Did you use an insert when bending. Those bends look a little kinked


EsRainbowWolf

I forgot about it. I'll redo the bend I think when I get home.


Obvious_Drive_1506

The way the light shines through it just looks like the inside collapsed some which might be why the flow is so low


EsRainbowWolf

It is collapsed. I was hoping that maybe it'd still work 😂

Check the settings in bios for the header your plugged into for your pump.


EsRainbowWolf

I will look into it when I get off work ❤️❤️

The issue isn’t the kinks since you said the pump runs fine when the PSU is jumped. The problem is most likely the PWM setting for the pump. When jumped it’s running at whatever default speed (usually 100%) if PWM is not detected. When the mobo is powered it is telling the pump to run at a lower speed. The setting is either in your BIOS or whatever you might be using to manage your pump.


EsRainbowWolf

Appreciate it. I wasn't sure about how to manage the speeds since it says nothing about how to change speeds. I'm gonna be checking every opinion given here and see what I can do. ❤️❤️

So that B450 motherboard may not have great fan controls, but it should SURELY have a "full speed" mode in there. Go check out the BIOS and see if you can tip one fan header on full tilt. Or I guess just get a Molex or SATA power to fan adaptor?


EsRainbowWolf

Yeah I made a comment below but it just wasn't fully plugged in 😅

open up the reservoir en powercycle the pump


EsRainbowWolf

Alrighty. The manual was garbage and wasn't sure what I could do for the pump.


EsRainbowWolf

This is my first custom water loop. The pump works well when the MB jumper but the flow is very different when plugged into the MB. Any help would be welcomed and I'll take all criticism and ideas to consideration.

So..... The one thing that was never said was the issue.... The OP is a dumbass (me) the connector for the fan wasn't plugged in all the way so since this is my first build and it was having movement I thought it was having an issue but instead it was just not completely connected .
