• Cable Management: Ensure all cables are properly routed and secured to prevent interference with fan blades or other components.
• Thermal Paste: While the cooler comes with pre-applied thermal paste, if you ever need to remount the cold plate, ensure to clean off old thermal paste and apply a new layer for best performance.

7. Troubleshooting

• No Power/Fans Not Spinning: Double-check all power connections, especially the 4-pin PWM connector for the pump and fans, and the SATA power cable for the LCD. Ensure they are securely seated.
• LCD Screen Not Displaying: Verify the Type-C USB cable connection to both the cold head and the motherboard's USB 9-pin header. Ensure the TRCC software is installed and running.
• High CPU Temperatures: Confirm that the cold plate is making proper contact with the CPU. Re-check mounting pressure and thermal paste application. Ensure fans are spinning correctly and radiator fins are not obstructed by dust.
• ARGB Lighting Issues: Check the 3-pin +5VARGB connection to the motherboard. Ensure your motherboard's RGB software is correctly configured and compatible with the cooler's ARGB.
• Pump Noise: Some pump noise is normal, but excessive noise might indicate air bubbles. Gently tilt your PC case to help dislodge any trapped air bubbles. Ensure the pump is running at an appropriate speed via motherboard settings.
