Intel: LGA 1851/1700/1200/1150/1151/1155

The following parts are needed for this:
1x Dark Rock Pro 5 CPU cooler (1), 1x Silent Wings 135mm fan (2), 1x Silent Wings 4 120mm fan (3), 1x Intel backplate (4), 2x Intel mounting brackets (5), 4x Intel spacer nut A (7), 4x mounting bracket fastening screws (9), 4x Intel backplate screws (10), 4x O-rings (12), 1x thermal paste (13), 1x cross-tip screwdriver (14)

Mounting the backplate
Position the Intel backplate screws in the notches situated on the rear side of the Intel backplate. Pay attention doing so to align with the holes drilled for each socket.
For fixing the backplate screws onto the Intel backplate use the O-rings. Once assembly of the Intel backplate for the respective Intel socket has been completed, position it under the motherboard. In so doing make sure that the Intel backplate screws are precisely located within the motherboard holes.

Installation of the mounting brackets
Screw the Intel spacer nut A onto the previously positioned Intel backplate. Then position the Intel mounting brackets over the Intel spacer nut A and affix these with the mounting bracket fastening screws. You can use the cross-tip screwdriver for this.

Mounting the CPU cooler
First peel off the protective film from the underside of the cooler. Apply thermal paste on the CPU surface. The tube contains enough for about 1 or 2 applications.

The thermal paste supplied should not be swallowed. If any is swallowed, drink lots of water and urgently seek the advice of a doctor. Store it beyond the reach of children. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Place the cooler onto the CPU unit. Then screw the mounting bridge alter-nately tight. You can use the cross-tip screwdriver for this.

Center the Silent Wings 135mm fan from above. Then slide it into the recess between the heatsinks and press it firmly. Connect both fans via the Y-cable. You can remove the fan clips of the Silent Wings 4 120mm and adjust the height.

warning Pull off the top cover to remove the Silent Wings 135mm fan. Separate both fans from each other by pulling off the Y-cable. Press the handles of the fan clips from the Silent Wings 4 120mm to remove it.

Dark Rock Pro 5 has a Quiet (Q) and a Performance (P) mode. The mode affects the maximum fan speeds and the operating noise. To change modes, first remove the magnetic top cover. Move the switch to switch between the modes.

AMD: AM5/AM4

The following parts are needed for this:
1x Dark Rock Pro 5 CPU cooler (1), 1x Silent Wings 135mm fan (2), 1x Silent Wings 4 120mm fan (3), 2x short AMD mounting brackets (6), 4x AMD spacer nuts (8), 4x AMD backplate screws (11), 1x thermal paste (13), 1x cross-tip screwdriver (14)

Assembly of the cooler mounting frame
Prior to mounting the cooler, please detach both plastic holders of the AMD retention module. The factory-mounted backplate on the rear side of the motherboard is required for further installation of the cooler.

Place the four AMD spacer nuts onto the backplate bolts protruding through the front side and affix short AMD mounting brackets with the AMD backplate screws.
