Hi guys, can you please give a little guidance on fan conns.
Mobo - ASUS P8P67
1off - 4pin CHA_fan1
1off - 3pin CHA_fan2
1off - 3pin PWR_fan1
1off - 3pin PWR_ fan2
Case - Coolmaster HAF X Nvidia Ed.
Fan - Front - 3Pin - red/black/white
Fan - Rear - 3pin - red/black/yellow
Fan - Side - 3pin - red/black/white
Fan - Top - 3pin - red/black/white
Fan - Internal - 3pin - red/black/ white - (Local to MoBo and PSU)
Can you advise me?
Are all yellow and white wires for speed control?
Which fans can plug into PWR and which into CHA?
Why do I have a 4pin MoBo fan connection?
How can I connect the 5 - 3pin fan conns into the available sockets.
Sorry to be so very basic with my questions, but the instruction leaflets that accompany the products are poor, and after trawling through the site forum I realise that lots of people attempting their first build have similar problems and they may also find your answers of great help.
As an aside: the case comes with a VGA bracket and I'm totally mystified as to what it's for and where it goes. Anybody else got this case and knows the answer? The booklet merely says 'Install VGA bracket or side air duct'. No reference anywhere to a side air duct!
