Fan Headers

This motherboard has five fan headers (Fan1 to Fan5). These 4-pin fans headers are backward compatible with 3-pin fans. However, fan speed control is available for 4-pin fans only. The fan speeds are controlled by the BIOS (H8SCM) or IPMI if present (H8SCM-F). See the table on the right for pin definitions
