CPU and Chassis Fan connectors

 

(3-pin CHA_FAN1, 4-pin CPU_FAN1)

 

The fan connectors support cooling fans of 350 mA~740 mA (8.88 W max.) or 
a total of 1 A~2.22 A (26.64 W max.) at +12V. Connect the fan cables to the 
fan connectors on the motherboard, making sure that the black wire of each 
cable matches the ground pin of the connector. 

 

 

Do not forget to connect the fan cables to the fan connectors. Insufficient air 
flow inside the system may damage the motherboard components. These are 
not jumpers! Do not place jumper caps on the fan connectors!
