Hey, I'm assembling my first PC myself. I'm using a Rog Strix G gaming Wi-Fi motherboard and a Noctua NHD15. There are two fans for the NHD15, but my board only has one CPU fan pin slot—where should I install the second one?

You can connect it by following these steps:
1. Insert it into the pump header—it’s just a PWM header.
2. Use any PWM splitter; a 4-pin to dual 4-pin adapter works fine.
3. Connect the remaining fan to another system fan header.
Good luck with your project!

Yes, it's the CPU option in the top right of the second picture. Thanks for the update!

Both of these are PWM headers and either one should function.
