ok, how bout if i asked, do i need an adapter with a passthrough thingy for the 4 pin molex side, or will it do with just 1?

Any of the three will work Abu.
It just depends on whether the fan is the last item on your power line or if you need the line to continue on to another component...

yes in the pic it looks like its a female...i dont see the point in it being a male anyway, so it has to be female...
