STEP 1
Your GPU water block comes with thermal pads that have to be cut
into smaller pieces to cover all the VRM components, such as COILs,
MOSFETs, and drivers.
You must remove the protective foil from both sides of the
thermal pad before installation.

CLEANING THE PCB
Carefully detach the original stock cooler after removing all screws
that are securing it to the board. Wipe off the remains of the original
thermal compound using a nonabrasive cloth or Q-tip, as shown
in the sample image, until the components and circuit board are
completely clean. EK recommends the use of denatured alcohol for
removing TIM leftovers.
