All disclosures, notices and warranty conditions are being written on EKWB web page. Please check terms of use. Revision 2.0 Published on Novembert 3rd 2017

This product is intended for installation only by expert users. Please consult with a qualified technician for installation. Improper installation may result in damage to your equipment. EK Water Blocks assumes no

liability whatsoever, expressed or implied, for the use of these products, nor their installation. The following instructions are subject to change without notice. Please visit our web site at www.ekwb.com for updates.

Before installation of this product please read important notice, disclosure and warranty conditions printed on the back of the box.

Before you start using this product please follow these basic guidelines:

1. Please carefully read the manual thoroughly before beginning with the installation process!

2. Please remove your motherboard from the computer to assure safest mounting process in order to prevent any possible damages to your CPU and/or motherboard’s circuit board (PCB).

3. The EK-HFB and EK-ACF type fittings require only a small amount of force to screw them firmly in place since the liquid seal is ensured by the rubber o-ring gaskets.

4. The use of quality, market proved corrosion inhibiting coolants is always strongly recommended for any liquid cooling system.

STEP 1: GENERAL INFORMATION Sample photo of GIGABYTE X299 AORUS Gaming 7 motherboard

BAG CONTENT: Bag content is universal for all water blocks, you may not need all screws.

STEP 1: PREPARING YOUR MOTHERBOARD

STEP 2: PREPARING YOUR MOTHERBOARD

REMOVING STOCK COOLER. Remove all encircled screws. There are 2 screws on the

back of the motherboard that need to be removed in order to remove the factory

installed MOSFET heat pipe cooling solution. Please store away the factory backplate

as it will be reused.

1. APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND. Apply thermal compound on CPU heat spreader

(IHS) - see sample photo on right with enclosed EK-TIM Ectotherm thermal grease.

The quantity of about two rice grains is just about right. There is no need to cover

the whole IHS. Applying too much thermal grease will have negative impact on the

cooling performance!

2. CUTTING THERMAL PADS. Your block comes with thermal pads which needs to be trimmed in order to fit the voltage regulation area (MOSFET) on the motherboard’s

circuit board. WARNING: DIMENSIONS ON PICTURES BELOW ARE SCALED.

STEP 3: PLACING THE BLOCK ON TO MOTHERBOARD

STEP 4: ATTACHING BLOCK ON TO THE MOTHERBOARD

PLACING THE BLOCK ON THE MOTHERBOARD. Place the EK-FB GA X299 GAMING

Monoblock series water block gently to the motherboard or vice versa (as shown on

photo below). Make sure that mounting holes are aligned. Place it on factory installed

washers on the motherboard (MOSFET area).

Prior to fastening the screws please make sure the mounting holes on the

motherboard’s circuit board are aligned with the water block.

A) Mosfet part: Use two M2,5x5 AX1 screws with M2.5 washers. Tighten the screws

evenly. Do not use excessive force when tightening the screws!

B) CPU part: Use four thumb nuts with screws and washers. Tighten

the thumb nuts.

Use the enclosed screws and washers as shown in picture below:

STEP 5: CONNECTING THE RGB LED STRIP (optional)

Plug the 3-pin connector from Monoblock D-RGB LED strip to the motherboard.

Please ensure that the arrow indicated on the connector is plugged into the 5V line

as indicated on your motherboard. Failure to do so might damage your

motherboard or LED strip.

For the EK-FB GA X299 GAMING Monoblock series water block to operate properly the

G1/4 port nearest to the right edge of the water block MUST BE USED AS THE INLET

PORT. EK recommends the use of EK-ACF fittings. When using fittings other than EK-

ACF series please use hose clamps or appropriate substitute to secure the tubing to

the barb. The use of biocide containing and corrosion inhibiting coolant is always

recommended for any liquid cooling system.

REQUIRED TOOLS AND MOUNTING SCREWS:

scissors philips screwdriver Allen key

Place 1mm thermal pads in

larger strips over both

marked area and make

sure all mosfet chips and

inductor coils are covered.

3. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON MOTHERBOARD. Place thermal pads on

PCB as shown on the picture

PLEASE REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE FOIL FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE

THERMAL PADS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION!

4. PREPARING THE MOTHERBOARD FOR MONOBLOCK INSTALLATION:

From the backside there is a protective sticker which covers the mounting holes

for the water block. You should take a pointy object (small screwdriver) and

punch 4 holes through it (see picture below). Be careful not to damage the PCB!
