OPTIONAL STEP! APPLYING THE
THERMAL COMPOUND
This step is relevant only in the case of a
second installation of AIO or if you have
damaged the pre-applied paste on the
backside of the pump unit! For the fi rst
installation, you don't need to apply the
additional thermal compound to the CPU's
contact surface!
Wipe the CPU's contact surface (using a
non-abrasive cloth or a Q-tip as shown in the
sample image). On a clean IHS, apply a line
of thermal compound and spread it over the
whole CPU heat spreader (IHS) with a credit
card or something similar.
STEP 1: ATTACHING MOUNTING
SCREWS (LGA-20XX)
LGA-20xx (2066 / 2011 V3 / 2011) socket
motherboards do not require backplate
installation. Install 4x LGA-20XX mounting thumb
screws into M4 threaded stubs on the integrated
latch mechanism (ILM) of the LGA-20XX socket.
Thumb screws are to be installed without the
use of tools (i.e. pliers).
Continue installation by following
the instructions from Step 4 on
page 6
STEP 1: REMOVING THE ORIGINAL
PLASTIC HOLD-DOWN CLAMPS (AMD)
Using Philips-head screwdriver, remove the 4
UNC 6-32 screws securing the original plastic
hold-down clamps around the socket as
shown in the image. Keep the original AMD®
backplate and remove the hold-down clamps
to store them away. See the image for further

STEP 2: ATTACHING MOUNTING
SCREWS (AMD)
Install 4x mounting thumb screw for AMD
AM4 socket onto your motherboard. The
screws are to be installed without the use of
tools (i.e. pliers).
STEP 3: INSTALLING THE FANS TO
THE RADIATOR (AMD)
Attach the fans (2x or 3x, depending on the
AIO version) to the radiator with the UNC 6-32
x 30mm screws.
STEP 4: REMOVING THE COLD-PLATE
PROTECTIVE COVER (AMD)
Remove the protective cover from
backside of the pump unit. It is there only to
prevent the damage of the cold-plate and the
pre-applied thermal compound that is on the
cold-plate.
When removing the protective cover and
proceeding with installation be careful not
to touch or damage the pre-applied thermal
compound!
