Where do I connect the 3-pin DC Pump and 4-pin PWM Fan cables from the Kraken Core?

Both of these cables will need to be connected to fan headers on the motherboard.  It is not recommended to plug the 3-pin DC Pump cable to a controller.

3-pin DC Pump Cable

• If your motherboard has an AIO_PUMP, CPU_OPT, or equivalent header it is recommended to plug the 3-pin DC Pump cable to one of these ports.
• If your motherboard does not feature one of the above listed headers, connect the 3-pin DC Pump cable to CPU_FAN.

4-pin PWM Fan Cable

• If your 3-pin DC Pump Cable is not connected to CPU_FAN, it is recommended to plug the 4-pin PWM Fan cable to CPU_FAN.
• If your 3-pin DC Pump Cable is connected to CPU_FAN, connect the 4-pin PWM Fan Cable to an available SYS_FAN or equivalent header.
