    Hello, Please assist! Putting together a build with an Asrock Nova Z790. On page 37 of the manual it shows the VRM fan connector. I am at a complete loss as to what cable I need to hook this up to a Corsair HX1000i power supply. These are both apart of a Phanteks NV7 for what its worth. Please...

Based on this, should I connect the controller to the Aura...

    Phanteks Evolv ATX Tempered Glass Fan Help (Cooling)

    I think I've decided to forget LED fans since they are kinda hidden anyway with this case and will just go LED strips.

    I've heard the W_PUMP header is for actual water cooling systems and not hybrid coolers like the H50, is this true?

    Asus Z97-A Sound Issue

    Replacement hardware just came in, not even going to bother installing it. Going to try an Asrock board.
