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 +12 V. 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.

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.

Only the CPU_FAN and CHA_FAN connectors support the
ASUS Q-Fan 2 feature.

For some chassis models with short 3-pin chassis fan cable, connect the
cable to the PWR_FAN connector.
