INSTALLING THE WATER BLOCK

M2.5 x 4 AX1 SCREW
For this Step, you will need:
STEP 1

PLACING THE BLOCK ON THE GRAPHICS CARD

This procedure is the same for all full-cover water blocks.
STEP 1
Carefully position the water block with preinstalled standoffs on
the graphics card. During this process, make sure you have aligned
mounting holes of the PCB with holes of the water block (same
applies to other tops).
PVC WASHER
STEP 2

ATTACHING THE BLOCK TO THE GRAPHICS CARD

Use ten (10) M2.5 X 4 AX1 screws and M2.5 PVC washers. Tighten the
screws evenly using the Phillips head screwdriver. EK recommends
you start tightening the screws around the GPU core first and then
continuing outward to prevent the damage to the GPU. Always use a
plastic washer under each screw!
