Installation Procedure (Usage as VGA Cooler)
4. Spring Insertion on the Fixing Nut
Slowly turn the Spring in counter clockwise motion so that theSpring is correctly
attached to the Fixing Nut.
Note 1)
The ends of the Springs are of different diameters. Install the Spring end with the
smaller diameter on the Fixing Nut as shown in the diagram.
Note 2)
Make sure that the Spring is installed perpendicularly and not leaning to one
side.
1. VGA RAM Heatsink Attachment
Remove the film from the Thermal Tapes on the bottom
of the RAM Heatsinks and attach the Heatsinks on the
VGA RAM.
Note 1)
If Thermal Grease or other residue remains on the RAM,
then the Thermal Tapes will not stick. Clean the surface of
the RAM with acetone or alcohol before attaching the
RAM Heatsinks.
Note 2)
The bonding strength of the Thermal Tapes reaches 90%
after 24 hours of curing. Do not exert excessive force on
the RAM Heatsinks during this period.
Note 3)
Thermal Tapes are not reusable because they lose
adhesiveness after their initial application. Purchase new
Thermal Tapes if the RAM Heatsinks need to be
reattached.
