With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their gaming PC can maintain its performance while staying cool. Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the motherboard. Not only that, with Smart Fan 5 more hybrid fan headers that support both PWM and Voltage mode fans have been introduced to make the motherboard more liquid cooling friendly.

Assume complete control over your liquid cooling setup! Smart Fan 5 receives
up-to-the-second information
on flow-rate and water-temperature through the Hybrid Fan Pin Headers or external
thermistor sensors—giving
you absolute mastery over your PC.
• All Hybrid Fan Headers can automatically detect the type of cooling device
whether it be fan or
pump with different PWM or Voltage mode.

Sulfur compounds in the air can penetrate tiny onboard resistors creating chemical change and causing these resistors to open or short. If either of these occurs the motherboard will fail to function. By equipping resistors with an Anti-Sulfur Design GIGABYTE gives Ultra Durable Motherboards a whole new meaning.
