On the Asus P6X58D Premium, there are three fan connectors, each called CHA_FAN1/2/3. However, CHA_FAN1 has 4-pins, while 2 and 3 have 3-pins. Interestingly, the CHA_FAN1 extra pin isn't labeled PWM in the manual, but +5V. What does +5V mean, and what does it imply for choice of fan to connect? Should I connect the biggest fan, the smallest fan, or does it not matter?
All my fans have three-pin plugs anyway, so does it even matter, since I'll have to leave the +5v pin empty anyway?
All three are supported by Asus Fan Xpert so it has nothing to do with fan control, through PWM or through Asus utilities. I'm guessing it means that it supports a bigger fan?
Thanks,
Brian
