Hi,

Just wanna ask I'm getting the Auraflow x 360 AIO but my motherboard B350m mortar doesn't have a Pump Header, so where do I plug in the pump cable for the AIO.
 
Hi, thanks for the reply. After I plugged it in on the CPU header do I need to set it to 100%? or the motherboard automatically do that?

I believe AIO pump will go to full speed all the time, the fans are the only thing that change RPM. Personally I think AIOs are more trouble then they are worth and a good air cooler is going to be just as efficient if not better (like Noctua or bequiet ) then many many AIOs on the market.

For pump any Fan header would do Sys_Fan or whatever is called on your MB. It's operation curve should be set to constant max speed or to adjust by CPU temperature. Fans to CPU_FAN header for sure.

Hi,

Thanks for replying. So it's okay to plug the pump to any of the sys_fan/CPU fans, as long as it's running 100%?

this is the CPU and sys_fans configurations in my board.

Air cooler Noctua dh15 was my first choice but the budget and the chunkinest of the Noctua made me push in getting an AIO
