English
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_FAN (Fan Headers)
The motherboard has a 4-pin CPU fan header (CPU_FAN) and a 3-pin system fan header
(SYS_FAN). Each fan header supplies a +12V power voltage and possesses a foolproof insertion
design. When connecting a fan cable, be sure to connect it in the correct orientation. Most fans are
designed with color-coded power connector wires. A red power connector wire indicates a
positive connection and requires a +12V voltage. The black connector wire is the ground wire. The
motherboard supports CPU/system fan speed control, which requires the use of a CPU/system
fan with fan speed control design. For optimum heat dissipation, it is recommended that a system
fan be installed inside the chassis.
