pump and fan in same header?

[boknoykatok]

is it okay to connect the pump and fan in the same header?

FAN rated current: 0.21±10%A(MAX) (4pin)
PUMP current: 0.25±10%A(MAX) (3pin)

Check the manual. It should say how its supposed to be connected.

See http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/build-budget-microatx-gaming-pc,3920-4.html

"Attach the pump’s cable to the motherboard’s case fan header, boot the board into the BIOS, and ensure that the water pump is not subject to automatic fan control. The pump requires a steady, unmodulated +12 V supply."

So NO. Connect the pump directly to the PSU - molex or sata connector (12v)

also "The fan’s cable is attached to the motherboard’s CPU fan header, but perhaps you want to set the fan to run a tad faster than the default, as it also has to handle some of the graphic card’s heat."
