Accelero Xtreme IV 280(x) Problem

[Titali]

Hi everybody,

 

I have a R9 280x rev 2.0 and like 2 weeks ago a fan started to vibrate and spining very very slow, so i decided to buy a new and better cooler, in this case the Accelero Xtreme IV 280(X), I investigated a lot and I was sure it would work. So today I decided to change the stock cooler for the Accelero. When removing the stock cooler the fan power adaptor was stuck in the plug, I finally pulled it out and the cable broke, well I didn't care because I had the new one, but when I checked closely to te fan adaptor of the Accelero i realised that it was a 4 pin adaptor. At the moment i don't have a GPU with cooler I don t know what to do, should i return the cooler and buy another one? Or buy a new GPU?Or buy an adaptor cable that I did not found anywhere!?¿?¿?¿ I prefer to stay with this GPU because I don't have much money for a brand new, but if there is no option I ll probably go for the Msi GTX 960 4GB

 

 

I hope someone can help me!! 

 

Pd: sorry for my english level, i m from spain :

a 4 to 3 pin fan converter might solve your problems if you cant plug it in

Yes but the problem it's that the 4 pin gpu fan adaptor it's not the standard fan plug

I contacted with Artic Cooling support and they answered me the following instructions PICTURE: https://gyazo.com/094640c290231802433dccd36fd5df99

Bye!!
