Make one yourself. It is not that hard.

I know, but I need more than one, and were just wondering if it is possible to buy  them, as I couldn't find one...

You can buy a 10 pack of female headers for like a dollar on ebay or maybe less. I paid like 75 cents for some a couple months ago. Then the pins are that cheap as well.

eBay stuff usually takes like at least a month to arrive, but I am probably going to end up with ordering some :P

Took me about a week to get mine, they shipped from china too. Was the best shipping speed for across the globe I have ever seen. It is worth getting them for the price, just to have extras laying around. Never know when you might need to replace a fan header on something or just shorten the cable to the exact length you need and not have to worry about tying up the excess wire. :)

 

Shipping on ebay has been a great experience the past 6 months for me. Stuff arriving in less than a week from thousands of miles away. It is a lot better than it was about 6 years ago ordering stuff.

Yeah, I have been ordering stuff continuously for like 2-3 Years, and I bet shipping to US is much faster than to Norway :P

Using fan splitters may be your best option. May I ask, though, what do you need them for?

I cannot be held responsible for any bad advice given.

I've no idea why the world is afraid of 3D-printed guns when clearly 3D-printed crossbows would be more practical for now.

My rig: The StealthRay. Plans for a newer, better version of its mufflers are already being made.

Oh, I see. If you refer to plugging a fan into the male plug, I don't think they're meant to be used that way as the male 4pin will probably only have the pwm and sense wires attached.

I think I am going to buy some, as the shipping is faster, and it is a pain in the ass to make cables this long, and sleeve them :P

Okay, apparently I got my males and females mixed up (don't worry, this doesn't happen often)

Sure, that'll work.

Just a side note be careful not to use too many fans or too high amperage fans on a single motherboard header, since they usually can supply a max of 1Amp.

I know, I am going to be running them of a Lamptron FC-8, which they claim can push 30W per channel
