3/4) CPU_FAN/SYS_FAN (Fan Headers)
The motherboard has a 4-pin CPU fan header (CPU_FAN) and a 4-pin system fan header (SYS_FAN).
Most fan headers possess a foolproof insertion design. When connecting a fan cable, be sure to con-
nect 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.
• Be sure to connect fan cables to the fan headers to prevent your CPU and system from overheating. Over-
heating may result in damage to the CPU or the system may hang.
