Warranty, support and FAQs
!
As it is not possible to reliably calculate or control the forces
that act upon a system during transport (e.g. in shipping), we
generally recommend, for safety reasons, taking off coolers with
a total weight of more than 700g (incl. fan).
If the weight of the heatsink without fan is below 700g and
the total weight including fan is above 700g, we recommend
taking off the fan from the heatsink in order to reduce the weight
below 700g.
Noctua cannot be held responsible for any damage that may
arise due to excessive stress during transport if you keep the
heatsink installed.
Transporting your system

If there are residual traces of thermal paste or thermal pads on
your CPU, please clean them off first. Then press a small drop with
3-4mm diameter of NT-H1 onto the centre of the heatspreader.
Applying the thermal paste
Caution: Applying too much thermal paste will lower heat
conductivity and cooling performance!

Fix the mounting bars using the four
NM-ITS1
thumb screws.
Caution: Gently tighten the screws until they stop, but do not use
excessive force (max. torque 0.6 Nm).
Caution: Make sure that the curved sides of the mounting bars are
pointing outwards.
Caution: If you’re using the cooler for the first time, please take
off the protection cover at the bottom side of the heatsink first!
Put the heatsink onto the CPU and screw it to the screw threads
of the mounting bars.
