Default Chassis Fans

OK I have decided to get some chassis fans for my case as there are none at
the mo' and temps of 60C are not going down well with me...

OK now I have one 4 pin PS plug thingy left (from the PSU) ...so if I got
two or 3 fans (one intake at the front and 2 outtakes at the back) would it
be possible to daisy-chain then all? ie will each fan have both male and
female 4-pin ps plugs?

Will 3 fans have a great deal of effect on my PSU power?....I know that I
shouldn't drain power from my mobo nor should I really daisy chain them off
the ps from my HD...

Any help would be welcomed....

Cheers

Craig....

Don't worry....I went ahead and bought 3 fans....I took them to the counter
which invited a "''ave an over'eatin' problem do ya'?" responce.....but I am
much happier with the results...

MB has dropped from 50C to 28C and CPU idles around 44C which is much better
than the previous 60C!

Should have read this before my other reply. I could have saved some
typing. Sounds good now.
