First, you don't need any adapters, as the fans come with both 4-pin molex and small 3-pin fan plugs.alfonso wrote:and since there are two fans in the case, should I buy 2x Zalman Fan Mate and 2x adapter?
Secondly, I might just try the fan headers on the motherboard first. I think we had limited control on the Zotac fan headers, but they do get changed in the BIOS (and sometimes in minor hardware revisions) so it might be worth trying. One fanmate can probably handle both fans -- with a splitter cable. Or maybe you can find something less cumbersome -- the fanmate has a very long cable. There might be some other convenient small 2-fan header controller at your shop.
As for testing w/ the Nexus fan, it's routine for us to try and have only one variable in the HS reviews -- just the HS itself. So if the fan can be swapped for our reference, then we use it. Same approach with bigger HS that require a bigger fan. This way you can see the actual HS performance -- not affected by a slightly better/worse fan than the competitors. (The Nexus 92 is a very smooth quiet fan that doesn't blow much air.)
And it's nice that you feel grateful for the help, but unfortunately no deals with any EU online sellers. Just spread the word I guess... and you can always donate $ via paypal.
