Koolance VID coolers include redundant G1/4 threading on both sides. This means

Two G1/4 “caps” are included
with the VID coolers which can
be placed opposite the desired
nozzle locations.
Thermal paste is only required on the
main GPU. The other areas will utilize the

packet, or a piece of thick paper (such as
a business card). Thermal paste should not
be placed on the surrounding metal support frame or small
surface soldered components.
