INSTALLING THE WATER BLOCK
STEP 1
PLACING THE BLOCK ON THE GRAPHICS CARD
This procedure is the same for all full-cover water blocks.
Carefully position the water block with preinstalled standoffs on
the graphics card. During this process, make sure you have aligned
mounting holes of the PCB with holes of the water block (same
applies to other tops).
Pay attention not to use too much force when pressing the
block down to the PCB since chip dies are prone to cracking.

ATTACHING THE WATER BLOCK
Use fifteen (15) M2.5 X 4 AX1 screws and fourteen (14) M2.5
PVC washers. Tighten the screws evenly using the Phillips head
screwdriver. EK recommends you start tightening the screws around
the GPU core first and then continuing outward to prevent damage
to the GPU.
