Parts question: Case fan 3 pin adapter for 2 pin PS header
Posted: Mon Feb 13, 2012 11:45 am
Hello,
I have various parts catalogs from Jameco and such. But I don't know how to look up a part or prepared jumper described below.
The goal is to use a quiet Scythe fan on a power supply which has one of those tiny 2 pin plugs and headers.
Does such a thing exist? I figured I'd look for a reusable product before cutting wires and testing leads to see if this would work.
The jumper would have the two pin board connection one end and a 3 pin male connector on the other. The Scythe would just be bolted onto the cutout for a 120 in fan that came with the PS. That one is high speed and makes the secondary hum which all high speed fans have.
If there's a separate 'parts geek' place a link would be appreciated.
