Fan 4-pin connector

My laptop's power supply to the fan gave up and I want to reroute it. My plan is to use power from the USB. And I want to make it clean, with connectors instead of soldering (where applicable).

The fan uses a 4-pin connection to regulate the RPM. I have purchased a small controller. However I did not realize there was a difference in size. The fan uses a 6mm 4-pin and the controller a 10mm 4-pin.

I want to purchase the respective male and female headers. I would like to know what they are called so I know what to look for.

Set up
