I heard somewhere that you should have your pump plugged into the power supply at all times? If i plug it into a cpu header can i control the speed? I believe they said it was bad to have it running below 100%?
I have a Coolermaster Nepton 140XL
On a side note do most fans come with a power supply to fan adapter?
