1. Preparing
your
graphics
card
d.
Remove the existing heat sink
e.
Carefully clean the GPU (graphics processing unit)
f.
Lightly coat the GPU with the provided thermal compound. Only a paper-thin coat is necessary. It should be applied using
preferably a razor blade, or a credit card, held between thumb and index at a 45-degree angle.
Before installing the block onto the graphics card
cut two pieces of tubing of sufficient length to connect to the rest of your circuit, and install them
into the MCW50™ Inlet and outlet. It is absolutely imperative to use the provided tube inserts with clear vinyl (soft) tubing, as shown below:
Shown here with an MCW50-T™ version

Make sure that the tubes are fully inserted into the fitting. The tip of the plastic tube
inserts should be flush with the inlet and outlet openings, as shown above. Inserting the
tubes requires a firm push, accompanied by a twisting motion, and a little bit of grease
around the tubing really helps ☺
