Connecting my Fan to my Power Supply trouble

This Guy With Questions · Aug 6, 2017

I have an Artic F12 Case Fan that I wish to install on my desktop case and hook up directly to my power source.

I am having trouble though finding a conversion cable that has a PCI or Sata (male) to 3 or 4 pin mini connector (male) that the fan uses.

Any suggestions or help finding a cable available to Canada would be of great help. Thank you

Here's one such cable,

Thank you but that cable goes from a regular 4 pin molex to a 3 pin for the fan. Unfortunately the power supply I have uses Sata and PCI express connections. I don't have any molex connectors.

(I think I see where I went wrong in my question, gonna edit out the mini molex part)

Here's one that uses SATA and not molex source with optional PWM wire from MoBo,

*Grabs wantingly at the screen* Yeah, that's want I want. I'll borrow the description to look around till I can find one available in Canada.

Thank you for the help

Right, forgot that you're from Canada. Here's one such adapter in Amazon.ca,

OMG! Thank you so much!

I don't know why, but I've been having the worst time trying to find this part >_<

You're welcome.

It's not hard to find it if you know the correct keywords to enter in Google or Amazon.ca. I used: SATA to 3-pin fan
