Fan pins in the B85

[Gloock]

Hey everyone.
I have a question, how many 3 and 4 pin headers are there in the MSI B-85 Gaming!?!

Oh ty so its 4 pin headers e.e
Ok another question, Is it possible to plug a 3 pin fan into a 4 pin header¿?

Yes, but it will most likely spin 100% all the time and you may have to disable the "faulty fan" message in BIOS, because the rpm can not be detected on a 3 pin fan.

The board will control the 3 pin fans if connected to sys_fan 1 or 2 (not 3) headers. Check the headers pinout in the manual.
