To clarify, my motherboard has plenty of plug ins, but I don’t have enough plugs for the fans. Those lian LI fans are meant to be wireless hookups, the ones where to have a wire on one and the pin connectors on the rest just press against each other. So, I have exactly one wire for the reverse spin (the one front most fan) and only one for the set of three regulars. So, no matter what I won’t be able to hook up the set of three, some are going to be unpowered. The one that is in the case there has no power because the pins don’t like up from the SL to the CL, and as we see the one outside the case with the power hookup can’t fit in.
Otherwise, say I do just forget the reverse flow fan, I can’t use all my exhaust fans then. Two up top, powered, no way to power back exhaust. Do I just need to return these fans and buy different ones?












I don’t about doing any hole drilling or anything like that. Besides, I’ve already got a rock solid noctua air cooler
