I am building a computer using a corsair obsidian 250D case, a corsair cx 430M psu, and a Gigabyte GA-Z97N-Gaming motherboard. My problem is that, after wiring the front fan, I can't find a cable or place to hook up the side fan. Should I buy some kind of splitter? If so, what kind? Do I wire this fan to my motherboard, or the PSU? Thanks in advance!

You can get a molex to 4 pin fan connector that will work. The only bad part about those is the fan spins at full speed. Now you can also get a fan controller that will allow you to adjust the fan speeds and they can control 2-8ish fans depending on the amount of $$ you want to throw down.

Ok, thank you! Do you happen to have a link to a good fan controller for cheap? I'm not sure what to look for, but I only need it for just the side fan and perhaps one additional fan.
