Could someone help point out fan header connections on motherboard?

Probably a really silly question but it's my first build and can only find one fan header as it is listed CHA_FAN2 just underneath the connection, I've circled in read the fan header that I'm currently using. Thank you in advance

According to the manual (really near the front)

Thank you, very helpful. So since it has only the two fan headers, would you recommend I go with one exhaust and one intake for now whilst I order a some Y splitters?

Sounds reasonable.

You could just plug it (extra fans) into the PSU with an adapter thing, but you won't have any control over it (will run at full pelt) unless you buy a resistor cable or have a fan controller hub.

I presumed the OP already had a CPU cooler connected to that one...

If you want more fans Akasa does https://www.overclockers.co.uk/akasa-ak-cb002-pwm-fan-splitter-cable-cb-031-ak.html comes in handy sometimes. PWM controlled but powered by molex so overload is not an issue.
