2.cont.. PLACING STANDOFFS ON BLOCK. Standoffs (thickness 2,5mm) are obligatory for
safe mounting and also to make this block fully functional.
3. ATTACHING BLOCK TO GRAPHIC CARD. By using Philips screwdriver, screw in
enclosed M3x8 and M3x6 screws . EKWB recommends start screwing the screws
around the GPU core and continue outwards. (HINT: leave screws half screwed in
until all are in their places, then fasten them. However, do not overdo it, as you may
strip threads.)
STEP 4: CHECKING FOR CONTACTS
Temporarily remove the water block to check for uniform surface contact between the block and the components. Note the pattern of contact on a piece of paper. Then repeat
substeps in previous section to reattach the block. In case you can’t get good contact, please check again your thermal pad thickness our contact our support service.
STEP 5: POSITIONING FITTINGS
Please use spacer only on copper base if you use fitting with G1/4 thread longer than 5mm (see sample picture). Screw in the fittings and plugs (please use spacers only on
copper base for fittings). Use 6mm Allen key to screw in and tighten new EK-Plug G1/4. Attach the liquid cooling tubes and connect the water-block(s) into the cooling circuit.
EKWB recommends using high flow fittings with the EK-FC 4X0 GTX series water blocks. To ensure that the tubes are securely attached to the barb/fittings, please use hose
clamps or an appropriate substitute. The use of an algaecide is always recommended for any liquid cooling system.
You can use any hole as an inlet/outlet hole.
STEP 6: INSERTING CARD IN YOUR PC CASE
Carefully lift your card with installed block and insert it in your PC case. Please bear in mind that your card suddenly withstands extra weight thus again be very careful not to
bend it or cause any other unneeded moves that might damage your card or block during installation.
STEP 6: IMPORTANT NOTICE
You will void the warranty by disassembling the water block
. Due to the specific design we cannot guarantee leak proof seal after the water block has been opened by a
third-party.
