Hey everyone,

I have searched in regards to my current issue without any luck finding a resolution.

I recently purchased a Fractal Design Define R4.

After installing my components, I needed to hookup the cabling that comes from the front of the tower.

There were a total of 5 cables.
1) One larger wide blue connector with cable. This I attached to a PCI USB 3.0 card that I have.
1) One Molex 4-pin connector, which I connected to my PSU
3) Black 4(or 3) pin connectors that I have no idea where they go.

The Microphone/LED/Power button I have setup properly to the motherboard, but I cannot figure out where the bottom 3 connect to. I for some reason can't get my USB 3.0/2.0 ports to work at the front also.

Those should be the fan headers for the built in fan controller behind the front panel.
 
Thanks KrylonArt,

So those fan headers, would they connect to my motherboard I'm guessing? or would it connect to some kind of fan adjustment device?

Since I have 3 lines, does that represent 3 fans at the front of my case?

Click to expand...

you plug fans into them. the molex you plugged in powers the fan controller
 
Hello, it's me again.

I've been a bit confused on how to hookup the front I/O USB 3.0 connector.

It's the blue, 20pin cable. Would that attach to my motherboard? I've never seen a connector like that on a motherboard.
