Z800
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a Z800 which I upgraded with 2x  Xeon X5680's, at the moment I have Z400 performance cpu coolers as  Z800 performance coolers are not available at a realistic price in the UK ( I've seen one advertised at 300gbp) I have now bought, at great expense, a liquid cooling assembly, the problem is that I don't have the appropriate wiring harness which I think is part No 614972-001. Can anyone help with the pinout either of this part or a compatible part so that I can make up  my own cable?

Whilst the Z400 heatsinks keep the machine cool, their size means that I can't refit the memory cooling fans so I have to sit in front of the machine waiting  to press F1 when it starts complaining which is a bit of a pain during windows interminable updates.

I have a pair of Z400 systems.  One has the original fan.  The other, an eVga "closed" liquid cooler.  I had to set jumpers in two places to avoid having to press F1 when booting.   The case is ATX with standard power supply with the known Z400 cable mod.

 

I would go with a quality cooling system.  I assume you are still using the original case? 

This just happened to me a few days ago. Pair x5675 on really cheap motherboard using for BOINC and GRC mining.  I had been adding fluid for a week thinking it was evaporating and didnt examine the motherboard closely.
