This is to confusing Help!
I recently installed a g10 kraken to my R9 280x gpu with a h55 water cooler. The fan the kraken bring suppose to go connect to the gpu. This is were it get weird and confusing. When i connect it one way on the gpu fan it does not even spin and it shows 30 c idle and 45 c when playing bf4 on ultra. Then when i connected it the other way it turns on the fan and my gpu runs for some reason 75 c on idle. So i got scared. Took everything out and re installed it all over and re pasted it. Still the same issue. So i guess ill have it connect the other way from now on. I do not know if its a know glitch with my graphic card but w/e make it work works. I Also tried connecting the fan to my main board and my gpu display does not even turn on so i guess there is something that need to be connect to the gpu there so i left it connected. Is there anyway to fix it or should i just keep it like that ?

When completed, you should not be able to see the rear of the fan, where the nzxt sticker is.
When you install the gpu w/waterblock into the pc, you should be able to read NZXT normally at the rear of the card. Ie - it shouldn't be upside down.

All this is just like he shows you in the video.
