5. Assembling Rubber Rings and VGA Nipples
1) Slide a Rubber Ring onto each bolt (PH M3X10) protruding out of the back of the graphics card.
2) Screw the VGA Nipples onto the bolts by holding the VGA Nipple with one hand and tightening the bolt
with a screwdriver in the other.
Note)
Do not rotate the nipple, but tighten only with the screwdriver, in order to avoid tearing the Rubber Ring.
6. Evenly spread the thermal grease onto the grooves in the VGA Block Base. Then, place the VGA
Heatpipes as shown in the diagram and screw on the VGA Hand Bolts (M3 X 13) just enough for
movement of the VGA Heatpipes to be possible.
Note)
1) There are two types of VGA Heatpipes. Refer to the diagram for proper installation of each. As shown
below, the shorter heatpipe goes below the longer heatpipe.
2) The opposite ends of the heatpipe look different (round vs. sharp). The round end should be placed
toward the heat source (VGA Block).
