Hello,

I have an old server fan that I was going to use for the front of my computer but the only fan header on my mobo is being used by my case fan on the back.

Is it OK to plug a fan into the 4-pin mini-molex (berg) power connector coming from my PSU?

I know that I wouldn't get the info like RPM and the like but all I want is for it to run

Thanks.

Yea, the PSU can handle the power easily. Try it.
