Fan Power Connectors: Cpu_Fan/Chs_Fan/Bak_Fan - MSI MS-6551 User Manual

Fan Power Connectors: CPU_FAN/CHS_FAN/BAK_FAN

The CPU_FAN (processor fan), CHS_FAN (system fan) & BAK_FAN
(power supply fan) support system cooling fan with +12V. It supports three-
pin head connector. When connecting the wire to the connectors, always take
note that the red wire is the positive and should be connected to the +12V, the
black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If the mainboard has a
System Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially de-
signed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of the CPU fan control.
Note:
1. Always consult the vendor for proper CPU cooling fan.
2. CPU Fan supports the fan control. You can install the PC Alert
utility that will automatically control the CPU Fan speed accord-
ing to the actual CPU temeperature.
