Just wondering what people do normally. Since the pump(mcp655) has a 4 pin molex. Do you plug it directly into power supply and when you log off computer(shutdown) then hit the power supply switch to shut off. Or do you wire it up inline from ps so when you hit power button on case it cuts on with pc???

I'm thinking directly into ps. Didnt know, wanted to ask. Yes I'm waiting on the FEDEX guy to get here with all my stuff today. But I have to work tonight ugghhhh!!!!! So tomorrow when I get home its time to drown the cpu and gpu!! WEEE!!!

You plug it in directly into you power supply unit, i.e im going to have it connected via molex to my corsair ax 850.... so when your pc is on so is the pump and when you switch it off it will go off with everything else

Since this was my first watercooling experience, I learned a few things. Pump doesnt run till you hit the power button and then the power supply kicks on, Rofl <<<<NOOB. So yeah directly with molex to power supply or inline with another molex plug. Doesnt matter. Also learned that if you dont have anything plugged into cpu fan header, the motherboard yells at you. Solved that problem in bios. Thanks for all the help guys.
