Good day everyone,

I've transplanted my old system from an MSI P67A-G43 and i5-2500K setup to a 170i Pro Gaming inside a Thermaltake Core v1 case.

My question is which fan headers do I (or should I) use with my Corsair H80i cooler for the CPU?

There are 2 leads I need to hook up, both are 3 pin. The motherboard has CPU, CHASSIS_1 and CHASSIS_2. Are any preferred, or does it not really matter?

I ran a 3D Mark test and the fan hooked up to the radiator never went above 880RPM... got CPU super hot, to 94C.

EDIT: I actually have the H90 (doesn't really matter).

on the CPU header since it is a CPU cooler.

Thanks, I'm all set.

I reapplied thermal paste after cleaning it up and am about -20C from my highs of 90C+.
