My question is about the fans in my new case, and where they connect to the motherboard ( Gigabyte GA-8IPE1000 Pro-G ). I have (1) 120mm fan in the rear of the case ( blowing out ), (1) 90mm fan in the top of the case ( blowing down ), (1) 90mm fan in the left hand panel ( blowing in ), and (1) 80 mm fan in the front ( blowing in ). The power supply ( which i am supposed to receive tomorrow ), is an Enermax EG475AX-VE(W)Noisetaker ( which has a 3 pin fan sense connector ), which ofcourse is blowing out. After much debating, i think that the 3 pin fan sense connector from the power supply should probably connect to the "PWR_FAN" connector on the mother board. Now that leaves me with only the "SYS_FAN" connector ( i believe this connector is for fan control speed ), for the other 4 fans. Is there a jumper that will connect all 4 fans to this one "SYS_FAN" connector on the mother board, and secondly, will that connector be able to support all those fans? My appologies for the lengthy question.
