Prepare to Fit the GPU Cooler Assembly
Before fitting the GPU cooler assembly, it is important to determine the correct orientation so that when the graphics card is fitted into the DB4, the heat pipes run
horizontally. The diagram below shows the correct orientation with the heat pipes running parallel to the card I/O bracket and in the direction of the PCI connector.
PCI Connector
The GPU cooler secures to the graphics card using 4 spring loaded screws which require mounting nuts to be attached to the back side of the card. The nuts are
supplied with double sided adhesive pads which attach the nuts to the card. Locate the same holes used to mount the stock cooler and stick the nuts to them
insuring they align with the holes and that the protruding side faces away from the PCB (in most cases the hole in the PCB will be too small for them to pass).
