Dual fan connections question

Hi all,

I'm looking at replacng the stock Intel i5 3570 cooler with a Noctua NH-D14. The stock Intel cooler has a 4 wire fan that I've connected to the 4 pin CPU_fan1 connection on my ASrock Z77 Extreme 6 Mobo.

The Noctua cooler has dual 3 wire fans and comes with a cable that enables you to bridge the two fans together and connect them both to a single connection on the Mobo. The ASrock Z77 Extreme 6 Mobo has a CPU_fan1 4 pin connecter and a CPU_fan2 3 pin connecter.

Just wondering if I should:

1. Bridge the 2 Noctua fans together using the supplied cable and connect them to CPU_fan1 on the Mobo (if so how do I know if the Mobo can run 2 fans from a single connection?)
2. Connect one fan to CPU_fan1 and the oher to CPU_fan2 on the Mobo
3. Connect both directly to the PSU and have them run full speed all the time

Help appreciated.

Peter
