Only the CPU-FAN and CHA-FAN 1-3 connectors support the ASUS Q-
FAN 2 feature.
If you install two VGA cards, we recommend that you plug the rear
chassis fan cable to the motherboard connector labled CHA�FAN1
or CHA�FAN2 for better themal environment.
Never connect a USB cable to the IEEE 1394a connector. Doing so will damage
the motherboard!
You can connect the 1394 cable to ASUS Q-Connector (1394, red) rst, and
then install the Q-Connector (1394) to the 1394 connector onboard.
