Fan Power Connectors: P_FAN1/C_FAN1/S_FAN1

The C_FAN1 (processor fan), S_FAN1 (system fan) and P_FAN1

(power supply fan) support system cooling fan with +12V. They support

3-pin head connector. When connecting the wire to the connector, 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. As 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.

Note:

1. Always consult the vendor for proper CPU cooling fan.

2. CPUFAN supports the fan control function. You can install the PC Alert

utility that will automatically control the CPU Fan speed according to

the actual CPU temperature.
