kezzaman Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Hi, This question has probably been asked and answered many times but i cant find an answer im confident in. I have the Corsair H60 and my mobo only has a single fan header/connection (the 1 for the cpu) can i connect both the pump and fan to that using a splitter? Thanks to anyone who replies.

babdi Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 IMO it is desirable to connect only the pump to CPU header. Using a splitter to connect fan will cause voltage to drop between pump and the fan. Reduction in voltage will make the pump spin slower heating up your CPU. You can connect the fan to a Power supply using a fan molex connector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
