1) Attaching the VGA RAM Heatsinks
Remove the film from the Thermal Tapes
on the bottom of the RAM Heatsinks and
attach the Heatsinks on the VGA RAM.
Note 1) If thermal grease or other residue
remains on the RAM, the Thermal
Tapes will not stick.
Clean the surface of the RAM with
acetone or alcohol before attaching.
Note 2) The bonding strength of the Thermal
Tape reaches 90% after 24 hours
of curing.
Do not put excessive force on the
RAM Heatsinks during this period.
Note 3) Thermal Tapes lose adhesiveness
after it has been used for attachment
once and cannot be reused.
Purchase Thermal Tapes separate ly
for future reattachments.
2) Installing the Nipples
As shown in the diagram, install the Nipple
and Bolt B on the Mounting Hole with a
Washer in between on both sides of the
VGA card. Use only the supplied Washers.
Make sure to check the VGA card's correct
Nipple installation hole position to install

4) Installing the VGA Water Block
Place the VGA Water Block and the clip on
the center of the VGA chipset. Screw each
bolt B on each nipple slightly, and tighten
each bolt B a few turns at a time while
alternating between the two until the Clip
ends are completely pressed against the
Nipples.
Notes) Make sure that the Water Block’s base
and the VGA Chipset are completely in
contact with each other.
5) Installing the VGA Card
Insert the assembled VGA card into the
motherboard’s AGP (or PCIe) slot. Use the
Fixing Bolt to fix the VGA card on to the
computer case. If the VGA card has an on-board
power connector, remember to plug in the
power cable.
6) Installing the Tubes and the Tube Clamps
Plug the tubes over the VGA Water Block’s
fittings and install the Tube Clamps.
Note 1) Use a proper tool (e.g. cutting nipper)
when installing the Tube Clamps.
Note 2) Hold the VGA Water Block with one hand
while installing the Tube Clamps so that
