You  also want to go into the bios and make sure your pump is set to full speed off the CPU_FAN header.    The fans can fluctuate based on heat, but the pump should be 100% all the time.

my pump rgb went out and the fans above my radiator are throwing off normal air. i think the pump is gone

Hi everyone, the Pump was fine. 

It is okay to connect it into AIO header on motherboard and so is the commander core to xt. 

The main thing that helped with the pump and rgb of the pump was the faulty weak connector (24pin) that connects into commander core. 
Due to it being flimsy, i never pushed it completely into the thing. At first when i did it, it felt a bit *crunchy*. 

I was about to give up but then i was like, screw it all, and pushed it all the way in. 

And to my surprise, it worked! 

The rgb is back and so is the temperature control. Now my temp is 22 degree in bios instead of the 84 degree. 

Thankyou all for suggestions and help!

nah sata is a different cable, theres another cable that goes from pump into the commander core. i think its a 24pin connector.
