My motherboard is the MSI X99S SLI Plus ATX LGA2011-3.
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-x99ssliplus
It has 2x CPUFANS (using one) and 3x SYSFANS that will all be taken up with case fans but i still have 2-3 more fans left that dont have power. How can i connect them to the power supply?
There are all 3pin fans.
Power supply: EVGA 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX.

What cable do i use to connect these 3pin fans?
Would appreciate any help, Thanks

Yes that is the correct cable and your PSU will have enough for the extra fans.

You would need something like a molex to 3 pin adapter, I have one that connects straight to the molex cable on the power supply and I can plug 4 extra fans in to it
 
It doesn't plug into the PSU directly. What you are looking at is for the cables that will plug into that PSU and give you SATA, MOlex and other power plugs but only as you need them.

What I linked will plug into the fan then into a molex connection from the PSU.

The PSU will come with all the cables that you need.
