Critical pre-installation setup – MUST READ
The Obsidian water-block features 4 adjustable standoffs that allow installation with either 8800 (G92)
or 9800 GTX series of graphics cards.
Swiftech does not tighten the standoffs, and they are in no particular pre-set position from the factory.
So you must position the standoffs to fit your particular card model. Each standoff only has two correct
positions: all the way in one direction or all the way in the opposite direction. Lightly unscrew the
standoff to allow it to travel in its groove, then push it one way or the other as shown below, and finally
fasten it in position with a 3/16 socket or long nose pliers. The following diagram shows the correct
standoff positions for each card model.
