So I got this cooler, mounted it on my mobo but now idk where the cables go. I'm assuming the 3-pin one goes on my mobo where CPU fan is (even though its 4 pins, i matched up the ground pin with the ground on the mobo). But theres another 2 pin cable where does that go? If my mobo matters, its the ASUS rampage formula

The 2 pin goes to the fan controller that came with the Tuniq. Then the controller goes to the PCI slot so the knob is in the back where it can be reached for adjustments

Yeah, if you didn't put enough thermal paste, your temps will be high. But most people put too much instead of too little thermal goo.

Yup, I cuncur on that. I'll have to confess I've been known to do that from time to time
it'll depend on your ambient temp but 50c is a little high at idle. my e8400 is 32c idle and 50c under load.
