6. Front panel audio connector (10-1 pin AAFP)
This connector is for a chassis-mounted front panel audio I/O module that supports
either HD Audio or legacy AC`97 audio standard. Connect one end of the front panel
audio I/O module cable to this connector.
• We recommend that you connect a high-denition front panel audio module to this
connector to avail of the motherboard’s high-denition audio capability.
• If you want to connect a high-denition front panel audio module to this connector, set
the Front Panel Type item in the BIOS setup to [HD Audio]. If you want to connect an
AC'97 front panel audio module to this connector, set the item to [AC97]. By default, this
connector is set to [HD Audio]. See section 2.4.3 Chipset for details.

Do not forget to connect the CPU fan cables to the fan connector. Insufcient air ow inside
the system may damage the motherboard components. This is not a jumper! Do not place a
jumper cap on the fan connector!
5. CPU and chassis fan connectors (4-pin CPU_FAN, 3-pin CHA_FAN)
The fan connectors support cooling fans of 350 mA~2000 mA (24 W max.) or a total of
1 A~3.48 A (41.76 W max.) at +12V. Connect the fan cables to the fan connectors on
the motherboard, ensuring that the black wire of each cable matches the ground pin of
the connector.
