" rel="nofollow - Hello, I am wondering if there is any way to control the speed of three pin fans on the Z170 Extreme3? I know you can do voltage control on some other AsRock motherboards but can it be done on the Extreme3?

Dear BETA,

Greetings, this is ASRock TSD.

All fan headers including CPU and Chassis fan on Z170 Extreme3 can support to control the fan speed when connecting 4-pin fan or 3-pin fan.

Please note that if you plan to connect a 3-Pin fan, please connect it to pin 1-3.

Thanks!

All the best,

ASRock TSD
