CPU cooling, where should i connect the water pump and the fan? motherboard or power supply?

[Cosmin_123]

i recently bought this CPU cooler: ID Cooling Frostflow 120l, and i only have one slot with 4 pins on the motherboard named CPU_Fan, the other slot, SYS_FAN, does not work.

Also, i need to know how is best to set up my CPU cooler. I have a pump connector with 4 pins and a fan connector with 3 pins.

Should i connect the water pump directly to the power supply with a 3 pin splitter and the fan to the motherboard on the CPU_FAN slot?

thanks

you should connect the radiator fan to the motherboard so that motherboard can control the speed pf the fan and the pump to the power supply with the 3 pin connector.
