STEP 1
After attaching the water block, a few more thermal pads need to be
placed on backplate to cover all the necessary components.
Pay attention not to use too much force when pressing
the block down to the PCB since chip dies are prone
to cracking.
Before attaching the PCB to the Water Block, make sure
all the Thermal Pads are placed correctly!
