Okay I got the MBM ver5.xx, I got it all up and everything, but for some reason when I go into my bios and check the temps it reads the cpu temp, but my chassis fan has nothing. I have no fans in my cpu as of yet, but I did buy Sunon 80mm fans and what I want to know is do I have to get the 4 to 3 plug adaptor so I can plug the case fan into my MB instead of the power supply?

Yes you need the adapter to adapt the 4 pin molex connector. But... you really don't need to. In all my rigs, I run the fans off of the Power supply or a second PSU in some instances. Depending on the power rating of the fans - some of them you don't want running on the mobo.

Ya, You dont really have to worry about that unless you really want to monitor your fans.
