My name is Carlos De Bernard from Panama. Hello OC3d.net users. I am finish a build now. I have questions big ones. I hope that i can get sort on some tips from you guys. i have a Asus Maximus VIII hero with a DeepCool Captain 360. Where i connect the pump (3 pin). After reading the manual and checking some websites, on page 3-42 Pump on DC mode for 3 pin chassis fan. My fans have PWM with a spitter. The fans are supposed to be plug to the CPU fan (12v 1amp MAX) the 3 fans are less like 10v total and does not get news the 1amp so I am goo there. The pump is breaking my balls. 3 pin plugs does works since the ground pin is not the same. Any help here is needed.

Hello, what you need is a 3pin fan connector to molex (or sata power) connector like this
Usually the ROG Boards have 4-Pin Connector that can be switched to 3-Pin/DC Mode, at least that is what the Asus Webiste says, you only have to change that in the Bios. The Hero should have 3 4-Pins near the Socket, two CPU_Fan and one specially dedicated for the Pump, everone of the should be usuable with 3-Pin tough.
