Is it okay to plug my AIO pump into the CPU_FAN header?

Hey everyone! I just finished building my PC last night. I installed a Corsair Nautilus 360 RS ARGB AIO cooler and I'm using an Aorus B850 Elite WiFi 7 motherboard. I connected the cable from the AIO pump to the CPU_FAN header because the pump header is located at the bottom of the motherboard and I didn't have a long enough cable to reach it. The radiator fans are plugged into the CPU_OPT header. Is this setup alright? Thanks for your help!

Yeah, that setup works! The pump connector is the same type as the CPU_FAN, so it should be fine. Just remember that the RPM readings for your CPU fan will show up under the CPU_OPT parameter in the BIOS.

So they'll show the same speed, right? I was planning to set the CPU_FAN speed to max in BIOS to keep the pump running at full speed.
