Hi! I have bough a Akassa fan controller which can control upto 4 fans,

The Akasa fans always use the 3 pin connector to connect up and the problem I have is I have 2 fans which just have a 4 pin moxel connecter at the end so does anyone know where I can get a 3 to 4 pin extention cavle to connect these up?
 
Google for 4-pin to 3-pin adaptersm, but you won't want to buy the adapters online unless you're buying something else to offset shipping costs.

(Don't listen to thejawn.)

This is working under the assumption that 80's are what the OP needs.

OP another option is to solder some new ends on the fans, (depending on your soldering skills and what you've got layen around.) Otherwise I would agree with scoob, SVG is a great place for parts like these, (I recently ordered a pile of stuff including these myself from them).

Sure, if the OP's already using cheap (and 80mm) fans that are supposedly quiet but are likely just quieter than the other cheap fans the reviewers were used to. Would I buy a $2 fan? No. The OP asked about where he/she can buy adapters/extension cables so he can use the fans he/she already has.
 
I have actually got hold of two 3 to 4 pin connectos which I should receive in the morning, They cost me about £8 with shipping so I gues it'sw not all that bad.
