Case fans:

I placed 2 of those case fans in front of the case and the wires won't reach motherboard they are 2-3 inches short I think, and I think I am lacking of one fan connection port on the motherboard meaning 1 case fan won't be connected to the motherboard what can I do?

im not never used one but from i see and read. u connect 2 fans in one connector than connect to motherboard seems straight forward. just suggesting and researching what you posted.
