Boom goes the dynamite

That looks exactly like my fans & remote! I emailed Skytech to see if they recommend something, but if I had to lay money on it, I would bet they'll say Gamdias. Thanks again, to both of you. The real MVP's

It's a prebuilt from Skytech. The controller has their logo on it and i cant find a brand or even model on the fans themselves. Never crossed my mind that its a proprietary connector. That's probably the reason for the confusion.

My pc has a fan controller (pictured) and I was wanting to add a couple more case fans to the bottom of the case. Problem is I'm not sure which type this is or which type of fans I need to buy. I've seen 3 pin, 4 pin & molex connections in online stores, but this controller doesn't seem to match either of those. There are 8 pins in each slot, but when searching for 8 pin fans I couldn't find anything. What is the connector type that fits this? What type of case fan should I search for? Does connecting a fan to this single plug cover power, fan speed, and rgb lighting? Any advice would be m

Appreciate that man definitely an awesome community. Was checking out your profile. Your rig is spec'd out. U got a pic anywhere on this forum?

All of my friends grew up as console gamers. I'm still trying to show them the error of their ways that I recently learned myself. I don't think I'll be going anywhere either. Came from a few reddit subs. Guess that's why I felt a lil "less than" for having a prebuilt.

Thanks man. I'm gonna have to wait many years, no doubt. Wife would kill me if I even mentioned trying to buy another pc lol. Only regret is I didn't put it together myself. If I knew then what little I know now I may have taken the plunge. Just so overwhelming when ur brand new to the game. Looks like u have been on this forum for a good minute.

Just wanted to say greetings to everyone and appreciate how great this community has been in my short time being a member. Had a question, and was answered within 24 hours. Although the answer wasn't what I wanted to hear, I heeded the advice of those who I'm sure had much more experience than myself. Looking forward to lurking more and learning everything I can so that hopefully I will have enough courage and confidence in a few years to build my next pc myself.

Now I think I'm just gonna toss it. Appreciate the advice.

First off, I'm brand new to building/modifying. I took a hard drive out of an old junk pc and was wanting to install it onto my own for extra storage. Problem is I cant find a place on my mobo for the 40 pin ribbon, and the only tutorial vids I could find on the net are for SATA connections. I've included a pic with all of the connections on the HDD. It's a wd400 enhanced IDE. Is there a way I could possibly rig this up? Or is this hard drive too outdated for a modern pc?
