cheeze wrote Firstly, thank you very much for the rep kind sir. Secondly, I struggled to comprehend what you meant but I'm pretty sure you were asking about how/if you could control the fans speed(?) and how to connect them to your individual motherboard. To change fan RPM, some motherboards offer a tool that can do it, or it can even be done in the BIOS of some motherboards. Having no knowledge of your particular mobo, I cannot comment. However, I suggest googling your board and see if you can find out whatever you need to know. Secondly, 3rd party programs can be used to change fan speed amongst other things, like monitoring temperatures. Again, a quick check on google will get you what you need. Finally, to connect the fans you've bought, there SHOULD be a guide either in the motherboards manual OR the fan's manual. All the best, always willing to help.


Sorry for badly wording it.
I am talking about using monitoring programs for the PC.

1.Case fans can be plugged in to the power supply which will run the fans at a constant speed and NOT allow any kind of monitoring eg. RPM
2.They can be plugged into the mother board. This will allow you to monitor and adjust their speed.

What I mean is how many fans will I be able to plug into the MOBO (Just to clear things up)

I just did some digging and found what I was looking for.
Motherboard Ports Present & Quantity:
CPU x 1 / System x 4 FAN connectors

I am assuming this means that I can have the CPU fan with monitoring enabled and also 4 case fans with monitoring enabled.

Thanks a lot.
It's fine, I'm glad you found what you needed, all the best with your build mate
