H100i Platinum- advice needed

Jase · 26 Mar 2020 at 16:28

Just a quick question regarding setting up the H100i Platinum.

In the manual for cooler is say to connect to the CPU Fan connector on the motherboard.

In the manual for the motherboard it says for all in one connect the pump to the AIO_PUMP connector.

Do I assume I go with the motherboard instructions?

Thanks

What UnLuckyBenski said.

Motherboard AIO/pump fan header can handle higher load without burning out than CPU fan header.

I had to use the CPU fan header in the end as the BIOS kept reporting a CPU Fan error when it wasn't attached, the cooler has sata power too so not sure where most power comes from.
