So i have a liquid cooler on my a520m-hdled. there are two wires coming out of the top, one is plugged into cpu_fan1. and the other was plugged into something before i installed a new psu. i cant find another spot on my mobo for the second connector, where does it go?

What AIO do you have, could you take a picture of the wire you can't find out where it goes?

What Motherboard do you have? Does it have water pump header? What brand is your AIO? You need to provide more information if you want help.

My motherboard is an a520m-hdv, my AIO is from a prebuilt pc from Apex gaming Pcs and it doesn’t have a water pump header (as far as i know)

Its fine to not know what the AIO is, its all mainly Asetek-based so the technical part is similar afterall. But knowing what header it looks like atleast would help us on what it is. Also where the cable comes out of in the AIO, is it around the fans or on the block that leads to the CPU?

Photograph your PC and the unplugged connector.

I've been using computers since around 1978, started learning programming in 1980 on Apple IIs, started learning about hardware in 1990, ran a BBS from 1990-95, built my first Windows PC around 2000, taught myself malware removal starting in 2005 (also learned on Bleeping Computer), learned web dev starting in 2017, and I think I can fill a thimble with all that knowledge. 😉 I'm not an expert, which is why I keep investigating the answers that others give to try and improve my knowledge, so feel free to double-check the advice I give.
