Place thermal pads on PCB as shown on the picture below.
PLEASE REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE FOIL FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE THERMAL
PADS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION!
STEP 6: PLACING THERMAL PADS
STEP 7: PLACING A BLOCK ON TO THE MOTHERBOARD
Place the
EK-FB ASRock X399 RGB Monoblock and heatsink gently to the motherboard
or vice versa (as shown on photo below). Make sure that mounting holes are aligned.
STEP 8.1: ATTACHING A BLOCK ON TO THE MOTHERBOARD
STEP 8.2: ATTACHING A BLOCK ON TO THE MOTHERBOARD
Prior to fastening the screws please make sure the mounting holes on the
motherboard’s circuit board are aligned with the water block.
Secure top 4 (four)
nickel screws with enclosed 2,5mm Allen key. Tighten screws diagonally and evenly
till the end of the thread. Do not use excessive force when tightening the screws!
Prior to fastening the screws please make sure the mounting holes on the
motherboard’s circuit board
are aligned with the water block. Use 2 (two) M2,5x5
DIN7985 screws with M2.5 PVC washers and 3 (three) M2,5x5 AX1 screws with M2.5
PVC washers. Tighten the screws evenly. Do not use excessive force when tightening
the screws!
STEP 9: CONNECTING THE RGB LED STRIP (optional)
Plug the 4-pin connector from Monoblock RGB LED strip to the RGB_LED header on
your motherboard. Please ensure that the arrow indicated on the connector is
plugged into the 12V line as indicated on your motherboard. Failure to do so will
damage your motherboard or LED strip.
For the EK-FB ASRock X399 Monoblock series water block to operate properly the lower
G1/4 port of the water block
MUST BE USED AS THE INLET PORT
. EK recommends
the use of EK-ACF fittings. When using fittings other than EK-ACF series please use
hose clamps or appropriate substitute to secure the tubing to the barb.
The use of
biocide containing and corrosion inhibiting coolant is always recommended for any
liquid cooling system.

scissors
philips screwdriver
Allen key
M2.5x5 AX1 screws
Tubing
IMPORTANT: USE
THIS OPENING AS
AN INLET PORT!
