Phanteks Luxe

PC wont run. All components are installed.
Every time I switch the power on all lights come on. Fans spin and light up for a few seconds then go off. Repeats.
But one thing iv noticed is the CPU cooler fans don't move. I cant tell if pump getting powered either.
Luxe case has a power management which most fans connected to 3 pin points on it. 4 pin from power management goes to motherboard CPU 4 pin socket
Corsair 75 pump because the fans are 4 pin and the pump power is 3 pin. I am connecting direct to motherboard.
Something doesn't seem right

Semi sorted. Taken 4pin luxe power management cable and plugged in into CPU OP on motherboard and plugged my two CPU fans using a y splitter into CPU fan. The pump which is 3 pin plugged into one of 4 pin fan sockets on motherboard. But cant tell if its working. touching it as I turn on pc and cant feel anything moving. Corsair H75 isn't it suppose to light up?
What motherboard do you have?
Plug the H75 pump into CPU_OPT if you have one and the H75 fans (via splitter) into CPU_FAN
If you do not have CPU_OPT (usually next to CPU_FAN), plug the hub into CPU_FAN and power your fans via that. Your pump can also be plugged in as you don't need to connect all 4 sockets (the 4th is PWM which the hub provides)
Don't worry about the other fans for the minute as you probably have other SYS_FAN points on the motherboard you can plug these into (and control the speed via the BIOS probably - depends on your mobo)
Personally, I got a front bay fan controller as I don't like the hub

I have Gigabyte x99-SLI Motherboard. Should I feel pump moving when I touch it?
I can't say as I don't have an AIO. In a custom loop you can see the fluid moving but you don't have clear pipes.
I've never had to check mine by feel.
Use the OPT for the pump and FAN for the fans.
Your case fans will plug into the SYS FAN slots located around the board.
Double check your connections are all plugged in and that the front bay power etc is in the correct place (not always clear on positive and negative)
