Hi, I'm looking at getting the Asus ROG Strix x99 Gaming motherboard for my new build.
https://www.asus.com/au/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-X99-GAMING
The issue is that the case fans that come with the case I'm interested in buying (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133299) and other 200mm fans I plan on adding are 3 pin only. The Asus specification page for the motherboard states that it has 4 4-pin fan headers and 1 high amp fan header. It states that the 4-pin headers also have DC fan support. So my question is will i be able to control the speed of 3-pin fans when attached to these 4-pin fan headers with Asus FanExpert4? and would a 3-pin fan also work in the high amp fan header?
I hope to set up my Fans so that they will automatically adjust speed based on temperature requirements, as such, I would prefer not to have them always be running on full blast, as I believe typically happens when attaching 3 pin fans to 4 pin only headers.
