http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157528 -- My mother board

 

I have the HAF 922, and I just want to know which fans should I use for the best air flow? Right now I only have my CPU fan, the top fan on the case, and the fan in the front. My motherboard has extra pins for case fans, but the pins for the case doesn't fit.... Is there a way to get an adapter for them? The only fan I don't have plugged in is the back fan. 

 

Also do you guys have any tips for me for good air flow for my case? Or stuff I should do.

How do the pins not fit? The 2, 3, and 4pin connectors are backwards compatible.  

Can you list your specs?

200mm in, 200mm out should be enough for you. No need to add rear fan. I'd say put extra 200mm to side intake if you feel like components are getting how after long time stressing. As for your mobo, it has 2x4pin connectors and 1x3pin connector. If you like, you can fit 6 fans by using splitters to those connectors. Or you can use splitters with 2 CPU fan connectors.

Do you know if newegg has these splitters?
