MAKE SURE TO REMOVETHETWO SCREWS LOCATED ON THE I/O. KEEPTHE SCREWS ASIDE TO
USE LATER IN STEP 5.
STEP 2. REMOVING STOCK COOLER
STEP 3. APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND
RGB LED ADAPTER
UNFASTENTHE SCREWS AND USE THE PROVIDED H4 HEX SOCKET WRENCH TO REMOVE THE HEX
AGONAL SPACER-SCREWS (BLUE CIRCLES). AFTERYOU REMOVETHE HOUSING, DO NOT FORGET
TO UNPLUG THE FAN.
MAKE SURE TO KEEPTHE HEXAGONAL SPACER-SCREWS ASIDE FOR LATER USE (STEP 5).
APPLY THERMAL COMPOUND: LIGHTLY COAT NVIDIA GPU CHIP WITH ENCLOSED THERMAL PASTE.
WIPE OFF 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 4. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON PCB
PLACETHERMAL PADS ONTHE CIRCUIT BOARD AS SHOWN ONTHE PICTURE BELOW. REFER TO
NUMBERING IN PREVIOUS PICTURE WHEN APPLYING THERMAL PADS OF DIFFERENT SIZES OR
THICKNESS. PHANTEKS MADE SURE TO PROVIDE CUSTOMERS WITH MORE THAN ADEQUATE
QUANTITY OF THERMAL PADSTO COMPLETE THIS STEP.
Position 1: 16 x 13 x 0.75mm
Position 2: 10 x 90 x 0.75mm
Position 3: 20 x 90 x 1.25mm
STEP 5. PLACING THE BLOCK ON TO THE GRAPHICS CARD
STEP 7. INSTALLATION OF FITTINGS AND TUBING
SCREW IN THE TWO G1/4THREADED MALE FITTINGS, ATTACH THE LIQUID COOLINGTUBES AND
CONNECT THE WATER BLOCK(S) INTO THE COOLING CIRCUIT. PHANTEKS RECOMMENDS USING
PHANTEKS FITTINGS WITH THE PHANTEKS GLACIER SERIES WATER BLOCKS.
FOR THERMAL PAD 2 & 3, ADJUST AND CUT LENGTH
ACCORDING TO GPU VDD VRM CHIPS/MOSFET CHIPS.
