NZXT Kraken X62 fans issue

[ryanhuang0703]

Hi,

This my system configuration:
ASUS Maximus X Hero
Intel 8700k
NZXT Kraken X62

Currently I connect my X62 3pin to the aio_pump header and use a spilter to connect two PWM fans to 4 pin cpu_fan header. The pump is always run 100% and cannot control it by Fan Expert 4, which is fine. However, the fans behavior weird. It always run very fast and loud for only 1-2 seconds if the cpu temperature fluctuated around 40c. It is very annoying and I am afraid the fans will be damaged by such unnormal activity. I don’t know is it because of the Fan Expert 4 or the X62. Did any one see this before ?And any idea how to solve it? Thanks.

look my build i just go with gigabyte board... you need to connect pump on the cpu header pin where you connecting AIR CPU fan so DON'T connect pump on the AIO PUMP motherboard header

and for the kraken x62 it is the best thing to set a custom fan curve in CAM software

If I connect the pump to cpu_fan, the two fans connect to the pump instead of another 4pin header?

connect the pump on the cpu_fan and the radiator fans just connect with fan jack what you have from cable of the pump and that is it..connect USB and install CAM software ..yea don't connect radiator fans on the motherboard only on the pump and you only connect pump to the cpu_fan header on the motherboard and that is it
