Ekwb EK-FB KIT GA X58 (UD7) Handbuch

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.ekwaterblocks.com for updates.

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

The barb hose fittings require only a small amount of force to screw them in; otherwise the high flow fittings might break. These fittings do not need to be tightened with much force because the

liquid seal is made using o-rings.

STEP 1: GENERAL INFORMATION Sam

hoto of GIGABYTE GA X58 UD7 rev.1 PCB desi

STEP 2: PREPARING YOUR MOTHERBOARD

1. REMOVING STOCK COOLER. Remove 2 screws under NB cooler and unclip

the rest of the 10 clips that are fixating the stock cooler and heat sink to MB.

2. CLEANING THE PCB. Carefully detach the original stock cooler after removing all

screws securing it to the board. Wipe off the remains (by using non–abrasive cloth or qtip,

as shown on sample photo) of the original thermal compound until the components and

circuit board are completely clean. EKWB does not recommend using any liquids for

removing paste.

3. APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND

Apply thermal compound: lightly coat the Northbridge and Southbridge with for

example Céramique™ thermal compound. Follow this link http://www.arctic-

cooling.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=39_&mID=127&language=en for

detailed instructions. EKWB recommends non-conductive MX-2, which should be

applied in cross form for best performance (see sample picture).

4. CUTTING THERMAL PADS. Two thermal pads (90x15x1 mm) are enclosed with your

water block kit. You will have to cut out small chunk from one thermal pad in order to cover

all marked surfaces surfaces that are left exposed on mosfets. (WARNING: DIMENSIONS

ON PICTURES BELLOW ARE SCALED!)

5. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON MOTHERBOARD. Place thermal pads you cut on PCB as shown on picture bellow. (PLEASE REMOVE FOIL OF THERMAL PADS ON

BOTH SIDES PRIOR TO INSTALLATION.)

STEP 3: PREPARING YOUR WATER BLOCK

1. ATTACHING STANDOFFS. Apply small amount of thermal grease around mounting holes and

place acetal standoffs on NB/SB block (thickness 2,1 mm) so the holes are concentric. Thermal

paste provides enough adhesive force for standoffs to stay in a place for easier installation.

2. PLACING BLOCK OVER GPU. Place the motherboard on the inverted

water blocks or vice versa and attach them with enclosed screws as shown.

Make sure that mounting holes are aligned.

STEP 4: ATTACHING BLOCK TO MOTHERBOARD

1. MOUNTING THE BLOCK.

For

perfect thermal contact, the block does not use a sprin

mountin

system; therefore when attachin

be very careful to ti

hten all screws equally.

Tightening the screws beginning in the center of the block near the northbridge, and continue evenly outwards. Do not use too much pressure

screws, because motherboard might

bend and either cause bad contact with water block, or break a connection on the board.

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

STEP 5: CHECKING FOR CONTACTS

Temporarily r

emove the water block to check for uniform surface contact between the block and the components. Note the pattern of contact on a piece of paper. Then repeat

steps 3 and 4 to reattach the block. Block was tested on physical hardware. Due to height variations of chipset some differences may occur. In case you have problem with block

contacts please write to our support mail.

STEP 6: POSITIONING FITTINGS AND CONNECTING TO WATER CIRCUIT

1. Screw in fittings as shown in picture, attach the liquid cooling tubes and connect the water-block(s) into the cooling circuit. The EK-FB GA X58 UD7 series are not sold with

high flow fittings. To ensure that the tubes are securely attached to the barb fittings, please use hose clamps or an appropriate substitute. The use of an algaecide is always

recommended for any liquid cooling system. You can use any hole as an inlet/outlet hole.
