3. Setup and Installation

This section outlines the general steps for installing the liquid cooler. Refer to the detailed installation guide provided in the product packaging for specific instructions for your CPU socket type.

3.1 Prepare the Motherboard

• Install the appropriate backplate (for Intel) or retention clips (for AMD) onto your motherboard.
• Secure the standoffs for your CPU socket type.

3.2 Apply Thermal Paste

• Clean the CPU surface thoroughly.
• Apply a small amount of thermal paste (e.g., a pea-sized dot) to the center of the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).

3.3 Mount the Pump

• Align the pump head with the mounting holes on the motherboard.
• Gently press the pump onto the CPU, ensuring even contact.
• Secure the pump with the provided thumb screws or nuts, tightening them in a diagonal pattern until snug. Do not overtighten.

3.4 Install the Radiator and Fans

• Mount the radiator to an available fan mounting location in your PC case (e.g., top, front, or side). Ensure adequate clearance.
• The three 120mm fans are typically pre-installed on the radiator. Ensure their airflow direction is optimal for your case's cooling configuration.

3.5 Connect Cables

• Connect the pump's 3-pin or 4-pin power cable to the CPU_FAN or AIO_PUMP header on your motherboard.
• Connect the fan power cable (daisy-chained from the radiator fans) to a SYS_FAN or CHA_FAN header on your motherboard.
• Connect the USB 2.0 header cable from the pump to an available USB 2.0 header on your motherboard. This is required for LCD display functionality and software control.
• Connect the ARGB cable from the pump to a 5V 3-pin ARGB header on your motherboard for lighting synchronization, if desired.
