Hi, i have an msi sli krait edition and a zalman z9u3 and. I can't connect the case fan to the motherboard because the plugs won't fit anywhere. The is 4 pins where it is written sysfan but only 3 on the recepters.

The CPU fan goes to a header labelled CPU_FAN or similar. You can connect 4 pin fans to 3 pin ports, the connector will guide you in to the correct pins. You can also connect 3 pin fans to 4 pin ports.
