This board has the following fan headers CPU_FAN CPU_OPT AIO_PUMP CHA_FAN1 CHA_FAN2 W_PUMP+ All are 4 pin headers and from what I can tell they're all rated for 1A except the W_PUMP+ which is rated for 3A. Can I just plug the CPU fan into the CPU_FAN header and then plug a regular chassis fan into the other 5? The case I will be using has 5 fans and it'd be tidier than using splitters. Cheers GK
You'll be fine, they are just labelled so you have a way of identifying what fan is plugged where when you're adjusting fan curves/profiles... Providing you actually remember after you've finished building the thing and put the side panels back on
haha - I have the same problem with my Z87 sabertooth. I got round it by setting all to minimum except 1, peering through the side panel and then ramping one up to max to see which started spinning faster! Now that I've set my fan profiles in the Asus software I can't for the life of me remember which is which again though... Cheers for the help both
