NZXT Tempest Evo

I read a review on my mobo and it seems that there is only 1 fan connection on it. Issit possible for me to connect the other 5 fans to my PSU? Also, I am planning to get a cooler master V6. Will it fit into my chassis? Or should I get a CM hyper 212 instead?

Thanks in advance.
 
You are correct there is only 1 fan header. By the sounds of things, you haven't bought the parts yet, if that is the case, I would strongly suggest changing your board, Biostar are an awful brand, very low quality, I would stick with Asus, Gigabyte, MSI or ASRock.

For the other questions, yes, it is possible to add another 5 fans to the PSU, you will need a molex to 3 pin fan adapter, like this:

And a CM V6 should fit just fine :)
 
yup you are right, I still havent bought them yet. I chose that mobo because plp recommended it to me, saying it OCs lik hell. If nt, how bout msi 890fxa-gd70? If I were to get the msi mobo, will I still need the mloex?
 
The fans on the Tempest already have 4 pin molex connectors. So you wont need adapters to plug them to the power supply.

I'd stay with Gigabyte or Asus, personally...MSI and especially Biostar just don't match their quality standards.

MSI boards are great quality with their AM3/156/1366 boards, they have just not put the effort in and been unlucky with past boards and components, the quality of their other parts, graphics cards for instance, are excellent as well
