You can use this if you still want add a second one: http://www.coolermaster-usa.com/product.php?product_id=2916&product_name=R4-C2R-20AC-GP Check this: http://www.overclocking-tv.com/content/reviews/13393/cooler-master-cpu-cooler-fight-hyper-tx3-evo-vs-212-evo/ Upvote 0 Downvote

A PWM fan comes with 4-pin connections, all modern motherboards comes with those types of connections for use that fans. You only need check your motherboard and find out the correct connector. Do not use the molex, in that way your fan will run at max speed 7x24. Upvote 0 Downvote
