Installation Procedure
※
The following installation sequence MUST be followed.
(1. VGA RAM Heatsink Attachment →2. Thermal Grease Application →3. Nipple Installation on Retention Guide →
4. VGA Cooler Installation → 5. Spring Insertion on the Fixing Nut → 6. Fixing Nut Assembly on VGA Cooler’s
Nipple →7. VGA Card Installation →8. Fan Power Cable Connection)
1. VGA RAM Heatsink Attachment
Remove the film from the Thermal Tapes on the bottom of the
RAM Heatsinks and attach the Heatsinks on the VGA RAM.
RAM
Note 1) If Thermal Grease or other residue remains on the
Heatsink
RAM, then the Thermal Tapes will not stick. Clean the
surface of the RAM with acetone or alcohol before
attaching the RAM Heatsinks.
Note 2) The bonding strength of the Thermal Tapes reaches
VGA
RAM
90% after 24 hours of curing. Do not exert excessive
force on the RAM Heatsinks during this period.
Note 3) Thermal Tapes are not reusable because they lose
adhesiveness after their initial application. Purchase
new Thermal Tapes if the RAM Heatsinks need to be
reattached.
Thermal Tape
2. Thermal Grease Application
Film
Clean the contact surface of the VGA Chipset completely.
Apply Thermal Grease on the VGA Chipset that makes
contact with the base of the VGA Cooler.

3. Nipple Installation on the Retention Guide
Install the short end of the Nipples on the VGA Cooler’s
Retention Guide after determining the appropriate Installation
Holes.
(Note) The Nipples MUST be tightened by hand. Using tools to
tighten the Nipples may damage the tips of the Nipples.
※Please check the table below to identify the correct Nipple

4. VGA Cooler Installation
①Insert the Rubber Rings into the VGA Cooler’s Nipples.
②Install the Nipple-attached VGA Cooler on the VGA card’s Mounting Holes.
※The VGA Chipset MUST be positioned on the center of the VGA Cooler’s base.
③Simultaneously hold the VGA Cooler and the VGA card with one hand, then flip the VGA card so that its rear-
side is facing upwards.
(Note)
Make sure that the VGA Chipset and the VGA Cooler’s base do not get detached while simultaneously flipping
the VGA Cooler and the VGA card.

5. Spring Insertion on the Fixing Nut
Slowly turn the Spring in counter clockwise motion so that the
Spring is correctly attached to the Fixing Nut.
Note 1) The ends of the Springs are of different diameters.
Install the Spring end with the smaller diameter on the
Fixing Nut as shown in the diagram.

6. Fixing Nut Installation on the Nipples
①Place a PVC Washer over each Nipple on the back side of
the VGA card.
Nipple
②Slightly screw each of the four Spring-attached Fixing Nuts
onto each Nipple, then tighten each Fixing Nut one rotation
at a time until all are completely tightened.
③Interference may occur between the Fixing Nuts of the two
VGA coolers when using an SLI or CrossFire VGA card
setup. In such a case, use the enclosed Fixing Nut for SLI
/CrossFire for assembly.

Note 1) Fully tightening one Fixing Nut at a time may result in
damaging the VGA chipset. Please tighten each Fixing
Nut one rotation at a time until all are completely
tightened.
Note 2) Make sure that the VGA Cooler’s base and the VGA
Chipset are completely in contact with each other.
Note 3) Make sure that the VGA Cooler does not interfere with
the VGA card’s capacitors and other components.
