Hi, /g/ I'm looking to get an EVO 212 but I also want to add an extra fan to it. How would I go about connecting both fans into my MB which only has one connector for the CPU fan?

don't bother
especially as its more trouble than its worth for you
you'll just end up taking up more space and getting more noise for placebo gains

you'll get an extra 1 degree cooler at most

this

you don't need push/pull on a relatively small heatsink like the 212

its only for those fuckhuge sinks like the noctuas that one fan cant push the air through it and even then its like 1-2 degrees cooler on benchmarks

I got an EVO. waste of time adding a second fan

I did 2 fan on 212, its useless.

THIS.
If you are using normal i7 on the highest model, it doesn't make sense to use 2 fans. You can only have 1-2 degree improvement but with much noisier environment.
Only people who uses the extreme processors and overclocked it crazily, may see 3-5C improvement.

Get the Hyper 212x Turbo which comes with two fans and all the splitters and cables you'll need.

It also has the new better fan mount and fans.

the two fans is less for making it colder, more for adding redundancy in case one fails, at least that's How i seen it. That said, you want to make the cpu even colder and drop temps in the pc, look into ducting the cooler to the exhaust, make sure all the cold air vents out of the computer that way.
