The CPUFAN1 (processor fan), SFAN1/SFAN2 (system fans) and NBFAN1
(NorthBridge Chipset fan) support system cooling fan with +12V. It supports four/
three-pin head connector. When connecting the wire to the connectors, always take
note that the red wire is the positive and should be connected to the +12V, the black
wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If the mainboard has a System
Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially designed fan with
speed sensor to take advantage of the CPU fan control.
