Hi, I have a question. I already bought a case model Corsair 760T and I'm planning to get gabtye 990fxa ud3 mobo. I noticed that it only has 2 system fans (1 & 2 and pwr fan). How can I use the 2 front fans and the rear one if it only has 2 system fan? Do I sue the pwr fan? is there a specific connected I need to utilize all fans???

You can utilise a fan splitter. this is a cable which allows you to connect 2 case fans to one sys_fan header on your motherboard. That can accommodate two fans per sys_fan header. The rest of the fans can be connected to the power supply via a fan-molex adapter. Note that the fans connected to motherboard, you can control the speed of them provided your motherboard sys_fan has 4 pins. The fans connected to the PSU will run at 100% all the time
