Ok people, first of all; thank you for having a look at the thread :)

Now with the main things.
I got a PS3 Slim Jailbroken but it heats up from 50*C on start up to around 75*C after 10-20 minutes. I know that installing a fan on the outside will help and since I'm on a budget I'd like to have that option of a nice LED fan on the outside :D

Here's one that i liked
Color: Blue LED
Fan Size: 120 x 120 x 25mm
Connection: 4pin
Max. Air Flow: 21.71CFM
Noise: 20dB (A)
Bering Type: Hydraulic Bearing
Weight: 85.7g
Rate Voltage: 10.8-13.2VDC
Starting Voltage: 7VDC
Power Input: 1.92W
Fan Speed: 1800+/-10

I'd like to run the FAN at 12v, if i was to run it at 5v, i wouldnt have asked for help as i know how to do that. The thing is I'm a noob with NO knowledge on this. I'd like to run the external fan and the internal at the same time, will i need a splitter? like this http://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/tq/333375641.jpg
And i got Skype so... i can add you and have the conversation there :)
 
Solution
Same as the other fan. Disvconnect the other fan from the power source. Connect a splitter to the power source. Connect the fan leads to the splitter.

What if the splitter is 4pin and the fan is 3 pin? Will it work?
