Need Help Installing Fans


Google the make/model of the case... just the case, not the whole computer.
Then pick the manufacturer's site from the results. On that site they'll have a User manual for the case.
It's a Lian Li 011 DXL ROG. What am I looking for in it? I mean I already have the manual.

The fan controller goes on the backside of the case (opposite the glass front) on mine.

So I need to run the cables to the controller that I put in the back?

Yeah, that's Greek to me. This is why I paid for a build.

OK . . . You payed for a build and they did not complete the build.

I'm confused, as the fan headers are on the motherboard, not the case.

Oh. I was thinking we had a similar system. Read the manual, you will get it. It took me all day but I figured it out. This is my first gaming case with lights and fans . . .

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 13 years?
Here's the OPs case manual... click the download arrow (top right)...

It does not come with a fan header in this model apparently. (nothing in the manual)

This YouTube video might help . . .
It does look a little overwhelming at first.
The way I look at it is . . . if you buy a gaming system like this then just treat the setup as a game and know you will eventually win the game

That Lian Li case comes with no fans.

I think that you've been given a Thermaltake package. 3 fans plus a controller. There's a manual for download, although it's not the clearest.

It appears to be intended for use on a 360 mm radiator, but that's not a problem. There are two types of screws that you pictured: long ones for mounting the fan to a radiator, four short ones for mounting a fan to a case. They didn't give you 3 sets of each?

The fans plug into the controller. The controller is commanded off a USB connection from the motherboard. (I imagine that you have a free 9 pin USB header.) It gets its power from a Molex connector. That's the old 4 pin type, as used to power PATA (aka IDE) drives. Does your PSU have such a power cable? If not, you'd need a cheap SATA to Molex adapter.

I'm a little surprised that the fan controller has no connection to a motherboard fan header, but that's OK.

The page doesn't give a link for the software needed to control the fans. The manual says "TT RGB Plus", which is here.

The fans blow away from the side with the TT logo. (The TT log would be mounted down, assuming that you want those fans to blow into the case.)

I hope that all makes sense to you.

Going by the pics you posted, what you have appears to be the Riing Plus Premium Edition 3 Fan Pack, not the Pure Plus Premium Edition 3 Fan Pack.

Well, I’ve been to hardware store and Staples, no one carries screws that small. Computer rep called said they’re in the mail.

These are fan mounting screws:

From your pictures, you already have at least 4 (enough to mount 1 fan).

They self-tap into the plastic body of the fan.

You don't have 12?

By the way, just to be sure-

You know that the fans in the case bottom mount to a removable tray?

My apologies if this is all clear to you, and we're just not speaking the same language. I've been messing around with this hardware for more than 25 years, and I don't recall the early parts of my learning process.

Yep, I've never built a computer before. I was looking to do just that, mount one fan, but there is no way to attach it! No tray like your saying. Can't get to the screws anywhere to tighten it. So I need to ask about a try to mount them?

I can say that I removed the top magnetic dust strip........... box runs 8 degrees cooler! It's now idling at 28C! I'm not so concerned about the fans now, so I don't have to sweat it so much until I can get them attached.
