3/4/5) CPU_FAN / SYS_FAN1 / SYS_FAN2 / PWR_FAN (Fan Headers) The motherboard has a 4-pin CPU fan header (CPU_FAN), a 4-pin (SYS_FAN1) and two 3-pin (SYS_FAN2) system fan headers, and a 3-pin power fan header (PWR_FAN). Most fan headers possess a foolproof insertion design. When connecting a fan cable, be sure to connect it in the correct orientation (the black connector wire is the ground wire). The motherboard supports CPU fan speed control, which requires the use of a CPU fan with fan speed control design. For optimum heat dissipation, it is recommended that a system fan be installed inside the chassis. 1 CPU_FAN CPU_FAN: Pin No. 1 2 3 4 Definition GND +12V / Speed Control Sense Speed Control 1 SYS_FAN1 SYS_FAN1: Pin No. 1 2 3 4 Definition GND +12V / Speed Control Sense Reserve 1 SYS_FAN2 1 PWR_FAN SYS_FAN2/PWR_FAN: Pin No. Definition 1 GND 2 +12V 3 Sense • Be sure to connect fan cables to the fan headers to prevent your CPU and system from overheating.

Before connecting a floppy disk drive, be sure to locate pin 1 of the connector and the floppy disk drive cable. The pin 1 of the cable is typically designated by a stripe of different color. 33 1 34 2 GA-MA790X-UD3P Motherboard - 24 -
