Ugh....Can someone tell me what this is and where to put it?

my 650w corsair psu didn't come with any real infoanyway, at the end of the string of 4 pin molex's theres a 4 pin connector that says TUV on it. it looks a lot like the cpu fan connectorand what the hell is the pwr_fan connector? it only has 3 pins on it....but it seems like i could make my 4 hole'd ''tuv'' thing fit in it.is that what controls the fan for psu? and is it ok to plug in my 4 hole thing into that 3 prong thing Ugh....Can someone tell me what this is and where to put it?
ok, i think that thing i described is for any floppy drives. but still....isn't there a way to connect my psu to the mobo so it controls the fan speed?Ugh....Can someone tell me what this is and where to put it?
If the 4 pin connector you are referring to is small and flat, then it is for the floppy drive.
You will need to connect your fans to your motherboard, then Fan Xpert to control fans. If, I remember right your motherboard is a P5Q Pro??

yea, but i have no connectors that can connect to my mobo (other then my cpu fan). i found out though that my fans only have one speed anyway, so they just connect to the psu alone (there aren't even any other wires)

One of the down sides of this case is the fact that the fans don't provide a speed controller and since they don't use a small 3-pin power connector, you can't monitor their speed thru your computer as well. On Figure 8 you can see the rear 120-mm fan.You could just leave it be, which would be fine. But, if it were me, I buy new fans. Good Luck !
