None? Wow. I know for a fact the ASUS Z170-A has one, and few other Z170 boards maybe, but I know for sure the ASUS has one. Well try it. It won't fry it or skill it for sure. And it's still just a fan. Just make sure you align the pins correctly

The W_PUMP connector seems to be monitored separately in the tuning software. It may also be effected by the TPU switch. It should work fine for a standard 3-pin fan anyway.
