No the regulation doesn't work - at least on Asus. I think there could be some boards which can also realize speed regulation on a 3-pin connector but the Asus feature "qfan" has never been working with 3-pin fans on my Asus boards. Although there are different reports concerning this matter in a German support thread for Asus P5K.
For PWM type regulation the fourth pin is necessary. I am using Zalman Fanmate 2 for regulation purposes but Scythe is offering a new fan controller if you want to do it from outside of the case.
