What is cha fan on motherboard?

What is cha fan on motherboard?

Asus refers to them as chassis fans or CHA-FAN. I have heard of other motherboards refer to them as case fans. Regardless of what name you call it, these are the headers you use to plug in the fans that are used to cool your enclosure or case.

Does it matter which cha fan I use?

it depends on which fan….. the fan on the cpu cooler NEEDS to be connected to CPU FAN, only way motherboard can detect if that fan stops working. Other fans it really doesn’t matter…

What is a cha fan port?

“Chassis Fan Connector” is a pin power connector that goes from your motherboard to the case’s fan, or from “Fan Controller” (Also called “Reobass”) hardware to the fan.

Is Cha fan the same as CPU fan?

Well… the CPU fan is for the fan on the CPU, while the chassis fan is for fans on the case (aka chassis). All right, enough with being a smartass. Chassis fans are typically ‘dumb’ fans which spin at a specific speed. If you want your fan to spin slower/quieter then you add a fan line resistor.

Can I use CPU opt for a case fan Reddit?

Yes – though the CPU_Opt header is often tied to the same control input as the CPU_Fan (CPU temp), so the fans on the CPU_Opt header will run the same as your CPU_Fan connected fans.

Can I plug fan hub into CPU opt?

Can I plug a fan hub into CPU_OPT or CPU_FAN? Yes. But I’d recommend you use CPU_OPT or a case fan header and keep CPU_FAN just for the CPU. And make sure that you’re not powering a lot of fans from one header.

What is CPU_Opt Asus?

CPU_OPT, standing for “CPU Optional”, is mostly used when you have more than one fan on your cooler/radiator and you need someplace to plug it in. It’s basically CPU_FAN without the “not booting if nothing is connected to it” part.

Can I connect a 3 pin CPU fan to a 4 pin?

Please Note: You can connect a 3 Pin Fan to a 3 Pin or 4 Pin header on the motherboard. The fan will function normally no matter type of fan header is used. The fan connector will have two guides (1) and these will need to line up with the tab (2) that is on the motherboard fan header.

Can I plug a SYS fan into CPU opt?

Yes you could as it is a fan for the CPU cooler but it is suggested that you plug the fan in the CPU fan header and not the opt one. It will definitely work though, it should work about the same as if you plugged it in the CPU fan header slot. CPU_OPT header is usually for liquid cooling reservoirs and pumps.
