    Powers Supply computer case question about Molex Jumper cables
    « on: February 13, 2015, 06:36:50 PM »
    I have a ATX case with 2 Molex jumpers cable's and the power supply has the connectors for it. I am trying to find a new power supply for the case, but I am noticing new powers supply's do not have the Molex jumper cables? Are there case's  available with these connectors or can I use an adapter of sort and connect to a regular Molex or something else??

    That site indicates the connector is used for a fan.
    Fan control is what the motherboard does.  So those connectors should be part of the motherboard, not the power supply.

      right good point, except I don't think mother boards have a port for (Male) 3 pin Molex pins. You gave me an idea to see if I can get a cable converter that goes from 3 pin (female) Molex to 4 pin (female) Molex. 

      Which I think I found it..

      That will work. It looks like it does 12 volt.
