I'm using an ASRock Z77 Extreme4 motherboard that has a 4pin fan header called CHA_FAN1. I'm trying to connect two Aerocool Shark 120mm LED fans to this header.
I bought this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812718001 to connect the fans to the one 4pin header on the mobo.
The Shark fans are only 3pin fans but come with an 4pin molex-3pin adapter. Can I connect the Gelid Solutions splitter to mobo, then connect the 4pin female end to the following?
Then connect that to the following molex-3pin adapter?
Then connect the adapter to the Shark fan? Will this power the fans and still allow for mobo controlled PWM functionality of the two Shark fans or am I going about this all wrong? I have a gut feeling that this is very jerry-rigged and ultimately wrong.
