Is there any power plugs on the Yikes 350 motherboard that can be used to power an CPU-fan?

I beleive theres a mini 12 volt jack on it, but most mac users just use the drive power when puting in extra devices (this has an advantage because when you computer goes to sleep the fan will spin down.

with something like this cable from Frozen Cpu

Edit: you might want to find one with a larger cable length
