1. First insert the white plastic washers (11A/B) through the included
M2.5x7mm screws (12A/B), and then insert through the designated
holes on the back of the VGA card (10A/B). From the top side of
VGA card, insert the included black plastic washers (9A/B) through
the M2.5x7mm screws (12A/B) and then slightly tighten the screws
on the black metallic arm plate (7A/B).
Please Note:
* The side with the protruding screw hole on the black metallic arm
plate (7A/B) needs to be facing upward while the protruding screw
hole for 8A/B needs to be facing downward.
* For most video cards, using the 2 short black metallic arm plates(25mm in
length) should suffice unless the distance between the video card’s fixed holes
10 A and B are greater than the short black metallic plates in length. If so, consider
using the 2 long black metallic arm plates(33mm in length).
2. Put the black metallic retention mount (5) around the GPU (13),
please refer to Pic 3, and visually make sure that it is aligned and
centered to the GPU.
3. Using the included M2.5x4mm screws (3A/B), slightly tighten the
black metallic arm plate underneath the long oval shaped slot (6A/B)
on the black metallic retention mount.
Please note:
* The protruding screw holes (8A/B) need to be facing downward.
4. Slightly tighten the black metallic retention mount and the black
metallic arm plate. Make sure not to screw in too tight as you need to
align the square shaped opening on the black metallic retention
mount to the center of the GPU and then use the M2.5x4mm screws
(3A/B) and M2.7X7mm screws (12A/B) to tighten.
5. Apply a thin layer of the thermal paste evenly on the protruding
square mount at the bottom of the heat sink (pic.4) as well as on the
GPU itself.
6. Put the heat sink on top of the VGA card, at the same time minding
the protruding square mount at the bottom of the heat sink as you
need to line up to fit through the square shaped opening on the black
metallic retention mount. Then align the four holes on the heat sink
(2A/B/C/D) to the 4 screw holes (5A/B/C/D) on the black metallic
retention mount. Finally, using the M3x5mm screws (1A/B/C/D) to
tighten and secure the heat sink on the black metallic retention
mount in a crisscross (diagonally corner to corner) sequence, i.e. 1A
- 1C and then 1B - 1D.
Important: Be sure to plug in the fan for the VGA before turning on the computer
