This product is intended for installation by expert users only. Please

consult with a qualiﬁed technician. Improper installation may result

in damage to your equipment. EK assumes no liability whatsoever,

expressed or implied, for the use of this product or its installation. The

following instructions are subject to change without notice. Please,

read the manual carefully before starting the installation process. For

updates, you can visit our ofﬁcial website www.ekwb.com.

Before you start using this product, please follow these basic guidelines:

Carefully read the manual before beginning with the

installation process.

Remove your graphics card from the computer for the safest

mounting process to prevent any possible damage to your

GPU or its circuit board (PCB).

The EK 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.

The use of corrosion inhibiting coolants is always

recommended for liquid cooling systems and mandatory for

nickel-plated water blocks!

Do not use pure distilled water! For best results, EK

recommends the use of EK-CryoFuel coolants!

To reach optimal performance, make sure to thoroughly

bleed the air out of your water block!

PREPARING THE GRAPHICS CARD

STEP 1

REMOVING THE STOCK COOLER

Use the Phillips head screwdriver to remove the three screws from the

GPU bracket side and six screws from the side of the backplate.

After removing all nine screws (marked in the picture), carefully detach

the PCB with the backplate from the stock cooler and disconnect two

cables connected to the PCB.

Always remove the stock cooler slowly - it might be ﬁrmly

glued to the PCB with thermal pads.

For this step, you will need:

Phillips Head Screwdriver Torx T6 Screwdriver

STEP 1

- 9 -

STEP 2

REMOVING THE STOCK BACKPLATE

Use the Phillips head screwdriver to remove the two screws attaching

the GeForce® RTX™ plate to the backplate.

Remove the nine screws with Phillips and Torx head screwdrivers

and carefully detach the stock backplate from the PCB.

TERMINAL

BADGE

PREPARING THE WATER BLOCK FOR INSTALLATION

STEP 1

First, remove the terminal badge which is attached to the terminal with

two magnets. Under the badge, unscrew three (3) screws M4 x 20

DIN7984. Additional six (6) screws M3 x 10 AX1 need to be removed

as shown in the image.

DO NOT REMOVE THE UPPER TERMINAL BADGE!

STEP 1

For this step, you will need:

Phillips Head Screwdriver

STEP 3

CLEANING THE PCB

Wipe off the remains of the original thermal compound using a

nonabrasive cloth or Q-tip, as shown in the sample image, until the

components and circuit board are completely clean. EK recommends

the use of denatured alcohol for removing TIM leftovers. After that,

remove all remaining stock thermal pads from the PCB.
