Hi I have a computer fan on my Nvidia GTX970 Graphics Card that has become noisey (I have already oiled it previously but I want a spare).

I have brought a Gigabyte fan for it which is 3 pin (my graphics card has 3 x Fans on it, 1 Fan is 3 pin and the other 2 Fans have 2 pins), but unfortunately the one i have purchased has a male connector on it, instead of a female which is required (see picture attached of the one i brought). Can i use 2pcs 4-Pin MOLEX to 3-Pin fan Power Cable Adapter Connector 12v*2 / 5v*2 10cm as an adaptor to use my 3 pin Fan with male connection (see attached picture of the one from Ebay that i may get). This would connect to my Power Supply.

Can anyone confirm if this would be suitable PLEASE as it says 2 of the adaptors are 5v and 2 are 12v. If this is not suitable can anyone let me know a solution please?

I realise i can get the Fans with the 3 pin female connection but they all seem to be from China and due to the Coronavirus they are not obtainable at the moment.

Thank you very much in advance for any help you can give meIf you have room for it and desperation for a cooling fan for video card, I have actually placed a 80MM muffin fan on flat of heatsink and then used rubber bands to hold it tight to the video card and plug that into a 12volt power connector and it worked in keeping the video card cool. You will want the airflow to blow into the heatsink vs away for BEST cooling which it is as if it shouldnt matter of airflow but it worked better for some reason with the arrow of airflow pointed towards heatsink vs away.HI
The adapter picture you have posted has different sized connections than the fan. Normally when i can't get exactly the same part I have cut the socket off the faulty fan say with about 3/4 of an inch of wire then cut the new fans wires and solder the correct connections. Remembering to use some HEAT shrink for installation, put this on before joining the wires. If you only have 2 wires then these will go to the red and black on the fan. The green wire is a sensor output . A local electronics shop should do this for you.
