Installation of the cooler
The cooler is placed on the prepared graphics board. Then turn the board around together with the
cooler. All enclosed screws are now screwed in manually in the cooler together with the enclosed
washers.
The GPU section is installed with 4 x M2.5 screws and washers. In the range of the voltage
transformer and the NVIO, use 4 x M3 screws and washers.
Once all screws are placed in the cooler, you can tighten them slightly. To do so, tighten the screws in
a cross-diagonal pattern in the GPU section. Then slightly tighten the screws in the range of the
voltage transformer and the NVIO.
Installation and leak test
After the installation, a check and test run must be performed! The coolers are constructed on the
reference design; still, all sections of the board have to be checked for possible contact to the cooler.
In addition, the contact of the GPU to the cooler must be checked along with the bending of the board.
A slight bending of the board is normal.
A leak test should preferably be performed outside of the computer. If this is not possible, the
hardware may not be turned on during the test run!
Once all of the cooler elements were tested, the computer can be put into operation. Check the
temperature of the CPU immediately after the start!
General information
The HEATKILLER® GPU-X² GTX285-V2 has a defined input/output. The port on the left (pointing
towards the slot cover) is the input. The output is located on the right, and the connections can be
installed either on the top or the bottom.
We recommend using demineralised or deionised water (distilled water) as cooling medium. To
prevent the build-up of algae, use common citric acid, which reliably prevents the spread of algae.
