(VGA RAM Heatsink Attachment
Attachment on Socket Guide
Nut on Base Assembly
Application on Front Heatsink
1. VGA RAM Heatsink Attachment
Remove the Film from the Thermal Tapes on the bottom of
the RAM Heatsinks (ZM-RHS1) and attach the Heatsinks on
the VGA RAM.
Note 1) If Thermal Grease or other residue remains on the RAM,
the Thermal Tapes will not stick. Clean the surface of the
RAM with acetone or alcohol before attaching.
Note 2) The bonding strength of the Thermal Tapes reaches
90% after 24 hours of curing. Do not exert excessive
force on the RAM Heatsinks during this period.
Note 3) Thermal Tapes are not reusable because they lose
adhesiveness after their initial attachment. Purchase
new Thermal Tapes if the RAM Heatsinks need to be
reattached.
2. Thermal Grease Application on VGA Chipset
Clean the contact surface of the VGA Chipset completely. Apply
Thermal Grease on the VGA Chipset that makes contact with
the base of the VGA Cooler.
3. Socket Selection & Nipple Installation on the
Socket Guide
Check the hole locations compatible with Socket A or Socket B
and choose a socket accordingly. Install the Nipples to anti-
clockwise on the Socket Guide.
Please check the table below to identify the correct Nipple
Installation Holes for specific models of VGA cards.
