This may be a stupid question. I'm looking at buying this motherboard (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157547) and I noticed the description says 1 x Chassis Fan Connector (4-pin).

Does this mean that it will only power one case fan? I want to use this (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139045) case, but will that MoBo power all three fans? I've only built one computer before this, so pardon the inexperience.

Also, is the Pro4 better? (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157512&cm_re=asrock_h97_pro-_-13-157-512-_-Product

Update: Looks like the pro model says:
2 x CPU Fan Connectors (1 x 4-pin, 1 x 3-pin)
2 x Chassis Fan Connectors (1 x 4-pin, 1 x 3-pin)
1 x Power Fan Connector (3-pin)

and it's cheaper. That should work, right?
 
Yeah that motherboard only has one chassis fan connector, but to be fair that is pretty typical of microATX boards. You can use splitters if you only want a couple more case fans, or you can use some kind of molex to fan header adapter.
