Go to solution Solved by TacticlTwinkie,

on my h100i (same pump/block) I dont have it plugged into a fan header. It runs just fine. I also have the fans running off the motherboard. Never bothered with the corsair link software.

Hey Guys,

 

I have a h80i in my new rig and even my Noctua fans rattle when I use the included y cable and try to control the fan speed from corsair link. Thats why I use my Mb headers for the fans. My Mb only has 4 fan headers and I'd like to know If the fan header currently linked to the h80i is needed for the pump or if I can remove it safely and use it for an other fan.

 

thanks in advance,

fox

The fan header plugged into the H80i is only for pump RPM. It is fine to use it but the BIOS and Windows might freak out cos the CPU_FAN isn't spinning.

H80i but same sorta thing :P

SATA power connector is what i have connected to mine. MB fan control is better for me compared to the Corsair Link fan control.
