What hardware controller do I need and how would I set it up?

I have a Artic F8 80m fan that has only 3 pins on it. I am getting a Dell Optiplex 990 and thought it would be better if I replace the fans that game with it with better ones.

So I just got my fans finally, and turns out the fans on the computer that I am trying to replace are 5 pin fans not 3 pin, can anyone help me find a adapter that has a 3 pin male to a 5 pin female? Or does it not matter and I can just hook up the 3 pin fan to the 5 pin on the motherboard?

Found it... apparently this product works 4 pins to 3 pins as well as 3 pins to 4 pins... welp... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01h0OZC9W

So, when looking deeper into my motherboard, it turns out that my computer has 4 pins, and the fans that I got, https://www.amazon.com/ARCTIC-Standard-Cooler-Configuration-possible/dp/B002QVFN7G/ which only has 3 pins... Is there any way to turn a 3 pin to a 4 pin? Like an adapter of some kind?

I just found all of the fans/stuff that I would need Fans: https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-Expansion-Exhaust-Connector-FANCASE/dp/B0000510SS/ https://www.amazon.com/Vantec-SP-FC70-BL-Spectrum-System-Adjustable/dp/B000233ZMU/ Replacement fans https://www.amazon.com/ARCTIC-Standard-Cooler-Configuration-possible/dp/B002QVFN7G/ https://www.amazon.com/ARCTIC-Standard-Cooler-Configuration-possible/dp/B0037AUS4S/ Other: https://www.amazon.com/Manhattan-15-Pin-Female-Splitter-308977/dp/B002LBROAA/ https://www.amazon.com/Timetec-1600MHz-PC3L-12800-Unbuffered-Desktop/dp/B00IV19HZE/

Seems that it is currently unavailable on basically everywhere(new egg & amazon)

Yup exactly like that! By chance are there also bigger/powerful options or no that you can find?

So... since my CPU is super close to the GPU slots, and it never hearts for more cooling, I thought I can get one of these https://www.amazon.com/GDSTIME-Graphic-Card-Graphics-Cooler/dp/B07H5KPY8P/ except not for GPUs. Let me explain. Problem is that my computer that I just got doesn't have a fan in front, meaning it can't suck the air in/out, I was wondering if anyone knows a fan that goes on the GPU slots that is able to suck air out or not since apparently I can't find one.

So I have a AVerMedia HD 2, and I want to see if I can record videos onto my other computer with it, for some reason, everything appears to be moved to the top left when I view it, but when I view it with my nintendo switch for example, it works perfectly normal, tried contacting support but no response yet. However when I view it through my monitor it works perfectly for some odd reason. Anyone had this problem before?

I tried F12 and it didn't work and F10 didn't work either, when I do F10 my monitor now isn't even picking up a signal from it

Are those fans the same size as the fan in the computer? Also is there a video on how to install them? I have no idea, I honestly just want a fan upgrade to keep my CPU cooled. The more fans the more the computer is gonna be cooled I guess?

By case fan I think you are talking about the cover of the top, I had that remove for you guys to have a better view inside the pc. Also how to I buy a fan controller, install it, and how do I upgrade the fans/what fans do I need to buy?

So, I bought myself a new computer called HP EliteDesk 800 G1, the computer is completely fantastic and surprisingly way cheaper and powerful than those other high tech expensive computers. The fans are outdated, I can't control them, and it doesn't seem that I can change the fan speed since for some reason it doesn't give me the option to access the bios. So... anyone know how to upgrade, maybe add more fans, and also be able to control the fan speed on this old thing? I have no idea what to look for and this is basically my first time upgrading any computer that I ever own. Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0784F3NHF

According to the bios it is saying I am getting 2400 rpm atm on idle, can't tell what it is on when I start to play games on it.

Yup I can, on the top says HP Setup Utility and the bottom it says "Version 2.17.1255. Copyright (C) 2016 American Megatrends, Inc." if that is any helpful. I looked around a bit and under power then thermal it shows the CPU Fan speed, and there is no way for me to change it other than to see the fan speed.

So, I have a computer with a fan, for some reason they decided it to be system managed, I can't find out how to change the speed manually, and HP support won't help me because it may cause my computer "overclocking or over-throttling causing hardware malfunctions" which makes no sense. I don't care about how loud it is, a fan is a fan, it's job is to cool the system not just blow at the speed of a snail. I got a HP All in one 24-g014 if that helps out.

Guessing I am going out to IKEA to get a chair, thanks for the advice though you guys given me!

Here is another pic explaining everything wrong with it if that helps Also it feels like you are just laying on blanks of wood with a thin blanket on top if I haven't said already

See the giant looking weird lump on my chair where you sit at? That's the butt mark Also honestly I don't care if it is a gaming chair or office chair, I just want a chair that does a good job on being a simple chair, comfortable, and can last a very long time. The end. I might just go to Stables or IKEA because you can't really tell how comfortable or how long it might last either by looking through the screen.

So I had my gaming chair for about a year, and honestly, this was the worse chair that I had ever in my whole life. Some pieces were missing when I got it, the leather felt super cheap, and I had to put a blanket on top of it just to get some cushion. That's why I am here, I really need help and I am in the market finally to be able to get a new chair. The max I might go is maybe $175 to $150. I need a chair that well... not able to turn into this chair that I got, like the leather slowly going away, more cushion instead of just feeling like I am on wood, like for god sake the chair shows butt and back marks and I haven't sat on it today. I am thinking of maybe getting a Respawn 110 chair or a 900, but the 900 seems a bit too extra. Anyways... anyone got recommendations for a gaming good chair that: doesn't wear out over time, not made with cheap material, good cushion, and whatever you think is required for a chair. I really need help but I have no idea where to start. If you wondering about colors, just make it simple and just do either black with gray or just completely black.

Less ram/capping the ammount of ram for a server will just make the server barely playable, chunks would not load correctly, tons of lag will be there when a player is loading a new chunk, and maybe more. It doesn't seem to make sense how using a USB as RAM will just give the computer even worse performance than what it was originally.

Isn't ram still better than having no ram? Also what if you are just using the extra ram for like for example a server for a game(Like minecraft which uses a ton of ram), would it still work?

You know those prebuilt computers that won't let you upgrade your ram? I was just wondering, is it possible to plug something into the computer through USB that will add ram to the computer? Like basically a flashdrive but except giving more storage it gives more ram? If that exist then please tell me how do I get it, if it doesn't exist, million dollar idea?

Thanks for the help
