This product is intended for installation by expert users only. Please

consult with a qualiﬁed technician for installation. Improper installation

may result in damage to the equipment. EK 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 website at www.ekwb.com for updates.

Prior to the 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:

Carefully read the manual before beginning with the

installation process!

Remove your motherboard from the chassis for the safest

mounting process and to prevent damaging your CPU and/or

motherboard’s circuit board (PCB).

EK Fittings require only a small amount of force to screw

them ﬁrmly in place since the liquid seal is ensured with the

rubber O-ring gaskets.

The use of quality market-proven corrosion-inhibiting

coolants is always strongly recommended for any liquid

cooling system.

Do not use pure distilled water as a cooling liquid! For best

results, EK recommends the use of EK-CryoFuel Coolants.

CUTTING AND PLACING THERMAL PADS

Your monoblock comes with thermal pads that need to be trimmed

to ﬁt the voltage regulation area (MOSFET) on the motherboard’s

circuit board.

APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND

Apply the enclosed EK-TIM Ectotherm thermal grease (thermal

compound) on the CPU heat spreader – IHS – as shown in the

image. The layer of the thermal compound must be thin and even in

thickness over the entire surface of the IHS.

The excessive or uneven application of thermal grease may

lead to poor performance!
