So I just finished routing everything for my first custom loop. Never done water cooling before. I have paper towels stuffed around key points, all lines are connected, hard drives and GPU power disconnected. I'm wondering if I have something wrong though - I plugged the PSU into the wall, and have a jumper that I plugged in. The pump is a Swiftech Apogee Drive II, which has 2 wires coming off it - one fan wire, one power. I plugged the fan wire into the CPU fan on the motherboard, and the power into the PSU connector. The 8 pin motherboard power cable is plugged into the PSU, and I have a jumper for the 24-pin. The 24-pin is plugged into the PSU but NOT the motherboard.
I THINK everything should be correct, but when I turn the PSU on and plug in the jumper, the PSU makes a clicking noise once and that's it. Pump doesn't come on.
Help?
PSU is a Corsair SF600.
Motherboard is ASRock Z270 Fatal1ty Gaming ITX
Pump is a Swiftech Apogee Drive II purchased directly from Swiftech, not a 3rd party seller.
Cables are OEM cables that came with the PSU.
Troubleshooting steps taken so far -
- checked connections to PSU (cables plugged in all the way). Everything is in as far as it'll go and the little clips are clicked locked so should be good
- tried other fan connections on motherboard (case fan, CPU fan, optional pump)
