I am buying a motherboard a ASUS Maximus V FORMULA and it only has 4 pin PWM fan headers and I want to know if it is possible to run a 3 pin fan on these headers.

Yes it's possible, maybe you will need to set the cpu fan header from automatic to advanced to support voltage control, but it will work ;) .

It'll work, but obviously won't use PWM.
