    4 pin to 3 pin

    Hi

    I wan't to buy a Akasa AK FC-03 Fan controller,Which can control 4 Fans

    I have 2 x Akasa 80mm fans + 1 x 120mm Akasa fan, so my problem is that my 120mm fan has a 4 pin through connector.
    So how can I connect this fan to the controller, can I change the 4 pin connector with a 3 pin connector and then connect the it to the controller?

    Thanks Inadvance
