4. Ntọala na nwụnye

Proper installation is crucial for the performance and longevity of your power supply. Always ensure your system is powered off and unplugged from the wall outlet before installation.

4.1 Nchekwa nchekwa

• Disconnect the AC power cord from the wall outlet before handling the PSU or any internal components.
• Ensure proper grounding to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD).
• Emeghela PSU casing. Akwa voltages are present inside, even when unplugged.

4.2 Nwụnye anụ ahụ

1. Mount the PSU into the designated power supply bay in your computer case. Ensure the fan is facing the correct direction for optimal airflow (usually facing down if there's a bottom vent, or up if it's a top-mounted PSU).

• Motherboard Power: Jikọọ eriri ATX 24-pin na motherboard gị.
• Ike CPU: Connect the 4+4-pin EPS/ATX12V cable(s) to your motherboard's CPU power connector(s).
• PCIe Power (Graphics Cards): For modern graphics cards requiring a 12V-2x6 connector, use the dedicated cable. Ensure the connector is fully seated. For other graphics cards, use the 6+2-pin PCIe cables.

5.2 iCool Intelligent Fan Control

The ASRock Steel Legend SL-850G features an iCool switch on the rear panel. This switch controls the fan's operation mode:

• iCool ON: The fan will remain off at low to medium loads for silent operation. It will activate automatically when the load or temperature increases.
• iCool OFF: The fan will operate continuously, regardless of the load or temperature. This provides maximum cooling but may result in higher noise levels.

Choose the mode that best suits your preference for noise and cooling performance.

6. Nlekọta

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your power supply.

• Nhicha: Periodically clean the exterior of the PSU and its fan grille to prevent dust buildup. Use compressed air to gently clear dust from the fan blades and heatsinks. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
• Njikwa USB: Ensure cables are neatly routed and do not obstruct airflow within the case.
• gburugburu: Operate the PSU in a well-ventilated area, away from excessive heat, humidity, and direct sunlight.

  • Ensure all modular cables, especially the 12V-2x6 PCIe cable, are fully seated and properly connected.
  • Check for any loose connections to the motherboard, CPU, or graphics card.
  • Verify that your system's power requirements do not exceed the PSU's 850W capacity.
• Fan Not Spinning (iCool ON):
  • If iCool mode is ON, the fan may not spin at low loads. This is normal operation.
  • If the fan does not spin even under load, try switching iCool mode OFF to force continuous fan operation. If it still doesn't spin, contact support.
• Mkpọtụ na-adịghị ahụkebe:
  • Ensure no cables are obstructing the fan.
  • If the noise persists and is not related to fan operation, contact support.
