My Asus motherboard supports 2 PWM CPU fans and 3 voltage-controlled case fans via 4-pin headers. I've always used the supplied case fans with 2-pin PSU plug extenders, so the motherboard will only control the CPU fans' speeds.
One of my case fans has died, so I need a new one. I thought this would be a good opportunity to get three proper voltage-controlled case fans, but I'm struggling to work out which ones will do the job. The motherboard has 4-pin headers, but the case fans are voltage-controlled, not PWM. It may even support 3-pin connectors, as the polarity lug is off-centre. But which fans are 3-wire voltage controlled?
There are 2x 120mm and 1x 140mm case fans.
