Liquid cooling circuit notes
• The water-block is installed onto the back-panel for safe shipping. Unscrew the 4 springs assemblies, and remove the four standoffs used to
secure the block onto the back-panel. You will need these standoffs later, together with the spring and screw assemblies to install the water-
block to your motherboard.
• During installation of your motherboard inside the case, it is good practice to strap the block out of the way, using a rubber band for example.
• Your cooling circuit is already filled with coolant (90% pure water, 10% coolant). All you need to do is to install the water-block to your CPU.
Please follow the separate installation guides for AMD
 or INTEL processors.
• Power to the pump: a spare power cord is provided to supply A/C power to the pump. It needs to be connected to an A/C outlet.
