Ok, the main issue has been taken care of, I unplugged the PWM/tach cable from either port Mobo or CC Pro. It's running full speed without a problem. I went ahead and also changed the config for the Bios CPU Fan, switched to "ignore fan speed" that way I won't get the annoying message at boot up. What bothers me now is probably a bigger issue: the GPU you see in the picture is not working, is either thermal throttling or defective, I don't know how to figure this out without removing the GPU card from the system. I switched the video source to the Display Port in the Mobo, so I am running it with only minimal graphics. How can I take care of this?

The only way I think I can differentiate between slowing down or shutting down is with the flow indicator, this is completely stopped after a few seconds once new computer has been turned on. “NEVER hot plug the PWM cable for the XD5” can you please explain for me what do you mean by this? My electrical knowledge or skills are a bit limited. I have noticed that when starting the computer having the XD5 PWM cable connected to the Commander Pro, at start up there is a message from the BIOS that says that there is no fan connected to the CPU core fan port, is there a way to change or remove this?

I just completed my new system last night, deliberately I build an extremely water cooling loop to show off a bloody red tubing inside of a white case and chrome fittings, it has three radiators, 120, 240, 360. I also completed all the proper testing, I left the whole loop running for 24 hrs, not only for testing but to remove a couple of large bubbles inside the CPU and GPU water blocks. During all this time the pump never showed a single issue and it worked just fine. Unfortunately now that I finished the proper cable management and connected all the remaining components to the PSU, the XD5 shuts down after starting the computer on, it turnes on for a few seconds but then it shuts down, I have tried connecting the XD5 to the Mobo CPU fan port, and also to the Commander Pro hub Fan 6 port, either way it’s the same issue; I am very confused as to why is happening.
