The book on my Maximus Formula motherboard tells me "If installing a dual-core CPU, connect the chassis fan cable to the CHA_FAN1 connector to ensure system stability". Now the chassis fan cable is the CPU fan right? And if so why can I not plug it in the CPU_FAN? Has anyone experienced this problem???
