STEP 9: FANS – CONNECTING
CABLES (AMD)
OPTION 1:
Connect the 4-pin PWM connector of the fan
cable directly to the CPU fan-header on the
motherboard. Always use the CPU fan-header
if possible.
OPTION 2:
In the case of EK-AIO BASIC 240 and EK-AIO
BASIC 360 versions (with 2 or 3 fans), you may
connect the connectors from each of the fans
to the connectors on the Y-splitter cable and
then connect the Y-splitter connector to the
fan-header on the motherboard. Always use
the CPU fan-header if possible.

OPTIONAL STEP! APPLYING THE
THERMAL COMPOUND
This step is relevant only in the case of a
second installation of AIO or if you have
damaged the pre-applied paste on the
backside of the pump unit! For the fi rst
installation, you don’t need to apply the
additional thermal compound to the CPU’s
contact surface!
Wipe the CPU’s contact surface (using a
non-abrasive cloth or a Q-tip as shown in the
sample image). On a clean IHS, apply a line
of thermal compound and spread it over the
whole CPU heat spreader (IHS) with a credit
card or something similar.
