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
