Check Point
Fanless VGA
>> 19
1. After completing the Fanless VGA installation, turn on the
computer to check if both of the main heat sink are at
similar temperature range (Leave the computer running
for a few minutes to confirm the temperature and you can
tell the difference by turning the computer off and touch
both of the heatsinks with your hand).
If temperature for both main heat sink seems to differ
greatly, please check the following:
A. Is the thermal grease properly spread onto the following
six areas:
a. On the surface of front heat sink base
b. Inside the tunnel of front heat sink base
c. On the surface of rear heat sink base
d. Inside the tunnel of rear heat sink base
e. Inside the tunnel of main front heat sink
f. Inside the tunnel of main rear heat sink
B. Is the GPU and the front heat sink base tightly in contact?
C. Is the heatpipe properly in contact with the heat sinks?
2. We do not recommend overclocking the video card. We
are not responsible for any damages caused by
overclocking.
3. If the heatpipe is tampered with or scratched by a sharp
object, it may not function properly. Please handle with
care.
4. After successfully installing the video card, do not shake
or exert excessive force on any part of the heat sinks.
The screws and nuts that hold the heat sinks may
become loose.

>>>> 22
Thank you for purchasing Fanless VGA. This product is a
new GPU thermal solution that applies heatpipe
technology and can be applied to video card with
mounting holes on the PCB.
Be sure to read this user guide in order to use this
product properly and safely.
Features :
>>
>> - High performance fanless GPU cooler,
0dBA cooling solution, reduce total
system noise
- Dual heatpipe move the heat more
efficiently
- Much better heat dissipation is
delivered by larger heatsink surface
- Universal clip for both nVIDIA and Ati

Step12: Position the main rear heat sink.
After applying equal amount of thermal grease on the
tunnel of the main rear heat sink, position the main rear
heat sink plate toward the heatpipe and then mount it onto
the rear heat sink base using screw-E.
Important : Make sure the finished
Fanless VGA is similar to the picture
as shown. Main rear heat sink needs
to be in position underneath with the
main front heat sink.

Step11: Apply the thermal grease on the
rear heat sink base.
Turn the card over and apply equal amount of thermal
grease on the rear heat sink base (Thermal grease
should also be applied into the tunnel ). Then, position
the heatpipe into the tunnel on rear heat sink base.

Important :
Most GPU`s on the video card are slightly concave, the
curvature of which is directed toward the center. Thus,
more thermal grease is required at the center. Also, in the
case of the ATI Radeon 9700 Pro and 9800 Pro, the
protruding graphics core is surrounded by a protective
frame, which is higher than the core itself, thus generous
amounts of thermal grease must be applied on the core.
If proper contact between the front heatsink and the GPU
core cannot be made, it will lead to the possibility of the
core being overheat.
