Hi, so I just bought some fans for my case (be quiet silent wings 3 120mm) and my motherboard has only 2 Chassis Fan connectors.

Is there any way to connect more? 

Isn't there like something that connects more at a time...

 

Here's my motherboard: PRIME B450M-A | Motherboards | ASUS USA

 

 

Thanks for suggestions!

As far as I know there are two ways.

 

1:

You can get a fan hub/splitter ($5-$10 Amazon USA)

 

 

2:

You CAN take the wires out form the cable housing on one of the fans and push them into the other (I know that this is possible on a USB header, but IDK about on fan cables)

 

I would use was #1 as it is much easier, plus if you get more fans in the future, you can add them with no trouble.
