No, mobo is 12V also, but most will let you modulate it using a tool like speedfan. You can get 7V from a molex if you want to slow it down, google 7V trick
so you get the best fan speed with mb .. also i am using speed fan .. i just plugged the 3 pin in the mbQuote:

You get the highest speed yes, I recommend turnign on speedfans auto setting, together with setting your desired temperatures in the configure page, i find i can run with my fans at about 45% at idle with no noticeable rise in temps.
