4. Танзим ва насб

This section outlines the general steps for installing the water block onto your graphics card. Specific steps for disassembling your graphics card may vary by model; refer to your graphics card manufacturer's documentation for detailed disassembly instructions.

4.1 Омодасозии корти графикӣ

1. Carefully remove the stock cooler from your graphics card. This typically involves unscrewing the mounting screws from the GPU die and removing screws securing the shroud and backplate.
2. Thoroughly clean the GPU die and all memory modules (VRAM) and voltage regulator modules (VRM) of any residual thermal paste or thermal pad material using isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free cloth.

4.2 Applying Thermal Materials

1. Apply a small amount of thermal paste to the center of the GPU die. Spread it evenly to a thin layer using a spatula or by allowing the pressure from the water block to spread it.
2. Cut the provided thermal pads to the correct sizes as indicated in the included diagram (if applicable) or as per the Alphacool installation guide for your specific GPU model.
3. Carefully place the thermal pads onto the VRAM and VRM components. Ensure good contact and coverage. The Alphacool Eisblock design utilizes 1mm thick thermal pads for optimal component contact and cooling performance.

4.3 Насби блоки обӣ

1. Align the Alphacool Eisblock Aurora water block with the mounting holes on your graphics card.
2. Gently lower the water block onto the graphics card, ensuring the GPU die makes contact with the copper base and thermal pads are correctly seated.
3. Secure the water block using the provided mounting screws. Tighten screws in a diagonal pattern to ensure even pressure, but do not overtighten.
4. Connect the digital RGB cable from the water block to a compatible 3-pin 5V addressable RGB header on your motherboard or a dedicated RGB controller.

4.4 Integrating into the Cooling Loop

1. Install appropriate G1/4" fittings (not included) into the inlet and outlet ports of the water block.
2. Connect the water block to your existing or new custom liquid cooling loop using tubing. Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free.
3. Fill your cooling loop with coolant and perform a leak test. It is highly recommended to use an air pressure leak tester before introducing liquid. Once filled, run the pump for at least 24 hours with the system powered off (using a PSU jumper) to check for any leaks. Place paper towels under all connections to easily spot drips.

5. Дастурҳои истифодабарӣ

Once the water block is successfully installed and the liquid cooling loop has passed a leak test, you can power on your system.

• Оғози ибтидоӣ: Monitor coolant levels and temperatures closely during the first few hours of operation.
• Назорати RGB: The integrated digital RGB lighting can be controlled via your motherboard's RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion) or a dedicated Alphacool RGB controller. Ensure the 3-pin 5V ARGB header is correctly connected.
• Мониторинги ҳарорат: Use monitoring software to keep track of your GPU temperatures to ensure optimal cooling performance.

6. Нигоҳдорӣ

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your liquid cooling system.

• Иваз кардани моеъи хунуккунӣ: It is recommended to replace the coolant every 6-12 months, depending on the coolant type and system usage.
• Тозакунии система: Ҳангоми иваз кардани моеъи хунуккунӣ, шустани тамоми ҳалқаро бо оби тозашуда ё маҳлули махсуси тозакунӣ барои тоза кардани ҳама гуна ҷамъшавӣ баррасӣ кунед.
• Block Inspection: Periodically inspect the water block for any signs of corrosion, algae growth, or blockages. If necessary, disassemble and clean the block using appropriate cleaning agents for acrylic and copper.
• Тафтиши арматура: Ensure all fittings remain tight and leak-free.

7. Баррасии мушкилот

Ин бахш мушкилоти умумиеро, ки шумо метавонед дучор ояд, баррасӣ мекунад.

• Иҷрои пасти хунуккунӣ:
  • Ensure proper thermal paste application and thermal pad contact.
  • Check for air bubbles trapped in the water block. Tilt the system gently to dislodge them.
  • Verify pump is operating correctly and coolant flow is adequate.
  • Inspect radiators for dust buildup and clean if necessary.
• Ихроҷ:
  • Дарҳол системаро хомӯш кунед.
  • Identify the source of the leak. Tighten fittings or replace O-rings/tubing as needed.
  • Perform another leak test before powering on.
• Равшании RGB кор намекунад:
  • Check the connection of the 3-pin 5V ARGB cable to the motherboard or controller.
  • Боварӣ ҳосил кунед, ки сарлавҳаи RGB дар BIOS/UEFI-и motherboard-и шумо фаъол аст.
  • Санҷед, ки нармафзори дурусти RGB насб ва танзим шудааст.
