Question: How many fans can be installed to this motherboard? Will five be fine? Or will I need to get a splitter?
Document: Been in desktop support for almost 20 years. I've built many machines. This was probably the easiest one yet. (I kept my Thermaltake 700 watt PS (TR2 series) and my CoolerMaster caser)I did not use the stock cpu heatsink and fan that came with the processor. I have an Zalman CNPS9900A LED.No problems with any parts. Posted just fine with everything connected first time. Windows installed just fine. No problems. Updated motherboard drivers using the MSI Live Update.
After installing the motherboard and booting Windows, Windows required installing drivers. No problem there. After that was all settled, and i installed the SUB 3.0 driver from the CD that comes with the board, Windows was asking me to reactivate. Ive never had this happen to me before. So i had to reactivate Windows four times, and now its working fine.With these problems, i have a feeling that my system is rather unstable and can crash at anytime.

i love this motherboard it works great with my current setup (8gb ram 1066 ddr3,duel core amd athlon ii x2 250 sata 2 hard drive, 2 fans, geforce gt 640) And i can upgrade up too amd fx 8 cores, bad part is i read that there is issues with 125watt cpu's, havent used one so no clue so im saving up for amd fx 6300 should work fine, 95 watts.
Web searches suggest this is a bug in the bios and exists for 970 and 990 chipsets. Bios updates are required to fix this, although the board works fine with this feature disabled.3) The IOMMU setting does not affect Windows 7 Pro, but Windows requires drivers to be installed for the on-board Ethernet card. (Not the fault of MSI)4) The on-board Ethernet card died after 2 days of use: the leds stopped lighting up, and the OS could see no network.
I actually uninstalled winki due too to many issues like for example the right click selections due no register and I have not found a way to actually set my language so some times at the back up your hard drive option in the bios it asks for your language since the mouse selections don't register I find myself trying to figure out in spanish or chinese how to get back to the language settings. Also the mini operating system looks very sleek but for example setting your internet could be difficult for beginners.
I suggest you read this to get an understanding of the board. I've been doing PC tech work since around 2007, and this is the first time i've ever ran into an issue where i feel like i need to write a review about it with a low rating.I bought this board with the intent that i will be upgrading to the Vishera family of AMD processors. And so far i've been able to find a few things i think are cons with this board.

I got this because I was building my computer, and needed something cheap that worked good. However, when I put everything I have together (I still need to get my graphics card but thats not required for a computer to work properly), I decided to turn it on and get Windows on it. As i was plugging everything in, I found a big problem. The only video port on this is a male serial port.
Use Office 2007 for very light personal stuff. I do play a lot of games. I have never been one for needing to squeeze out every frame per second I can get, I just want to play. I used Steam for my games. Skyrim downloaded and installed in less than 30 minutes. (I have Comcast Blast). Skyrim runs in ultra high settings and runs great, smooth. Played for 45 minutes last night no problems.
Answer: This motherboard has 3 fan headers: CPUFAN, SYSFAN1 and SYSFAN2. SYSFAN1 is 4 pin and SYSFAN2 is 3 You'd need the appropriate splitter cable to connect five fans.
