how to connect a single wire connector of thermaltake fan in area 51 R2
this fan has a 3 pin connector but it is not a fan connector, it has a single wire only. it gets its power via molex.
what is this 3 pin for? I guess rgb but have never seen it before. I accidentally plug it in a 4 pin header.

Hey Red, that solo yellow wire is the fan tach / rpm signal --> if you plug it into any motherboard 3/4pin fan header it'll register as a working fan & report its speed as normal (or should, supposed to)
