Be sure to connect fan cables to the fan headers to prevent your CPU and system from
overheating. Overheating may result in damage to the CPU or the system may hang.
•
These fan headers are not configuration jumper blocks. Do not place a jumper cap on the headers.
3/4) CPU_FAN/SYS_FAN1/2 (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.

5) LED_C (RGB LED Strip Header)
The header can be used to connect a standard 5050 RGB LED strip (12V/G/R/B), with maximum power
rating of 2A (12V) and maximum length of 2m.
Connect your RGB LED strip to the header. The power pin (marked with a triangle on the plug) of the
LED strip must be connected to Pin 1 (12V) of this header. Incorrect connection may lead to the damage
of the LED strip.
