Which of these mobos has true PWM fan connectors?
Posted: Wed Jan 15, 2014 2:22 pm
I'm trying to get a mATX Kaveri mobo which has 3 true PWM fan connectors (1 for CPU, 2 chassis).
So far I only see the Asus A88XM-PLUS/CSM and the Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-D3H having 3x 4pin fan connectors, but I'm worried they might be 'fake' connectors.
Here's the layout diagrams from the manuals for each mobo. I'm pretty sure the Gigabyte only has one true PWM, but I'm not entirely sure about the Asus; not sure about what VCC is?
