2. i was about to connect the Kraken x62 to the ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-F gaming motherboard, but there are conflicting installation instructions:
The Kraken x62 installation manual states:
The two fans should be connected to the Kraken cable and the Kraken itself should be connected to the CPU fan connector on the motherboard.
The motherboard instructions say:
AIO water cooling should be connected to the AIO pump connector and the two fans to the two CPU fan connectors on the motherboard.
Which type of wiring is correct now?

Hello
I installed it as described for the Kraken. This way you can control them with the (sometimes quite buggy) software from NZXT. If you connect them as described for the mainboard, they are controlled by the mainboard, which only knows how warm the CPU is, but not how warm the liquid is.
