what’s up with these motherboards that only have 1 or 2 fan power plugs? is there any way around this lack of plugs problem (besides buying a more expensive MB)?

Yeah you can purchase fans that use a 4-pin molex connector and connect it to your power supply.

they also sell adapters that will convert the small 3 pin to a 4 pin molex if this helps any.

as cube_ said you can connect your fans to the power supply, I always do that .

You can also get splitters for these connectors to hook up more fans. look at these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-Gelid-Solutions-1-to-4-PWM-PC-Case-Fan-Splitter-Cable-/190924321041?pt=UK_Computing_Case_Fans&hash=item2c73f9f111

Don’t worry about the 4pin connector they will both work with 3pin connectors.
