Installation and mounting manual for EK-FC 5970 water block

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

hic card. STEP 2: PREPARING YOUR GRAPHIC CARD.

1. REMOVING STOCK COOLER: Remove encircled

screws:

STEP 2 cont.: PREPARING YOUR GRAPHIC CARD.

1 cont.. REMOVING STOCK COOLER. Remove all encircled screws. All heat sink

assembly screws and retention plate should be removed. There are 19 screws on the back of

the graphic card.

2. CLEANING THE PCB. Carefully detach the original backplate and stock cooler after

removing all fasteners securing it to the board and bracket. Wipe off the remains

(by using non–abrasive cloth or Q-tip, 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 GPU with for example Arctic Cooling MX2 ™ or MX3

™ thermal compound. Follow this link:

http://www.arctic‐cooling.com/catalog/images/install_mx2_retail.pdffor detailed

instructions. EKWB recommends to apply thermal grease in cross form for best performance

(see sample picture).

4. CUTTING THERMAL PADS. Your block comes with thermal pads, which have to be

placed on chips (PLEASE REMOVE FOIL ON BOTH SIDES OF THERMAL PADS PRIOR

TO INSTALLATION. WARNING: DIMENSION OF THE PADS BELLOW ARE SCALED.)

#1: 15,6x13x0,5 mm

#2: 25x30x0,5 mm

#3: 60x50x1 mm

5. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON PCB. Place thermal pads on chips so that numbers on chips match size of thermal pads. Thermal pad number 2,3 will have to be cut by user to

match all small chips (EKWB made sure users have more than enough pads to cover all surfaces that need to be covered to make block fully function). You can also use small drop

of thermal grease on chips to make thermal pads more adhesive.

6. PLACING STANDOFFS ON BLOCK. Standoffs are obligatory to make this block fully

functional. Please use small amount of thermal grease on standoffs and glue them so they are

concentric with mounting holes. Once they are stuck to block be careful not to move them.

7. PLACING BLOCK TO GRAPHIC CARD. During this process please make sure you

align holes on PCB with holes on block. Also pay attention not to use too much force

by pressing block down to PCB. Chips are prone to cracking.

8. ATTACHING BLOCK TO GRAPHIC CARD. By using Philips screwdriver screw in enclosed M3x6 and M3x10 screws into the block. EKWB recommends start screwing the screws

around the GPU core and continue outwards.

STEP 3: CHECKING FOR CONTACTS

Temporarily r

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

substeps 5 and 8 to reattach the block applying more or less pressure to the areas where you have found it necessary.

STEP 4: POSITIONING FITTINGS

Please use spacer on copper base (see sample picture). Screw in the fittings and plugs (please use spacers only on copper base), attach the liquid cooling tubes and connect the

water-block(s) into the cooling circuit. EKWB recommends using high flow fittings with the EK-FC 5XXX series water blocks. 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.

STEP 5: INSERTING CARD IN YOUR PC CASE

Carefully lift your card with installed block and insert it in your PC case. Bear in mind that your card suddenly withstands extra weight thus again be very careful not to bend it or

cause any other unneeded moves that might damage your card or block during installation.
