Hooted a 4pin fan extension cable from taobao.
Route my bottom swifttech fan hub up to my cpu fan header 2.
The bios for msi sys fan header min fan speed is 50% but the fan is spinning full. Damn noisy. 4 fans spinning at full.
2 high performance sp120 and 2 af140L

Let's see if it works, if not need to replace the front intake fans to 120mm pwm high performance fans.

I think need download aida64 to test my system. I think my ram is quite chui. Oc to 1866 but kinda unstable.

Idle cpu temp 30-38
Max load temp not crossing 70 most of the time. Shall try.

Haven't got chance to load the gpu.
Lol lazy to oc. Just gonna go with stock. Unless have extra time on hand. Nvidia block the voltage control. :(

For MSI boards even X99, for some reason apart from the CPU fan header all the other headers are NOT PWM.

I got cheated again -_-

Ya haha but the 4pin extension I got to link up to cpu fan header. It works. Haha now it runs silently with settings.
The cable is damn well done. From taobao!
Sleeved and solid sia.

Paid less than $5 for 50 cm.
My rig is completed! Shall find time to take a photo shoot!

Now running aida64 extreme. Test stability and temps.
If it doesn't go over 70 I am happy and it's gonna stay the same for the next 2 years Haha
Till caselabs and more rigid tubing. Haha

Good choice that I skipped flexible tubing Haha
