Fan Power Connectors: CPUFAN1, SFAN1

The CPUFAN1 (processor fan) and SFAN1 (system fan) support system cooling fan
with +12V. It supports 3-pin head connector. W hen connecting the wire to the
connectors, always take note that the red wire is the positive and should be con-
nected 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 spe-
cially designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of the CPU fan control.
