Problems with 460x case.

[Static89]

So I took the plunge to rgb. Finally I can truly feel part of the pc master race, be the envy of my peers and pawn n00bs in epic style! I got the corsair 460x, ripped my system out of the old dark dingy second hand case of the past and looked ahead excitingly to a rainbow future. However, I soon discovered that each of the three sp120 fans need their power from connectors on the motherboard?! My b350m only has, one. Kill me. 

Upon this discovery, I was mortified. How did I not know this before? Google has no answers for me, so I turn to the ltt forum community, I finally followed linus' orders and totally joined. 

Plz help.

Welcome to the forum! 

 

Dont Fret! you can use a simple three way fan splitter to connect all 3 fans to one motherboard header! Something like this

As a side note, your Motherboard fan headers usually provide 1 amp of power. The Sp120's draw about .3Amps of power, so three is the maximum number of SP120 fans you should put on a single motherboard header (unless you can find in the manual that it's a higher Amp header. Usually only found on higher end motherboards)
