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.

4. The above photo shows the fan

installed on the motherboard.

• Plug the optional fan cables to any of the OPT FAN1~5 connectors on the

motherboard.

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

fan and motherboard components.

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.
