Default Gigabyte smart fan BIOS options

Is anyone familiar with Gigabyte's Smart Fan?

I have 3 options in the BIOS for it

Auto
Voltage
PWM

I know what Auto and PWM do, but how does voltage work? Is it for 3 pin fans? o.o

The amount of voltage a fan gets. The more it gets the faster it goes but dont do it unless the fan has different voltage ratings for different speeds or itl die
