All disclosures, notices and warranty conditions are being written on EKWB web page. Please check terms of use. Revision 1.0. Published on July 12th 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 MSI X299 Gaming Pro Carbon 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 MSI X299 GAMING

PRO CARBON 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 4-pin connector from Monoblock RGB LED strip to the motherboard. Please

ensure that the arrow indicated on the connector is plugged into the 12v line as

indicated on your motherboard. Failure to do so will damage your motherboard or

LED strip.

For the EK-FB MSI X299 GAMING PRO CARBON 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:

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!

Place 1mm thermal pads in larger strips over

both marked area and make sure all mosfet

chips and inductor coils are covered.
