INSTALLATION
STEP 1. REMOVING STOCK COOLER
Remove all highlighted screws. All heat sink assembly screws should be
removed,
including self-adhesive washers on both sides of the PCB (if present).

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 -

LIGHTLY COAT NVIDIA GPU CHIP WITH ENCLOSED THERMAL PASTE.
STEP 3. APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND
Wipe o the remains of the original thermal compound until components and
Circuit board are completely clean (we recommend using a isopropanol
cleaning pad). Apply a light coat (see image) of the PH-NDC_01 thermal paste.

STEP 2. REMOVING PCBA BRACKET
Unfasten the screws on the PCBA bracket.

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

header. (see illustration)
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 PRESSING THE BLOCK DOWN TOTHE PCB. CHIP DIES
ARE
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.
