4.4 Connectors This section describes and illustrates the connectors on the motherboard. 1. CPU fan connector (4-pin CPU_FAN) The fan connector supports the proprietary CPU fan. Connect the fan cable to the fan connector on the motherboard, ensuring that the black wire of each cable matches the ground pin of the connector. CPU_FAN CPU FAN PWM CPU FAN IN CPU FAN PWR GND P5Q18L P5Q18L CPU fan connector Do not forget to connect the fan cable to the fan connector. Insufficient air flow within the system may damage the motherboard components. These are not jumpers! DO NOT place jumper caps on the fan connectors! 2. ATX power connectors (24-pin EATXPWR, 4-pin ATX12V) These connectors are for the 24-pin and 4-pin power plugs from the power supply unit. The plugs from the power supply unit are designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the proper orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit. Do not forget to connect the 4-pin ATX12V power plug to the ATX12V connector on the motherboard. Otherwise, the system will not boot up.
