Hey guys, quick question. I just bought 5 case fans (There is a total of 5 Case openings for fans). However the issue is that there are both, Molex power adapters as well as the Fan connection (The white piece that you insert on the mobo). But I can only locate 2 total places to insert a fan, which leaves me with three fans non operational. Now I am new to system builds and this is my second one (First one I had help with). But shouldnt the power supply come with additional fan connectors? I was looking at newegg.com at the power supply that I ordered and I didnt see any additional fan connectors.

uhh dont the fan connectors have an in/out connector, they barely take any power at all, so you can just usea single molex connector

i have like a bar of 5 molex-through connectors hidden behind the hdd bays :D for fans and lights and the leds on my case
 
Ahhhh.. Ok, so you dont have to use the three prong adaptor, but instead I can use both the in and out and it will work fine than?
