DISCLAIMER -This product is intended for advanced users. Please
consult with a qualied technician for installation, improper instal-
lation may result in damage to your equipment.While all eorts
have been made to provide the most comprehensive information
possible, Phanteks assumes no liability expressed or implied for
any damage(s) occurring to your components as a result of using
Phanteks cooling products, either due to mistake or omission on
our part in the below instructions, or due to failure or defect in the
Phanteks cooling products.
WARNING - Turn o the power to your system and discharge your
body’s static electric charge by touching a grounded surface – for
example, the metal surface of the power supply or chassis – before
performing any hardware procedure. Phanteks assumes no liability
for any damage, caused directly or indirectly, by improper installation
of any components. If you do not feel comfortable with performing
the installation procedure, consult a qualied computer technician.
*Please do not disassemble the water block. Warranty will be voided.
STEP 1. REMOVING STOCK COOLER
Take out the top EVA-FOAM from the box to use as a base

STEP 3. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON PCB
Remove the protective lm and place thermal pads on the PCB as shown on the picture. A
spare thermal pad is included.
Make sure to remove the protective lm on both sides of the thermal pads.
For thermal pad 2 & thermal pad 3,
adjust and cut length according to
MOSFET chips.
STEP 4. PLACE THE BLOCK ON TO THE GRAPHICS CARD
Carefully position the water block onto the graphics card. During the process please make sure
you align the mounting holes on the PCB with the holes on the water block.
Make sure to lay the GPU with the waterblock at down without resting on the PCI
bracket. Do not use too much force by pressing the block down to the PCB. Chip dies
are prone to cracking.
STEP 6. CONNECTING THE PHANTEKS RGB CABLE
Connect the 2 RGB connectors to the RGB LED strips. With the included RGB motherboard
adapter you can now connect the waterblock directly to your RGB equipped motherboard:

callibration of your connected LED strips.
3. Run the Motherboard RGB LED software
and follow the instructions to set up your
RGB LED lights.
STEP 6. PLACING THE BLOCK ON TO THE GRAPHICS CARD
STEP 7. INSTALLATION OF FITTINGS AND TUBING
Screw in the two G1/4 threaded male ttings, attach the liquid cooling tubes
and connect the water block(s) into the cooling circuit. Phanteks recommends
Phanteks ttings with the Phanteks Glacier Series water blocks.
DO NOT FORGET TO PLUG THE REMAINING TWO OPENING.
FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, WE RECOMMEND TO MATCH THE INLET/OUTLET
STEP 5. CONNECTING THE RGB LED (IF CONNECTOR IS PRESENT)
Make sure to connect the RGB LED cable from the waterblock to the GPU PCB

Route the RGB LED cable between the water block and GPU. Carefully
position the water block onto the graphics card. During this process
please make sure you align mounting holes on the PCB with holes on the
water block.
DO NOT USETOO MUCH FORCE BY PRESSINGTHE BLOCK DOWN TO THE PCB. CHIP DIES

MAKE SURE TO LAY THE GPU WITH WATER BLOCK FLAT DOWN WITHOUT RESTING ON
THE PCI.
PRONE TO CRACKING.
Use the included 4x M2.5x5 screws and washers (shown in blue) and
11x M2.5x8 screws (shown in red) to tighten the block to the GPU core.
STEP 4. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON PCB
Place thermal pads on the circuit board as shown on the picture below. Refer to
numbering in previous picture when applying thermal pads of di erent sizes or
thickness. Phanteks made sure to provide customers with more than adequate
quantity of thermal pads to complete this step.
FOR THERMAL PAD 2, ADJUST AND CUT LENGTH ACCORDING
TO GPU VDD VRM CHIPS.

Optional Upgrade
Sync the lighting with a Phanteks case / RGB Motherboard using the Phanteks upgrade kit
(not included).
Once the water block is in place, plug in the remaining RGB LED cable
connector to the water block as shown in the illustration.
NOT APPLICABLE FOR MSI ARMOR SERIES
STEP 7. INSTALLALTION OF FITTINGS AND TUBING
Screw in the two G1/4 threaded male ttings, attach the liquid cooling tubes and connect the
water block(s) into the cooling circuit. Phanteks recommends using Phanteks tting with the
Phanteks Glacier Series water blocks.
- For the best performance, we recommend to match the inlet/outlet conguration
of the water block.
- Do not forget to plug the remaining two openings.
- Always perform a leaktest before starting your computer.
hexagonal spacer-screws H4 Hex Socket Wrench needed
Use the included four (4) M2.5x5 screws and washers(in red) to tighten the block to the
GPU core. *Use the stock hexagonal spacer screws(in blud) from Step 1 that you set aside
and fasten it to the PCB using the provided H4 Hex Socket Wrench.
Once the water block is installed to the PCB, take the back plate and align with the
mounting holes of the hexagonal spacer-screws. Fasten the stock screws that you set aside
in Step 1(in blue) to the hexagonal spacer-screws. Finally, use the two (2) included screws
with the hex nut to complete the installation(in red).
