    So you just super glue the tip of each wire and it will be fine? No sparks or anything?

    nahh it won't but i cut mine really close to the connector so the wires aren't long anough to touch even if i forced them.

    btw hot glue would be better than superglue.

    I guess we&#39;ll see. So far it&#39;s not a good sign that he needs instructions for connecting a CPU fan.

    bigdawgfoxx, post some pictures of the connectors of the fan. That way we can be sure what you&#39;re talking about.

    I suspect that the right way would be to connect the molex connector directly to the power supply and then connect the smaller connector to the motherboard fan riser so that the RPM can be detected.

    Not a good sign that VB doesnt know what the fuck im talking about....haha

    We are cutting the molex connector off, so it wont be in the way. We are just making sure we can cut the wires and put hot glue on the end..

    You could try and call the UPS place and try to pick it up if it is not out for delivery.

    wait make sure of something.

    the motherboard connector should have 3 wires going into the connector.
    make sure of this BEFORE cutting.

    on my 120mm fan it has what i thought was a motherboard connecter and a molex connector but the motherboard one is actually just an RPM detector...it has only one wire (yellow) connecting to the motherboard, the black and red are just simply not there.

    edit: where did u buy the case from? maybe if u email the place saying it is taking way too long they might send u something free

    I didn&#39;t get anything from tigerdirect (cheap bastards ) but it&#39;s worth a shot anyway.

    ROSSCO saves the day...yep just a yellow connector..good thing we didnt cut it. Why dont they just make the one normal connector for the mobo like other fans are..

    Well, it shipped out on the 20th so it can be here in like 3 days...but its been in my town since last night so i was thinkin it should be here neway..lol
