8. CPU, Chassis, and Power Fan connectors (4-pin CPU_FAN,

3-pin CHA_FAN1, PWR_FAN)
The fan connectors support cooling fans of 350 mA ~ 2000 mA (24

W max.) or a total of 1 A ~ 3.48 A (41.76 W max.) at +12V. Connect

the fan cables to the fan connectors on the motherboard, making

sure that the black wire of each cable matches the ground pin of the

connector.

Only the CPU_FAN connector supports the ASUS Q-Fan 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 place jumper caps on the fan connectors!

9. Chassis intrusion connector (4-1 pin CHASSIS)

This connector is for a chassis-mounted intrusion detection sensor or

switch. Connect one end of the chassis intrusion sensor or switch cable

to this connector. The chassis intrusion sensor or switch sends a high-

level signal to this connector when a chassis component is removed or

replaced. The signal is then generated as a chassis intrusion event.
By default, the pins labeled “Chassis Signal” and “Ground” are shorted

with a jumper cap. Remove the jumper caps only when you intend to

use the chassis intrusion detection feature.
