From what i read..They used to be part of asus but there not anymore...

 

[anuraj]

yep nice post anyway.

 

[Scuzzy]

Very Nice board indeed...........

6th picture board looks bent lol.

6 fan connecters...(2 above CPU socket,2 above sata sockets & 2 at bottom left)

But don't like where they put the 4 pin molex socket..

Any word on whether the ASRock BIOS allows control of 3-pin fans?

Looks like you cancontrol 4 of them..

 

[Darien]

I mean can it control 3-pin fans, or does it only control 4-pin PWM fans?

Looks like it from that bios picture

But I let you know for sure after i received my board..

 

[Darien]

Thanks mate.

Also wondering whether a Noctua U12P would fit this thing using the socket 775 mounting holes - ASRock claims the board is compatible with socket 775 coolers, but Noctua's compatability guide says you need a 1155/1156 adapter. I can't tell if it's just Noctua playing it safe, or if there's some sort of clearance issue when using the 775 holes.

Though this motherboard provides 4-Pin CPU fan (Quiet Fan) support, the 3-Pin
CPU fan still can work successfully even without the fan speed control function.
(From the Manual) Looks like it doesn't.

Sorry i can't help you on this one..

As i have one these Zalman coolers coming with my board http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-054-ZA&groupid=701&catid=57&subcat=1395

(But i am hoping that my socket 775 D-TEK waterblock will fit as am thinking of going back to watercooling)

 

[Darien]

Eh the adapter is only $5, might as well play it safe.

 

[Steves1982]

Any definitive news on the 3 pin fan control yet?

 

[Darien]

I'm going to go with no on the 3-pin fan control. Not sure if that means there are any motherboards which still have that option.

 

[Steves1982]

That's a shame. Will have to use a PWM Y cable to connect the 2 cpu fans to the 4 pin cpu header. My intakes will run from molex anyway and have speed switches. Just the one exhaust fan I guess I won't be able to control then.

Why have 1 x 4 pin cpu header and 1 x 3 pin cpu header if you can only control one? Surely most people that have 2 cpu fans will have 2 the same!

 

[Steve0]

The fans can be controlled with the AXTU (tuner utility)
