Installing the optional fan

1. Position the fan above the pipe

and heatsink assembly.

2. Fit the grooved edge to the

heatsink.

3. Carefully push down the fan until

it snugly fits the heatsink, then

connect the fan cables.

• Plug the optional fan cables to the NB_FAN and/or PWR_FAN connector

on the motherboard.

• Make sure the optional fan is installed correctly to prevent damage to the

fan and motherboard components.

Do not tilt the fan.

Do not install the fan with its rear side

facing you.

Install the optional fan only if you are using a passive cooler or a water cooler.

Installing the optional fan with an active CPU cooler will interfere with the airflow

and destabilize the system.
