids and apparently the fan controller is a bit poo, and you might as well run the front and top fans from the motherboard, as you have them already. :)

The rear fan with the 4-pin Molex goes into a molex connector running from the power supply.

That's how to do it easy.

If you still wanted to use the case's fan controller - it only takes two 3-pin fans (which connect into 2-pin headers on the controller). So you'd choose two fans (presumably the top two) and use those with the controller, and plug the power molex for the controller into another molex connector running from the power supply. And then plug the front 3-pin fan into motherboard.
