7. CPU and chassis fan connectors
(4-pin CPU_FAN; 4-pin CPU_OPT;4-pin CHA_FAN1-3)
Connect the fan cables to the fan connectors on the motherboard, ensuring that the
black wire of each cable matches the ground pin of the connector.
The CPU_FAN connector supports the CPU fan of maximum 1A (12 W) fan power.
All the CPU and CHA fans support ASUS Fan Xpert 2 feature.
If you install two VGA cards, we recommend that you plug the rear chassis fan cable
to the motherboard connector labeled CHA_FAN1-3 for better thermal environment.
Do not forget to connect the fan cables to the fan connectors. Insufcient air ow inside the
system may damage the motherboard components. These are not jumpers! Do not place
jumper caps on the fan connectors!
