Connect Corsair H100i WITHOUT Link?

Hey Guys,

I want to connect my Corsair H100i without the Corsair Link connections on the pump. But on my Z87 Sabertooth motherboard there are only 2 CPU fan connections. I thought that i have to connect the pump header to the primary and the 2 radiator fans with a y-adapter cable to the second one. I want to manage all fans with the Asus 4 way optimization. Would that work?

1) pump header to cpu fan, fans plugged into pump via y cable. - can only manage fan speeds via corsair

2) pump header to cpu fan, fans via y cable to cpu fan2. - you'll be able to manage the fan speeds via asus software
