Fan Installation

:  Place the fan over the heat sink. The airflow should be 

blowing down (fan label facing down). Place the fan guard over the fan. 
Tighten the four 6-32 x 1 5/8” screws.  The fan is equipped with two 
connectors: a four pin molex connector which must be connected to the 
power supply, and a 3 pin single wire connector which connects to the 
MB fan sensor header. 

7. 

Optional fan rheostat

: a rheostat model # RH070 is sold separately, 

and allows to adjust the fan speed. It connects between the fan power  
connector and the power supply connector. Please consult your 
distributor if you wish to purchase this item. Reducing the fan speed 
reduces fan noise up to 9 dBA. It also reduces thermal performance, and 
will affect overclocking performance accordingly. It is however perfectly 
appropriate for non overclocked processors. 

III. Final inspection 

 
Now that the heat sink is installed, startup your computer, go into the BIOS and observe the CPU temperature.  Under normal ambient 
temperature conditions, the processor temperature should never exceed 55

°

 C (130 

°

 F).  If it does, shut down the computer immediately, 

and review your entire installation.  Troubleshooting help is available on our web site at 

www.swiftnets.com

, or by calling customer support at 

562-595-8009.
