CHECKING FOR CONTACTS
If necessary, temporarily remove the water block to check for uniform
surface contact between the block and components. Pay special
attention to the VRM section of the graphics card. Check whether
the water block makes contact with the intended integrated circuit.
Then repeat Steps from the previous section to re-attach the block.
In case you fail to obtain good contact, please check again that
thermal pads are placed correctly or contact our support service
at www.ekwb.com/support.
INSTALLATION OF FITTINGS AND TUBING
Screw-in two (2) G1/4 threaded male fittings. Attach the liquid
cooling tubes and connect the water block(s) to the cooling loop.
EK recommends using EK-Fittings with this water block.
To ensure the tubes are securely attached to the barb/fittings, please
use hose clamps or an appropriate substitute.
You can use any opening as an inlet/outlet port.
Do not forget to plug the remaining two openings with enclosed
EK-Plug G1/4 or its equivalent.
CAUTION:
In case of using connectors other than EK Compression
Fittings, pay special attention to the length of the fittings’ male G1/4”
thread. 5mm is the maximum G1/4” thread length allowed!
