SATA3 0/1/2/3 SATA 6Gb/s Connectors, 4 CPU_FAN/SYS_FAN Fan Headers, When connecting a fan cable

Page 13 highlights

3/4) CPU_FAN/SYS_FAN (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 speed control function requires the use of a fan with fan speed control design. For optimum heat dissipation, it is recommended that a system fan be installed inside the chassis.
