Additional FANS into my RIG

GHOSTRIDER4083

Dear wise people of the internet,

 

I would love to put additional FANS into my rig however I have encountered a small problem. My motherboard Gigabyte H81M-S2H seems to have only 2 FAN slots on it. 1st one is used for the CPU Fan and the other one is used by INTAKE FAN on the front of the case. I would like to add 2 more fans to provide little bit more cool air for my GPU as under load without overclocking it sometimes goes up to almost 75 degrees Celsius and there is very got air going from the top of my case. My CPU runs perfectly as I don't run many CPU intensive tasks.

 

What is the best solution for me to be able to add those two more fans into the rig in order to be able to regulate it according to the GPU FAN speeds.

 

My Rig Specs are:

I have added my own 1TB HDD and my own GPU Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 DirectCU II OC 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card.

 

Thank you in advance for you help :)

To add extra fans either a fan controller or a molex/sata power to fan header adapter will be required. It depends on what you want to use them for.

I want to decrease overall temperature inside my rig by bringing more air in and make the air flow faster when GPU under load do more cold air can come in

But I would like for the fan speed to be controlable.. Either manually or in the relations to the GPU temperature/fan speed so that when only watching videos the fans dont have to run at all.
