V vopal Honorable Sep 1, 2013 4 0 10,510 Sep 1, 2013 #1 I recently aquired a custom built Geforce 8800 GT from a friend. Throwing it into a Dell XPS 430 tower. My only issue is finding where the little 3 pin fan wire plugs into. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Solution S S swifty_morgan Sep 1, 2013 you should be able to slide it on a fan header on the motherboard. otherwise you need a molex adapter to fit from power supply to that 3pin fan plug. got a picture of your board?
