I'm building my pc I'm confused as where should I connect the Aio. So the kraken x62 has a fan splitter that connect the 2140mm fans into the aio. The aio has a 3 pin connector I'm wondering where should I connect it to the Cpu_opt or the aio_pump connector. Should I use the fan splitter that poweres the fans thrue the aio or should I connect the fans directly to the Motherboard????

the 3 pin should be connected to the AIO Pump header. You can use the fan splitter that way you can just tune one fan profile instead of multiples for the fans.

X62 gets its power from the SATA connecter, and speed control from USB. The 3 pin header just reports speed to the mobo. X52 however is powered by the 3 pin. I am running both in series in my main rig.
