AIO Pump Speed? Always set to 100% or not? Help!

I just finished swapping my CPU cooler for the Corsair H110 and I've encountered a problem.

 

My motherboard controls the fan speeds according to system temp.. That is great and all since it stays nice and quiet when I'm not doing anything demanding.

 

The problem is the pump is also plugged into one of these and I'm trying to figure out how many RPMs for the fan controller should it be set at? or at least what is the suggested operating range.

 

This RPMs is for the pump not the 2 fans. I have the ability to set it to a certain speed (RPM Mode) or make it change as well according to the temp (Smart Mode)

 

My mobo says the pump operating speed can be set to anywhere from 600 RPM to 1550 RPM in "RPM Mode".

 

If I ran it at 100% (1550 RPM) all the time would that cause any functionality problems with the pump?

 

Pump supposed to be constant RPM or not? Fans should respond to temperature changes, not the pump?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I just leave it at w/e the hell it runs at, I don't think the RPM of the pump even matters.

Yes it does.. if the fluid inside in AIO waterloop circulate faster, I believe you get better temperature.

Yes, leave the pump pegged at 100%. You can raise or lower the fan speeds as you see fit, but you want a constant full pressure flow.

No, I mean't not how fast it spun, I mean't if it doesn't bother you, just leave it as it is.

It bother me, if i can set my pump speed to a lower RPM and it doesn't matter, i will do, because my pump will last longer.
