Ekwb EK-FB EVGA X58 LE Guida

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.ekwaterblocks.com for updates.

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

The barb hose fittings require only a small amount of force to screw them in; otherwise the high flow fittings might break. These fittings do not need to be tightened with much force because the

liquid seal is made using o-rings.

STEP 1: GENERAL INFORMATION Sample photo of EVGA X58 LE PCB design

STEP 2: PREPARING YOUR MOTHERBOARD

1. REMOVING STOCK COOLER. Remove all encircled screws. All stock

cooler assembly screws should be removed. There are 6 screws on the back of

the motherboard.

2. CLEANING THE PCB. Carefully detach the original stock cooler after removing all screws

securing it to the board. Wipe off the remains (by using non–abrasive cloth or qtip, as shown

on sample photo) of the original thermal compound until the components and circuit board are

completely clean. EKWB does not recommend using any liquids for removing paste.

3. APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND

Apply thermal compound: lightly coat the Northbridge with for example

Céramique™ thermal compound. Follow this link http://www.arctic-

cooling.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=39_&mID=127&language=en for

detailed instructions. EKWB recommends non-conductive MX-2, which should

be applied in cross form for best performance (see sample picture).

4. CUTTING THERMAL PADS. One thermal pad (90x15x1 mm) and 2 (30x25x0,5) thermal

pads are enclosed with your water block. Please cut thermal pads as shown bellow.

(WARNING: DIMENSIONS ON PICTURES BELLOW ARE SCALED!)

5. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON MOTHERBOARD. Place thermal pads you cut on PCB as shown on picture bellow. (PLEASE REMOVE FOIL OF THERMAL PADS

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION.)

STEP 3: PREPARING YOUR WATER BLOCK

1. ATTACHING STANDOFFS. Apply small amount of thermal grease around mounting

holes and place acetal standoffs (thickness 2,5 mm) so the holes are concentric.

Thermal paste provides enough adhesive force for standoffs to stay in a place.

2. PLACING BLOCK OVER GPU. Place the motherboard on the inverted water block or

vice versa and attach it with enclosed screws as shown. Make sure that mounting

holes are aligned.

STEP 4: ATTACHING BLOCK TO MOTHERBOARD

1. MOUNTING THE BLOCK.

For

perfect thermal contact, the block does not use a spring mounting system; therefore when attaching be very careful to tighten all screws equally.

Tightening the screws beginning in the center of the block near the Northbridge, and continue evenly outwards. Do not use too much pressure

screws (be very careful around Southbridge and use small amount of tightening force, since block has no standoffs. EKWB recommends

tightening screws around Southbridge in the end.), because motherboard might

bend and either cause bad contact with water block, or break

a connection on the board.

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

STEP 5: CHECKING FOR CONTACTS

Temporarily r

emove the water block to check for uniform surface contact between the block and the components. Note the pattern of contact on a piece of paper. Then repeat

steps 3 and 4 to reattach the block applying more or less pressure to the areas where you have found it necessary.

STEP 6: POSITIONING FITTINGS AND CONNECTING TO WATER CIRCUIT

1.Screw in fittings as shown in photo, attach the liquid cooling tubes and connect the water-block(s) into the cooling circuit. The EK-FB EVGA X58 LE series are usually sold with

high flow fittings. To ensure that the tubes are securely attached to the barb fittings, please use hose clamps or an appropriate substitute. The use of an algaecide is always

recommended for any liquid cooling system.

You can use any hole as an inlet/outlet hole.
