Hi I've recently purchased the phanteks primo case and I'm trying to get the pwn hub working. My scenario is this. I have a water cooling loop so I don't have any direct pump or heat sink that I have to plug into my mother board. I use the 4 pin pwm cable and plug it into my cpu fan header, I then use just one of my noctua fans which I have on my radiator for my master fan in slot 1, I then plug the rest of the fans into the hub. The sata power cAble is also plugged in as I have 8+ fans.

Now my problem is, when I boot up I get cpu fan error. Is this because it is not reading a fan speed and I need to set my cpu fan speed to ignore?? If I do this will it still read the temperatures so my pwm hub will still work correctly?

I have got it working but not the way the manual says so I don't actually know wether it working properly. I have my 4pin pwm cable plugged into a chassis 4 pin slot and just one of my case fans in the cpu fan header. Everything boots and all fans are turned on but I don't know wether it will be reading temps and working as it should. My motherboard is rampage v extreme.

Thanks in advance.
 
if you don't have anything connected to the cpu fan header then disable the cpu fan in the bios. Happened to me many times when water cooling my rig, always forget to disable the cpu fan.
