Chapter 1

10.  Fan and Pump connectors

The Fan and Pump connectors allow you to connect fans or pumps to cool the 

system.

• 

DO NOT forget to connect the fan cables to the fan connectors. Insufficient air 

flow inside the system may damage the motherboard components. These are not 

jumpers! Do not place jumper caps on the fan connectors!

• 

Ensure the cable is fully inserted into the connector.

Connect the fan of your water cooling kit to the AIO_PUMP connector.
