Power Supply monitor connector

Hi Again,
I'm so close to appling power I guess I'm paranoid. But heres another question. I'm installing a DFI MB and it has plugins on the mb for fan's. Well one fan is the cpu fan, there is a weird fan mounted to the motherboard thats using another connector. The power supply has a connector that looks like it should be plugged into the motherboard. And four case fan's.

I have a splitter but I'm still one socket short. What would be the best way to hook up all these fan's and whats the one mounted to the motherboard for?

Thanks
Cowboy
 
the fan on the mobo is for the chipset. i'd reccomend you plug all the case fans into the power supply, because otherwise you might overload the plugs on the mobo. the fans shold have come with a 3 to 4pin molex adapter. if not, either get one or make do.
hope this helps, cheers
