Running reservoir without diagnostic cable?

Petoovee

Hello, does anyone know if I void my warranty on the EK-RES X3 if I run the computer without connecting the reservoir diagnostic cable?

Looks a looooot less like a diagnostic cable and more like an RGB cable. And last I checked, you aren't forced to use RGB either, so I'd be pretty safe in saying you'd be fine.

that would be the RGB cable, im not sure what kind of diagnostics you could pull off that

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

It's just a RGB cable, not a low fluid sensor. Nothing to worry about if you're not into RGB (and if not, why didn't you just save $10-odd and get the non-RGB version?).

After the RGreatB War, we will be forces to have RGB on every individually sold device.
