Thanks for reply, I got the wrong ones then, Sorry, I sould have paid more attention to detail, If I got the 3pin, And effectivly splice them together on the connector for the PCB, It should all work?

It's going back in a gameing rig so I don't really want fans stuck at 100% Would rather be linked to a adaptor ar replacements.

Yes.  I've repaired a number of the gigabyte gpus in this way.  One fan will not have the tach wire connected. Just use the 3 wire fans for both and snip the yellow on one.

I have two of those, But I have no idea how to wire up, I cant find an adaptor either, Can someone point me to how or where?



Sorry for bad macro, My camera is crap. I need to turn the two on the right into the connector on the left.

Also, I am using a 120mmfan ATM LOL.



#1 = use the bbcode [img width=70] to reduce the size of the pic.

#2 = looks like you have the 4 wire version. The one I linked to is the 3 wire version. Red/Black for power and Yellow for tach.  The 4-wire also includes PWM control on the blue wire.

4wire:     3wire:

blk     ->     blk
yellow ->    red
green  ->    yellow
blue    ->    N/C

The fan will run 100% all the time like this, since you now do not have PWM control.

I need the twin fans only, I cant buy two fans as they are connected and go in to one mini 4-pin fan connector, I cannot find this anywhere.
Please list postage to U.K.  i have BTC and varified Paypal.





get 2 of these:

I've replaced many gigabyte fans. http://www.ebay.com/itm/271169460280?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

You'll need to remake the one cable.  The RPM is read on only one of the fans.

Not affiliated with that ebay seller, just ordered many fans from him and been very happy with his fast shipping.

can vouch for crazyconn as well..  placed several orders & got them all within 3 business days

can't stand those 5870 gigabyte cards.   i strapped a 120mm fan on mine..  i don't think it's worth the cost to replace those fans, to be honest
