So doing a tower build mostly to try and achieve something quieter than what a rack server would offer, didn’t think about CPU coolers until everything arrived so went to local Best buy, kinda digging the dual water cooler aesthetic. Waiting on RAM to arrive still but also have a question.

Currently I have the CPU header split for the radiator fan and pump, is that ok or should I split the system fans with the pump. I guess I could also get a molex pump controller but don’t think I need one.

    I’m confused. You built this from the start with the intention of making it quiet, but didn’t think about the CPU cooler until you ordered everything else? Isn’t the CPU cooler typically the primary noisemaker? The choice for water cooling sounds almost made for you already if the whole point is silence.
