You are NO fun! :)
Yeah, I KNOW.
FYI: the solution requires a three pin connector to the mobo that will not draw any more than 6w (@12v). I don’t care if a a Molex connnector is also required, but fundamentally the solution requires software fan-speed control. Asus is good in that regard, but I will settle for either MotherBoardMonitor, or SpeedFan; I’d rather Asus PCProbe).
