I think I would rather use the Kraken G12 fan connected to the 2080 rather than on the MB, at least that way I'd keep the in built fan curves wouldn't I?
 
So I want to buy a 4 Pin PWM cable adapter to connect to the card.  What is the type of the connector on my card so I know what adapter to buy.  Thanks!

The top photo here is of an EVGA RTX 2080 Super Black PCB..The fans connect to an all-in-one header all the way on the right edge.

I believe your only viable option is to connect the Kraken's 3-wire fan connector to the mobo, unless you wanna start cutting and splicing wires together..Or roll with a fan controller that fits in a drive bay..I don't know of an adapter that will work for what you wanna do.

Thanks for photo!
 
See I am thinking of something like this.  An adapter that would let you connect a regular fan to the video card.   Does something like this exist, except in this case fits that evga connector on the card?

Something like that would be ideal, but I don't think anything like that exists to fit in the card's header..I searched around a bit and couldn't find anything.

If you buy one & it does work on your card - or Not ... please Post an update

Those cables are not going to work with the connector on the card.

bummer
 
Found this:  https://www.arctic.ac/us_en/nv-14-pin-adapter.html
 



Neither will that one. The card uses a 12-pin connector.

Maybe someone else can find  a 12-pin adapter ?

Could 2 pins be chopped from the side? I honestly know nothing about wiring and am just throwing it out there lol

I was under the impression that all/most of the RTX cards used the 14-pin connector.


Looks like you're right. The picture I was looking at made it look like it was only 12.

Good find, Cool 
 
That seems to be the ticket since the Black doesn't have any RGB LED or Logo lights that would also go to that 14-pin all-in-one header.
 
Actually, now that I think about it, it could be used with a card that does have RGB LED or Logo lights if one would remove the RGB/Logo light terminals from the original connector and put them 1:1 in that adapter.
