Hi guys i have the swiftech h240-x rad. this rad comes with the sata cable for power and another cable with 2 head-connectors like sata cables do for hdd. 1 head-comnector says "connect to pump" so pretty straight forward and the other extra its a 2pin connector. My mobo bios says any 4pin connector is PWM and whatever is no 4pin connector is DC. And also my mobo has a cpu-fan-connetor and an optional-fan-connector. My question is, does this 2pin cable need to be conneted to the cpu-fan header or to the optional-fan-header? Do the rad fans have to connected to the cpu-header? and do only the fans have to be pwm and no the pump? THANK YOU im really having a hard time with this. And is it best to set the cpu temp when its on full load or idle. And im thinking to buy a Y 4pin cable in case i have to connect my rads fans to the cpu header together.

The pump Tac, that 2 pin off the pump, should be plugged into the CPU fan header. This is so the Mobo has a reading of the pumps RPMs. The fans can be plugged into any power source, any fan headers on the Mobo would do. This is just to control fans speeds and power on the fans, so use whatever you like, I.E. fan controller, 4 pin to molex, Mobo headers, Y cable, whatever.
