Hello everyone!
This is baffling me as to why this is happening, but heres my problem.
I recently got a second Megaflow 200mm fan for my HAF 922 case to use as a side intake. Now I put everything together, and everything works except for the fan. I was completely sure I put everything together correctly, but I decided to investigate as to why this was happening. So I disconnected everything, and tried using the fan with nothing connected, and my PC torn apart, and it works! So, joyfully, I put my PC back together, and turn it on again after connecting all the parts for my PC, and it doesn't work again. Can anyone please help me here since I have no idea what's going on or what to do. A friend said that it could be my PSU, so I don't know if thats the reason. Here are the specs of my PC anyways.
i5-4670k
HD 7950 3GB OC w/ Boost
8Gb G.Skill RipJaws X
240GB SanDisk SSD
1TB W.D HDD
MSI Z87-G43
Hyper 212 EVO
CX600
Can anyone please help me? I am connecting the fan using a molex since I ran out of fan connectors on my motherboard. Like I said, it works when everything is disconnected from the back of my PC only. Am I using too much power? Do I need another PSU? I was told that 600W would be enough to add an extra fan to my build.
Any info would be great, this is really frustrating me... Thanks!
