Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anyone who has purchased this motherboard knows how many case fans it will support before needing something more to control about 20 case fans. Thank you!

    As a rule of 2a per header & a max of around 7a in total for the board and if you are enquiring about the z170 Sabertooth mark one, you have 1 x CPU Fan connector (4 -pin), 1 x CPU OPT Fan connector (4 -pin) and 6 x Chassis Fan connectors (4 -pin). You basically need to know what your total max fan amps are. Or maybe get a dedicated fan controller instead of or as well as?

    "About 20 case fans." What are you Building that you would need 20 Case Fans and what case are you looking at?
