Hi,
I'm sorry, I'm pretty new to this. I decided to finally get a water cooler for my computer, and I'm not sure where to plug in the water cooler fan and pump.
Water Cooler - Corsair H75
Case - Rosewill Challenger
Motherboard - GIGABYTE GA-Z170-HD3P
Where do I plug in the pump? As of right now, I have my water cooler pump plugged into the SYS FAN while the dual fans are connected to a Y adapter which is plugged into the CPU fan. No, I do not have a 3 pin to Molex adapter to plug into the PSU, so please don't mention that as an option. I hear people can plug it into the motherboard, but again, I'm really confused on which plug should go where.
I'm not entirely sure if I'm right. Can someone please verify?
Also, my rear fans are exhausting air. Is that correct? As of right now, I have a front intake, top 140mm exhaust, and I set my dual rear fans to exhaust.
EDIT: Other information
The CPU pump plug on the Corsair H75 is 3 pin, and the dual fans (which are connected to a Y adapter) is 4 pin.
My motherboard - the CPU fan is 4 pin, and the SYS fan 3 is 3 pin. I do have a SYS Fan 2 that is 4 pin available, but again, not sure on where to plug anything really.
I know the cpu pump is suppose to be running at full power. (12V) I'm assuming if I plug into the SYS fan, it should be running at full power automatically?
Any help is appreciated.
