So I bought this case that come with fans and they have a hub that all the fans plug into, but the only way to power the hub is by Molex. My motherbord (msi z390 a pro) or my psu (evga 650 g5) doesn’t have molex connecters, what do I do now, is there adapaters for molex that plugs into motherbord or my psi. The molex has a male and female side

Check your PSU cable box

If you don't have the extra cables that came with the power supply, maybe you could use something like this if you have a free sata power connector.

There are cheapo 12v whatever to molex adapters available in a lot of places.  What cables do you have? Failing that what open ports on cables used for other things?  They can be gotten with fairly long wiring for longer reaches.  They tend to be quite ugly.  And generally red/yellow  for some reason.  Looking at that fan controller mess the beauty ship has sailed I think.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.
