Also, I'm going to put it in another post I guess, but the other fan is a delta SP09 or something like that. It's this heavy 230cfm fan, and the guy custom wired it to a PCIE peripheral connector.

The red on the fan is going to the yellow on the wires, and the black is going to the black... But for some reason, it's not working... When I hit the PSU switch, the wire actually "jumps", (literally moves) then the PSU goes off. Fan does nothing... The red on the fan is wired to all 3 of the yellows and taped off, and the black on the fan is wired to all 3 of the black on the wires, and the other two wires (blue and brown) are just off separately, not attached to anything...

Hey guys... I just got my hands on another SP20E for a decent price... Problem is, the guy modded it with a custom fan, which doesn't seem to be hooked up properly, or something... Maybe that'll be a different thread, because that's pissing me off in and of itself, and if I can get that working, at least I'll have a fan to use immediately...

Anyway, I guess it's the typical connector used for these units. The fan is a standard 4-pin, and it goes to this mini 4-pin on the SP20's board... Problem is, the guy inclided the stock fan, and not the adapter, so now I can't run the thing anyway. Ideally, I would like to get both fans running, but the simplest thing right now would be to get this adapter. I'll try to fix the other fan as well, but here's the adapter from the stock fan, to the board. What adapter would I need?
