How to connect three 3 pin molex fans?

[Greenslade]

I have just bought these

upHere 120mm 3PIN Dual halo white LED PC Case Fan,High performance Silent Fan for PC cooling,DP12BE3-3 I did order blue ones but they sent my white ones? . My free trial had ended so can,t send them back.How to I connect them? 3-pin or Molex? And what are the black pads for? Do I need a fan hub? I ordered lie ones.​

easiest way if you are going to run them at max RPM is to daisy chain the molex connectors otherwise if you want to control RPM they need to be connected to your mobo directly or through a splitter or get a fan hub.

the pads are supposed to help prevent vibration noise although you can debate how well they work

Thanks for that dirtyferret I was thinking about getting a hub do i need to get the Game max hub to get the the colours?
I see you don,t get the when using Molex connecter

I see i don,t get the RGB addressable effects ,am i tight?

if I'm looking at the right fans, they are just LED fans and not RGB

if they are RGB fans you would need to connect the RGB connectors but all i see from your image is the 3-pin power and molex

That is correct ,i wish they had sent me the Blue ones i orded But you only get the one couler as it it is not RGB.So Molex is the only option to connect them.It is not worth getting a hub then.I might just put two in the case.And put the third one in another one.Where would i put thouse strips i showed you on the photo?

it's not the only option, in fact if it was my PC i would use the 3-pin to the mobo or splitter for two of the fans if needed. Molex is an an easy option if you don't mind full RPM and have the molex connector from your PSU all set to go and you simply daisy chain the 3 fans.

Where would i put thouse strips i showed you on the photo?

it looks as if those strips come off like stickers and go on the screw stands but without having fans and pads in hand and going by a pic it's hard to tell

My picture is ok. The youtube video was shown as a example.They don,t come with any instructions, or any details of the fans.

Have you plugged any of them in yet? So they are white LED? If you haven't powered them up yet, the white blade may glow blue.

No, I have,t, but here is a video of the white ones the guy has here. the ones I was sent. After watching the second video to put three more fans in the case I might just put two of them in there.

Even just two fans in his case one at the front and one in the back i will put two in the back and take out the back fan in the case.

Is this in the right postion ,the screws were hard to get in.I will just put one in the bottom and leave the front one.
