Zalman VF900 problem...

[SuperSonic X 316]

My brother bought a Zalman VF900 for his Sapphire Radeon X1950 Pro and they only way he can have the fan running is to remove the case fan and plug in the VF900. Is there any way to have both fans running when there is only one system fan connector on his Micro ATX motherboard?

he could get an adapter that will let you plug the fan into a molex.

Do you mean something like this?

Get a Y-splitter and connect both fans to it. Like this:

edit: oops: wrong splitter - fixed.

Thank you both so much for your help.

both would work, personally i have found the splitters tend to give less power to both fans so they dont spin up as fast but they do make the wiring easier so...pros and cons to both.
