You are mistaken.

Think of it like this...

A fan takes only a small current. In terms of a fast food beverage, it's a root beer.
The straw you get with your root beer is narrow, but that's not a problem as the root beer has a low viscosity. You don't have to strain to create enough suction to drink the root beer.

Your video card takes more current to run. In terms of a fast food beverage, it's a I.C. Caramel from Panera Bread.
The straw you get with that is HUGE as the shake has a high viscosity and sucking that through a regular straw will make you rupture something.

The wire size depends on how much juice the component is sucking. Ideally you want them matched, but having a bigger gauge wire than is required is not going to hurt. Having smaller wires trying to supply a lot of power will make them heat up like a light bulb.

There are molex to 3 pin fan connectors available. Such as: Link

No worries. We've all been there.
