Connect the fan cables to the fan connectors on the motherboard, ensuring that the
black wire of each cable matches the ground pin of the connector.
• The CPU_FAN connector supports a CPU fan of maximum 2A (24W) fan power.
• Only the 4-pin CPU_FAN supports the ASUS Fan Xpert2 feature.
DO NOT forget to connect the fan cables to the fan connectors. Insufficient air flow inside
the system may damage the motherboard components. These are not jumpers! DO NOT
