Hey

I've got a computer based on a chieftec dragon case and IS7 mobo.

I've bought 4 Zalman ZM-F1 80mm case fans which I want to connect to the
mobo, so I can use software to control their speed. (maybe I can control the
speed in bios - for example set rpm on 60% of max)

So I'm wondering what connectors on the mobo is it I can connect these fans
to so I can control the speed ?

Specifically which IS7 version is it?

Mine is an IS7-E2 and has three headers for fan control
(system/cpu/aux).

I use SpeedFan (free) to control them all and it's magic.
Much of the time my cpu fan is only running at 20% but I do have
a v/good HSF assembly.

thank you so much for your help. I've already got SpeedFan installed on my
computer. But haven't used it so much before. I installed it to check the
temperature inside my case. but after installing fans then I'll be using it
a lot more I think.

I've got the basic IS7 version.

ok - Speedfan settings can be a little tricky to work out; so if you
need any guidance on that I could post my own which might give some
insight.

There's a .pdf User Manual for the IS7 mobo here:
