I want to maximize the cooling in my system, so i need to know what the maximum amount of case fans the Asrock h97 pro4 can support. On the specifications page of the motherboard it lists this:
2 x CPU Fan Connectors (1 x 4-pin, 1 x 3-pin)
2 x Chassis Fan Connectors (2 x 4-pin)
1 x Power Fan Connector (3-pin)
Together this would mean that it supports 5 case fans, but of course i'd need to connect my CPU cooler fan, so that leaves me with 4, but i don't know if the case fans would actually work with a CPU fan connector, and a power fan connector.
Can someone please explain this to me, about if the fans can connect to these connectors, and the differences between these connectors, so that in future i'd know straight away.
