You can actually just move the connectors on the 3 pin plug. On the back of the plug you can see which holes the wires are in. There is a small little flap that you can lift to take the connector out. You just need to know which wire to move. Look at the pins on the header and determine which one has the little mark next to it...that's the power pin and the other would be ground. On the plug, the colored wire is usually power and the black or white wire is ground.

Looks like a good case... should be plenty of airflow...
Crickets right... you can change them around... But you can also use a razor blade to remove the middle unused part of the plug... trim it down and then put the pins on seperately |

Get a Thermalright SLK-900A bare heatsink and buy a 80mm blue LED fan separately.
