Hello,
I have a 4 pin PWM 120mm fan I would like to use inside my case. My fan controller only has 3 pin connectors with plastic housing around these connectors preventing any 4 pin connectors from being connected. So decided I could use my motherboard's fan headers for this 120mm fan. I found two 4 pin fan headers on the motherboard. One is for the CPU, and the second one is labelled SYS_FAN2. But according to the manual this fan header SYS_FAN2 has a different pin layout then the CPU fan header. Basically I'm trying to figure out if this fan will be controlled by temperature if connected to the SYS_FAN2 header as I don't want it running full speed. In the BIOS I can only find a setting for the CPU fan header. Below is a picture of the pin layout for both the CPU and SYS fan headers.
Any experience with this specific motherboard and its fan headers you can share on the topic is appreciated. Thank you.
