Not enough fan connectors

[cdninva]

Hey folks,
1st-time builder: My Antec case came with two 120mm fans, top and rear, each with a 3-speed manual control. I'd bought two more 120mm Evercools for the front, no manual control, since I have 4 drives and maybe more in the future. I've found my Asus P8P67 board only has two chassis fan connections monitored and controlled by its Q Fan-Xpert.

If you didn't spend the extra $20-odd to get a fan controller, which two fans of the four would you hook up to the board, or is it a crap shoot? I may well try to overclock in the future.

Any suggestions appreciated - Chris in Virginia

I'd send the Evercools back and replace them with 2 fans that have molex plugs on them, then you just power them straight from the psu molex line.

Those with high rpm and no control to the mobo. Or this

but more wires into the case.

The Evercools came with these guismos, and I have enough molex connections to power all four from the PSU. I guess yours is a good compromise - control the front fans with no control through FanExpert, open the case and try to set the rear and top accordingly.' Thanks, MoSox!
