Please note the installation of the product is intended to be undertaken

by an adequately trained and experienced person. You are installing the

product at your own risk. If you are not properly trained or experienced

or feel unsure about the installation procedure, please refrain from

installing the product yourself and contact our tech support for

assistance. We disclaim our liability for any damages to the product as

well as incidental, consequential, or indirect damages incurred due to

improper or inappropriate installation.

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

Carefully read the manual before beginning 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

Place your graphics card on the flat surface and carefully remove

the stock cooler. Do not forget to unplug all the LED and fan

connectors. Pay attention to the following steps when installing

the EK-Quantum Vector2Trio RTX 3090 Ti water block onto your

graphics card.

STEP 2

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.

PREPARING THE WATER BLOCK FOR INSTALLATION

STEP 1

Unscrew seven (7) Screws AX1 M2.5 x 8. Remove the backplate

together with Screws and backplate standoffs. Standoffs must

stay on Screws AX1 M2.5 x 8. Remove cardboard. Save the

backplate for later steps.

Do not remove standoffs from screws! In case the

standoff detaches from the screw, replace it with a

spare one. When replacing the standoff make sure

that you screw it on the AX1 M2.5 x 8 screw. Do

not push the standoff onto the screw AX1 M2.5 x 8!

STEP 1

For this step, you will need:

CUTTING AND PLACING THERMAL PADS

STEP 1

Your EK-Quantum Vector2Trio RTX 3090 Ti D-RGB block comes with

Thermal Pads that have to be cut into smaller pieces to cover all the

VRM components. EK made sure to provide you with more than an

adequate quantity of Thermal Pads to complete this Step.

CAUTION: You must remove the protective foil from both

sides of the thermal pad before installation.

Replacement thermal pads:

Once cut to the size, Thermal Pads should be placed on the block, as

shown in the picture.

Before attaching the PCB to the Water Block, make sure

all the Thermal Pads are placed correctly!

Thermal Grease

STEP 1

Apply the enclosed EK-TIM Ectotherm thermal grease (thermal

compound) on the GPU heat spreader – IHS – as shown in the

image. The layer of the thermal compound must be thin and even

over the entire surface of the IHS.

The excessive or uneven application of thermal grease

may lead to poor performance!

APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND

For this step, you will need:

STEP 1

ATTACHING THE WATER BLOCK

STEP 1

Carefully position the water block with preinstalled standoffs on

the graphics card. During this process, make sure you have aligned

mounting holes of the PCB with holes of the water block.

Pay attention not to use too much force when pressing the

block down to the PCB since chip dies are prone to cracking.

Before attaching the PCB to the Water Block, make sure

all the Thermal Pads are placed correctly!
