EXPANSION NOTE ABOUT THE H220X
The bleed screw had to be made out of a fairly soft material to prevent damage to the acrylic window. This screw should be unscrewed a little to allow for air to bleed out when the kit is being refilled after expansion. Due to the material though users need to be very careful and treat the screw delicately when unscrewing it and screwing it back in. Let me know if there will be any issue to adding this in the OP for the H220-X.

NOTICE: It is HIGHLY recommended that you use the included PWM splitter to power your pump, by plugging the pump into channel one and hooking up both the molex/SATA plug and the PWM fan header, EVEN IF the only device you plan to modulate via PWM is the pump itself. More than just an accessory, the splitter is a fail-safe, guaranteeing that the pump always receives the necessary 12v, regardless of fan header settings, as anything less can and will, in an unknown amount of time, damage the pump. Furthermore, it is recommended that you do the same for any other PWM devices you plan to run as well, so that they too receive the necessary 12v constant straight from the PSU. If you cannot modulate the speed of the devices plugged in, in this fashion, then it's either a fan header, motherboard, or BIOS setting issue, or in rare case, the splitter itself.

Known Motherboard incompatibility issues
-Asus Crosshair V Formula-Z AMD 990FX Motherboard - Interference with VR Heatsinks I've been told this can be remedied by sliding the block under the heatsink.
-ASRock Z77E-ITX LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Mini ITX Intel Motherboard - Interference with RAM & VGA slots
-ASUS Z9PE-D8 WS Dual LGA 2011 Intel C602 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 SSI EEB Intel Motherboard - Interference with Ram slots closest to CPU sockets - Can only use outer RAM slots.

BACKPLATE INSTALLATION HELP
Here's what I found to be the easiest method: BEFORE you remove the plastic cover on the copper and put the TIM on, install the cooler so that the stickies on the backplate seat to the motherboard, then remove the H220 and plastic and install as normal. Alternatively, if you have a backplate that fits your mobo from a previous cooler, test it to see if the H220 screws into it, which 95% of the time it will. If it does, you can use it if you prefer (E.G. Corsair Hxx backplates).

IMPORTANT SERVICE ANOUNCEMENT
"Here at Swiftech what we've been able to determine is that most of the noise that comes from the pump is due to an air bubble getting trapped in it. Here are the steps to remove this air bubble.
First, remove your radiator from your case and gently shake it. You'll need to hold it above the pump in order to do this properly. You'll also want your pump running while you're doing this.
Next, gently tilt your case from side to side and from back to front to help dislodge any remaining air bubbles. You may need to do this for a few minutes to get your pump to quiet down.
If the previous step was still not successful you may need to gently squeeze the tubing above the fittings on either side of your pump. Do this very gently so that you don't end up putting unnecessary pressure on your barb fitting elbows. This should finally dislodge any remaining air bubbles trapped in your pump.
These procedures can take several minutes to almost half an hour or more before your pump will push out the stubborn air bubble and quiet down. Once this has occurred you can then just open the fill port cap on your radiator and top off your radiator with a little distilled water."
