[SOLVED] Using AIO header for fan?

[ashdavid]

Hey All,
Another (maybe stupid) question. I have a ASUS ROG Strix X570-E Gaming ATX Motherboard and it has a CPU_FAN header and a AIO_PUMP header. I was wondering if I could run just a fan and no pump off this header?

The reason for wanting to do this is, I am guessing that the fan speeds that are linked to the CPU temps on the CPU_FAN header are also on the AIO_PUMP header and I was hoping to connect my radiator fan to this header.

Thanks

Yes you can although you should check in BIOS if AiO_Pump header is adjustable for speed. most of them are not because AiO coolers usually need pumps to run at full speed or have own controller.
