I need to clean my lop with a solution I got with my tubing, I want to run the loop without any of the blocks on their components and without the power supply connected to the motherboard, I'm aware that I have to bridge the green wire with any black wire on the power cable for the motherboard, however I'm really afraid it's going to go boom, also the paper clip I'm using to bridge has a silver coat of paint on it, will this light up in flames?

If you're afraid that you're going to do it incorrectly, buy one of this, but I don't think anything is going to go wrong.

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Forget about the bad memories of the past, take the good ones along with you through the present, and look forwards to the good things that will come in the future.

There's not really any voltage going through the green wire, or at least not enough to ignite anything like that. It's specifically a "power supply turn on" wire. If the paperclip is conductive, it'll work.
