Do I have a power fan connector
« on: July 07, 2008, 03:31:25 PM »
I bought a new ASUS motherboard.  I have three fan connection plug in's.  The CPU
is ok and the chassis fan one is ok, but what about the power fan connector.  All
it does I BELIEVE  is measure the speed of the Power Supply Fan.

I have a device I found is my miscellanous collection that on one end is a 3 prong
plug in with a black and red wire going to it, with one not connected.  The black
and red wire go back to a 4 prong power connector .  The red goes to a yellow wire(I
believe is 12V) and the black to black(I believe is ground).  Is this the correct
connector to use just to measure fan speed or is it even necessary?
