CHECKING FOR CONTACTS

If necessary remove the water block to check for uniform surface 
contact between the block and the 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 sub-steps in previous section to re-attach the block.   

In case you fail to obtain good contact, please check again that 
your thermal pad thickness or contact our support service at: 
http://www.ekwb.com/support.

INSERTING THE CARD IN YOUR PC CASE

Carefully lift your graphics card with block installed and insert it into 
the correct PCIe expansion slot on your PC’s motherboard (consult 
motherboard manual). Please consider that your graphics card 
might be heavier than it was with the stock cooler, so be very careful 
when handling it. Avoid excessive manipulation of the graphics card 
assembly which may damage your graphics card, motherboard or 
water block during installation.
