Hi,
I'm putting together my HTPC.
I've noticed that the case fan (the fan from the Silverstone LC02 case) has a three pin socket on the end of it.
Whilst the motherboard SYS_FAN socket has four metal legs.
Now the three holes in the plug will fit the 4 prong connector- one is just left unconnected, and there are little plastic lugs on the back which force you to use the first three prongs.
So would I be right in assuming I can just plug the fan cable into the SYS_FAN socket with one prong unused and everything will be OK??
I assume that the unused one is speed control or something like that.
I'd appreciate some advice.
Cheers.
