CUTTING AND PLACING THERMAL PADS STEP 1 Thermal Pad F – 1.0 mm (120 x 16 mm) The GPU water block comes with thermal pads that have to be cut into smaller pieces to cover all the VRM components, such as COILs, MOSFETs, and drivers.
APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND STEP 1 Apply the enclosed thermal grease (thermal compound) on the GPU heat spreader – IHS – as shown in the image. The layer of the thermal compound must be thin and even over the entire surface of the IHS.

STEP 2 ACTIVE BACKPLATE Insert two (2) O-rings (14 x 1 mm) into slots on the cold plate. Then carefully place the active backplate on standoffs as shown in the image. While putting the active backplate on the PCB, make sure the O-rings stay in the slots.
FITTINGS AND TUBING STEP 1 Screw in two (2) G1/4 threaded male fittings. Attach the liquid cooling tubes and connect the water block to the cooling loop. Do not forget to plug the remaining two openings using EK- PLUG G1/4 the enclosed EK-Plug G1/4 or its equivalent.
CONNECTING THE D-RGB LED STRIP STEP 1 Plug the 3-pin connector of the distribution plate D-RGB LED light to the D-RGB HEADER on the motherboard. The LED will work if the pin layout on the header is as follows: +5V, Digital, Empty, Ground.
