[QUOTE="pbb, post: 194835, member: 26308"] Thanks a million John! After long search I've found a few suppliers of 3-pin splitters (on those, the second connector has indeed only 2 wires). And I found a fourth possibility, an Antec powersupply with temperature-controlled fan connector... As for the USB cables, it would have been great if I could find external-to-internal USB converters, because I don't think I'll have any use for the external USB ports on the back of my case... I'm not really handy soldering things, maybe I can find someone to build some for me. Thanks for all the help, I will now continue connecting up my case! Another question, about the 4 USB connectors for the front panel module. I now notice that two of them read VCC/USB1-/USB1+/GND, and two have VCC/USB2-/USB2+/GND (they are four 4-pin connectors). Does this USB1/USB2 indication mean I can put two connectors together on one 9-pin USB header on the motherboard? And if so, would I put the two USB1's together, or rather a USB1 and a USB2? There is a schematic picture of the connections from the front panel module visible here: [url]http://www.silverstonetek.com/downloads/pindefine.jpg[/url] [/QUOTE]
