My case (Thermaltake Xaser II A5000A) comes with 1 side fan, 1 front fan and 2 rear fans.

However, my motherboard (MSI P6N SLI-FI) only comes with 3 connectors for case fans.

Is there any way to get all 4 fans running?
 
Assuming all fans are 3pin, buy a 3pin to 4pin adaptor and connect the last fan directly to your power supply.
 
I had the same problem with my case, it had 4 case fans and my motherboard only had plugs for three. Those 3-4 pin converters work great, just remember that you will not be able to use programs like speed fan to vary their speeds since they will not be attached to the motherboard.
 
Thanks. Looking to see if I can find 'em cheaper, but I don't think that's gonna happen :)
