I have an ASRock H97 Anniversary motherboard http://asrock.pc.cdn.bitgravity.com/Manual/QIG/H97%20Anniversary_multiQIG.pdf and a Zalman Z1 Neo case http://www.zalman.com/global/product/Product_Read.php?Idx=836.

I have a fan in the back with a 3 pin connector. The motherboard has PWR_FAN1 (#1), CHA_FAN2 (#7), and CHA_FAN1 (#14) connectors. Which one should I use?

I also have two fans in the front both with some more serious "power supply" connectors. Where do they get connected?

The motherboard instructions show two ways do deal with the PLED connectors. Are they the same? Which ones should I use?

Thank you!!!

The mb pwm fan header is a 4 pin and it can control pwm fans. If the fan has 3 wires then connect it to a the 3 pin fan header

The PLED connects to that 9 pin header . It will only work if the polarity is correct, but no harm will result from reversing polarity other than the light wont come on

Thanks Outlander,

Perfect, I already did the 9 pin header, and did take into account polarity.

PWR_FAN1 (#1) and CHA_FAN2 (#7) are both 3 pin, and CHA_FAN1 (#14) is 4 pin. Which 3 pin should be used? EDIT. Ah, PWR_FAN1 is power supply fan? Well, I don't have one, so I should use CHA_FAN2?

As far as the other two fans in the front, just connect it to the power supply?
