I want to add two fans, one for inlet at front and another for outlet at back, currently there is a CPU fan plugged into MoBo and a fan in PSU. I am not able to find a single slot to plug extra fans but its urgent because of high temperatures inside cabinet.
I have two unused SATA plugs from PSU, can I use them by converting them into simple molex plugs and attach them with fans?
