So as for my other post, i got my Kraken X61 installed now (thanks)

But i need to plug in the 3 Pin connector into the "4 pin CPU_PWR".

After looking on the board itself and the manual theres nothing
which mentions a 4 Pin CPU_PWR slow..

Motherboard = Maximus VII Gene

There is now a spare "CPU_Fan1 & CPU_OPT" because the 2 fans pins for into the
Krakens Pump cables.

WHERE IS THIS DAMN 4 PIN CPU_PWR CONNECTOR?!?!? Thanks.

Are you talking about fan headers or the actual power delivery lead from the PSU?

i assume its the fan headers. everything that was built before has been plugged back in...but there is a 3 pin connection (looks similar to the fan connectors) but it says it should be plugged into a "CPU_PWR" ..my motherboard doesnt have one of these..


Chasis Fans are both plugged in..
Kraken x61 Fans are both plugged in..

Wheres my rep

These are all the 4 pins on your mobo, connect the the cables of the cpu block to the one on the top. then the fans can connect to any of the others

Your motherboard should have a header just above the top VRM labbled CPU_FAN plug it into that.

CPU_FAN is CPU_PWR

I'm confused. Is this for the X61? It should be plugged in to either CPU_FAN1, or if that doesn't work, try CPU_OPT
