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: GENERAL INFORMATION Sample photo of ASUS Maximus VIII IMPACT motherboard

STEP 1: PREPARING YOUR MOTHERBOARD

REMOVING STOCK COOLER. Remove all encircled screws. There are 2 screws on the back of the power supply board that needs to be removed in order to remove the

factory installed MOSFET heat pipe cooling solution with backplate.

STEP 2: PREPARING YOUR 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.

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 M3x6 DIN7985 and PVC washers with Factory

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

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

Tighten the screws in cross pattern using enclosed 2.5mm allen key and philips

cooling system.
