What do I plug the power for my fan hub into?

[Jaalhu]

I just bought a six fan pack from Asiahorse, and I have them all screwed in, I just don’t know where to plug the power for the fan hub. I have an adapter from my semi modular psu, but it looks like it goes into the motherboard. I think I might have to buy a PCI-E to molex, but I’m not sure.

Its the bane of my computer building with cases that still use Molex power. Just go to Sata power, its easier to use and all powersupplies have Sata power. You may have to find the Sata to Molex or Pcie to molex cable.

Will try that, thanks!

So, I found a pcie to molex, and it runs the fans, but not the rgb. I also have found a molex to SATA, but don’t know where to plug the SATA part into. I think it might be the wrong type of connection, because I would need to now buy a SATA to pcie, then plug the SATA to molex into the molex connected to the hub.

Update: got all of the cables in, and all that it does is prevent the pc from turning on, so I think I might need a molex to pcie if that is even a thing...

Nope, you need a SATA to Molex converter. The cable should have a SATA receptor similar to HDD or SATA SSD, then your molex plug must be female type. The one you bought is Molex to SATA converter.

 

Anyway, I do notice your PSU has some ports without anything plugging in. Do you still have the PSU box? Maybe there's molex cable included (sometimes known as peripheral cables).

Ok, that is one thing I thought might be wrong, Don’t have a molex cable or anything like that in my psu box, thanks though!
