Does this board support PWM fans?

Yes, the bios actually supports manually configuration or pre-set settings for PWM control

Yes you will need to use a splitter or fan controller. A fan controller is convenient because you can tweak the speed of each fan. On the other hand if you want to keep things simple you can get a splitter. You would need a 4 pin PWM splitter if you have a 4 pin PWM fan. What I did in my other case was send the PWM signal to identical fans. This way each fan that is of the same type would be controlled by one PWM signal. You might want to look into that if you have PWM fans.

95w support on older motherboards is imposible if is am2+ otherwise new mobos support 95 and 120w remember check the cpu compatibility specs and if the bridge connector for pwa is about 4 or 8

It only support dual AMD Opteron processors. I have been using a 500W power supply with it with a bunch of lights and 8 fans plus 8 128g solid state drives and a regular hard drive and it seems to work fine.

You don't need an adapter, 3pin connector will fit a 4pin socket. However, you won't be able to manage fan speeds using PWM, for that you need PWM enabled fans, which are 4pin.

Seems like it. You can see this article to make sure. http://www.pcbheaven.com/wikipages/How_PC_Fans_Work/

My fans stopped working within a week of install. I modded a hobby wing heatsink-fan and it works great

Yes... to any 4-pin fan connector. I also happen to have this MoBo, I am using this adapter to energize 2 CPU cooler fans, and also a 3 to 1 adapter to energize a lot more :)

It's been a while since I built that PC as a gift to a relative. IIRC, those fans have molex power connectors, meant to attach directly to your power supply, not your motherboard.

Some fans will plug into your motherboard. Some fans use either 5VDC or 12VDC which is available from the numerous disk drive power connectors on the power supply harness.

Not really. You have a problem with the motherboard. Some motherboards tent to accelerate the fan cooler processor when nothing boots up.

Yes allows two fans to be plugged into one outlet on the motherboard. Mine works great, runs both fans on my water cooler.

It's 4 pin, and it will work with 3 pin. You just won't have PWM speed control. You'll have to adjust speed in the BIOS or with another application. Consider buying a board with 4 pins if that is an option, as 3 pin boards are usually of cheaper quality.

Yes it will. I prefer the 4 pin for the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) factor. Make sure to have equal speeds on both fans (if push/pull is wanted) use the Silverstone fan splitter. This splitter has one of the pins removed so that both fans run at the same rpm. Try this link for decent fans..good luck. http://www.frozencpu.com/cat/l3/g36/c365/s938/list/p1/Fans-12_Volt_Fans_-_PWM-80mm_x_25mm_PWM_Fans-Page1.html

Four. It's a PWM fan just as advertised. As M. Lambert commented, it has extra hookups to customize or even chain two or more of the same fan to the same PWM controller on the MOBO.

The timing/speed data from only one fan is passed to the motherboard; the pulse width modulation (PWM) from the motherboard is delivered the same to both fans. It would probably be a good idea to use identical fans.

Yes, according to the support website linked below. However, it requires a later BIOS version than what may be currently on your board. You may have to flash the BIOS to use it.http://goo.gl/7108ON
