Ceck compatibility and prepare graphics card
Ceck compatibility
Before starting the cooler assembly, compare your card with the pictures in
our configurator. To do so, visit https://www.hwconfig.com and search for
your graphics card or cooler model. For a definitiv identification, you can
also compare the PCB number. The cooler was designed for a special PCB layout.
Occasionally, graphics card manufacturers may revise the design of their card
slightly, causing the cooler not to fit on later models. During assembly,
please make sure taller parts have enough space around them and that the
cooler does not damage your graphics card. Alphacool International GmbH is not
liable for assembly errors occurring due to negligence, such as selecting an
incompatible cooler.
Prepare graphics card
Put the hardware on an antistatic mat. Begin dismantling the original
cooler. Depending on the structure of the cooler, remove the screws at the
back of the card and carefully unhook the fan connector first. If the original
cooler uses thermal glue, extreme care should be taken as you can easily
damage parts. Pick up all the items carefully. Next, clean the hardware of
thermal paste or pad residues with a solvent (e.g. isopropanol alcohol).
