Seraun Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 So I am going to preface this with I have never built a computer before and this is my first build. So I just got my Motherboard today and I was installing it on my brand new 600T. Now I know that when the rest of my parts come in the next few days it might make more sense to me, but I am not sure where to hook up all the fan connectors and the USB cable from the control panel. maybe I am being a little premature in asking but any help from those who have used this combo would be greatly appreciated.

Seraun Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 Maybe I am asking the wrong question. Maybe this is a better one. Where do I connect the 3-pin connectors for the Fan Controller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekaw Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 what do you mean 3 pin connectors for fan controller? you just gotta hook those up to your fans and 4 pin molex to PSU. I had the mobo until couple days ago, swapped it out with crosshair IV formula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraun Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 So what goes to the mobo first the fan connector or the connectors from the controller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraun Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 Or do i not connect my fans or the fan controller to the mother board at all? and if that is what you are saying what does the USB cable go to? The documentation for the 600T I am finding to be somewhat lacking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowbeard Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 You do not connect a fan controller to the MOBO. Connect your fans 1 of 3 ways. Directly to the PSU. To the MOBO fan headers. To the fan controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogue71 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Or do i not connect my fans or the fan controller to the mother board at all? and if that is what you are saying what does the USB cable go to? The documentation for the 600T I am finding to be somewhat lacking the fan controller has a bunch of small 3 pin connectors that come with "caps," in case you dont use them all. those get connected to your case fans. then you plug the large 4pin molex connector to the psu to get your power. the fan controller is there so you dont have to plug the fans into the motherboard and you can still control the fan speed, for whatever its worth.
