4. Fan and Pump headers
The Fan and Pump headers allow you to connect fans or pumps to cool the system.
• DO NOT forget to connect the fan cables to the fan headers. Insufficient air flow
inside the system may damage the motherboard components. These are not
jumpers! Do not place jumper caps on the fan headers!
• Ensure the cable is fully inserted into the header.
• For water cooling kits, connect the pump connector to the W_PUMP+ header.
• For better Q-Fan functions, we recommend using 4-pin PWM fans when you connect
powerful fans (1A or above) onto the H_AMP fan header.
