There are too many cables. Just got confused with what to do with all the fans. I'm not used to having basically 3 CPU fans and a pump and then 3 case fans on top of it.
Since my mainboard only has 2 CPU fan headers and I have a 3x radiator I'll have to plop the fan hub of the case into the CPU fan header and put the radiator fans on the hub. And then I'll have to get the case fans to the other fan headers on the board. I don't think it's very useful to have the case fans and radiator fans go the same speed. The board only has 3 headers for the case fans and they are all over the place.
The NZXT manual is actually terrible. I have no idea what each of the cables they want me to plug into the pump are for. Why the fuck are there fan connectors coming from the pump? Am I supposed to plug the fans into the pump after all?
edit: ok after half an hour of manual reading and frustration I figured it out. Kinda.
There is a breakout cable for 3 cables on one PWM header. I'm gonna use that for the 3 radiator fans and put it on the CPU FAN header.
Then there is a 3 pin connector coming from the pump which I'll put on the AIO header. I assume that's for power.
Then there is also a SATA connector. I assume that's for power.
Then there is also a USB connector. I assume that's for power and maybe RGB.
Then there is an RGB header which I have no use for.
Then I just put the case fans on the fan hub.
