my motherboard is gigabyte z77x ud3h and case is antec 300. im trying to plugin top fan and rear fan of the case but they have 3 pin connectors. on the other hand motherboard has 4 pins. Still, i can plug them in. would it be ok?
 
Solution
It should be fine.

My gigabyte 990FX-UD3 automatically recognized that I had a 3-pin fan plugged into the 4-pin CPU header and switched to voltage adjustment.

Just line up the "slot" when you plug the fan in.
