3/4) CPU_FAN/SYS_FAN1 (Fan Headers) All fan headers on this motherboard are 4-pin. 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 1 SYS_FAN1 Pin No. 1 2 3 4 Definition GND Voltage Speed Control Sense PWM Speed Control •• Be sure to connect fan cables to the fan headers to prevent your CPU and system from overheating.
