Only had mine since Tuesday but so far so good. Stress tested my cpu for about an hour. Honestly I can't hear the pump even at full speed. People need to realize that forums generally consist of people having trouble with their products.

Wow, I'm impressed by this cooler. I have a i7 930 @ 4.2ghz and running a stress test right now. Hasn't broke 57c. Been running for 30 mins so far.

I ordered 2 helix 120mm non PWM fans yesterday. I think I'm gonna return them and order the PWM versions. I wasn't using the PWM splitter until I was told it's bad to use PWM fans on a fan controller. In my bios under "PC Health...

It should be ok to run the cpu block/pump off the cpu header. The fans should be hooked up to PWM 4 pin connector thoughQuote:Originally Posted by Avonosac You are voltage regulating those fans. This is a bad idea, you will burn...

Quote:Originally Posted by BramSLI1 The main reason this splitter was included is because most motherboards don't have very many PWM headers. So with our splitter you're getting extra headers to control your PWM devices. We...

Quote:Originally Posted by Skullwipe The main reason it comes with a PWM splitter is to ensure the fans and pump receive enough wattage and amperage. The fan headers can only supply so much, the splitter allows you to use a molex...

Quote:Originally Posted by Skullwipe I think you mean PWM. What model motherboard do you have? Check your manual, it should have a section on fan headers. It looks like the Z77 boards only have PWM control on the CPU fan header....
