All disclosures, notices and warranty conditions are being written on EKWB web page. Please check terms of use. Revision 1.0. Published on December 15th 2015

This product is intended for installation only by expert users. Please consult with a qualified technician for installation. Improper installation may result in damage to your equipment. EK Water Blocks assumes no

liability whatsoever, expressed or implied, for the use of these products, nor their installation. The following instructions are subject to change without notice. Please visit our web site at www.ekwb.com for updates.

Before installation of this product please read important notice, disclosure and warranty conditions printed on the back of the box.

Before you start using this product please follow these basic guidelines:

1. Please carefully read the manual before through before beginning with the installation process!

2. Please remove your motherboard from the computer to assure safest mounting process in order to prevent any possible damages to your CPU and/or motherboard’s circuit board (PCB).

3. The EK-HFB and EK-ACF type fittings require only a small amount of force to screw them firmly in place since the liquid seal is ensured by the rubber o-ring gaskets.

4. The use of quality, market proved corrosion inhibiting coolants is always strongly recommended for any liquid cooling system.

STEP 1: PREPARING YOUR MOTHERBOARD

STEP 2: PREPARING YOUR MOTHERBOARD

REMOVING STOCK COOLER. Remove all encircled screws. There are 5 screws on

the back of the motherboard that need to be removed in order to remove the

factory installed MOSFET heat pipe cooling solution. Please store away the two

factory backplates as they will be reused. The plastic I/O shield must also be

removed. In order to do so you must remove the 3 screws on the backside of the

motherboard.

1. APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND. Apply thermal compound on CPU heat

spreader (IHS) - see sample photo on right with enclosed EK-TIM Ectotherm

thermal grease.

The quantity of about two rice grains is just about right. There is no need to cover

the whole IHS. Applying too much thermal grease will have negative impact on the

cooling performance!

2.. CUTTING THERMAL PADS. Your block comes with thermal pads which needs to be trimmed in order to fit the voltage regulation area (MOSFET) on the

motherboard’s circuit board. WARNING: DIMENSIONS ON PICTURES BELOW ARE SCALED.

Replacement thermal pads @ EKWB web shop:

STEP 3: PLACING THE BLOCK ON TO MOTHERBOARD

PLACING THE BLOCK ON THE MOTHERBOARD. Place the EK-FB ASUS M8E Monoblock series water block gently to the motherboard or vice versa (as shown on photo

below). Make sure that mounting holes are aligned.

STEP 4: ATTACHING BLOCK ON TO THE MOTHERBOARD

Prior to fastening the screws please make sure the mounting holes on the

motherboard’s circuit board are aligned with the water block.

A) Mosfet part: Use four M2,5x8 DIN 7985 with factory backplates. Tighten the

screws evenly. Do not forget to use one M2,5x4 DIN 7985 screw below the socket

backplate. Do not use excessive force when tightening the screws!

B) CPU part: Use four M4x8 DIN7984 with screws and washers.

Tighten the screws using enclosed 2.5mm allen key.

Use the enclosed screws and washers as shown in picture below:

For the EK-FB ASUS M8E Monoblock series water block to operate properly the G1/4

port nearest to the right edge of the water block MUST BE USED AS THE INLET

PORT. EK recommends the use of EK-ACF fittings. When using fittings other than EK-

ACF series please use hose clamps or appropriate substitute to secure the tubing to

the barb. The use of biocide containing and corrosion inhibiting coolant is always

recommended for any liquid cooling system.

3. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON MOTHERBOARD. Place thermal pads on PCB as

shown on the picture

PLEASE REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE FOIL FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE THERMAL

PADS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION!

Place 1mm thermal pads in larger strips over

marked areas and make sure all mosfet chips

and inductor coils are covered.
