Although, I'd rather get three 120's but that's just me.

3 x 120's good idea, don't have enough fan headers, is there some sort of 3/4 pin adapter?

I can't remember where I found it, but online I found a SATA (they have molex, too) power to 3 pin splitter with 4 fan 3pin male connectors. I'll look and try to link you.

With the Corsair Carbine Air 540 you can have 2 140's or 3 120's in the front.

So I chose 3, using AF120's PE atm. Although fan choice is up to you, I strongly recommend using 3 120's over 2 140's.

You can take a look how I laid it out here:

Or you can take the pins out of any 4 or 3 pin plug by pushing the tiny metal tab down that's located on top of each pin. I use sewing needles to do it. This way you can convert any 3 pin to a 4 pin without the PWM.
