Fan controller considerations...

Thread Starter 
Hi, I am trying to decide on a fan controller, I have this case: Zalman Z11 Plus, and these fans:

Front 1 x 120mm/140mm - (3 pin)
Top 1 x 120mm/140mm - (3 pin)
Rear 1 x 120mm - (molex)
Side 2 x 80mm - (molex)

Top (unused) 1 x 120mm/140mm
Bottom (unused) 1 x 120mm/140mm

1 x CPU - (4-pin pwm)
1 x GPU - ?

I am guessing there are molex to 3-pin cables that I can get for the case fans?

Can I hook my graphics card up to a fan controller?

Are these good possible choices?
