Sorry the ignorance.
But I dont understand how cooler fan compatibility works.
I want to buy this case: Gamer Corsair Carbide Series Spec Delta RGB Mid-Tower
For the mobo in the title; The case comes with 4 fans.
I dont give a damn about the rgb lights. I just want to know if I can make the 4 fans spin with that mobo.
Reading the mobo specs, it says it only have 2 system fan heads...Im not sure what that means. It only supports 2 fans besides the cpu one?
Plus, the mobo supposedly support "RGB fusion", I dont get what that is, but I find weird that a mobo that only support 2 fans would even bother with fancy RGB stuff..
Am I getting this right?

Further questions would be, my (future) PSU have 2 molex connectors, would I be able to turn on the other 2 fans? How do I know what are the connectors of the included fan on the case...The manufactor site dont say anything about it!
Godam, is this supposed to be complicated like that?
How stupid would you rate me as?
 
You can use fan splitters if you want to connect to motherboard, or you can use molex to 3 pin (4 pin may be needed, so check your fan connectors) adapters and connect fans to power supply.
 
Hey.
Would this cable do the trick: (sorry if I cant post links)

Do I need to worry about the mobo not having enough power to split?
 
Fans don't draw much power, it's definitely not a problem
