Is there a recommended place to plug in a 2-pin temperature sensor to a B650e Taichi Lite?

I recently build a completely new computer with a ASRock B650e Taichi Lite Motherboard and a customer water-cooling loop. Every thing seems to be in working order. The system has posted, no water leaks, I've installed windows, all parts are detected, and thermals look good.

The water pump came with a 2-pin water temperature sensor and I just can't seem to figure out where I'm supposed to connect it to the motherboard. I looked at every page of the user manual and I don't see mention of any headers for use with a 2-pin connection (other than the clear CMOS jumper, which didn't seem like a good idea).

I'd really like to control my radiator fans based off water temperature. Did I miss something? Can I plug the 2-pin connector into a fan header? Is there a cheap adapter I can find somewhere?

What water pump are you using?

I have a Corsair XD5 water pump, which comes with a G1/4 thread water temperature sensor. I'm also using a Corsair PWM repeater that came with the 5000D airflow to control ten Arctic P12 PWM fans.

The pump and fans appear to be fully up and running. I can control pump/fan speeds using the CPU temp, but I'd much rather use water temp.

Looking at Corsair's installation guide video for your pump/res combo it looks like
it requires Corsair's "Commander Pro" module to be used. I have not seen any boards,
outside of specialty (workstation/server) boards, that support external temp sensors.

It seems Corsair includes the sensor for use with their own cases that come with
the Commander Pro included or, if you are not using a case with it included, require
you to buy one.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news
