ELITE
PERFORMANCE LIQUID CPU COOLER
Note: Most newer PC cases include a CPU cut-out to allow access to the
bottom of the motherboard.
If your case does not include a cut-out, you will need to remove your
motherboard from the case prior to installation. ELITE Series coolers come
with the Intel mounting bracket pre-installed on the pump for quick
installation.

FAQ
1. How do I know the direction of the air flow of the fan?
An arrow located on the side of the fan indicates the direction of air flow.
2. Can I reuse the pre-applied thermal paste on the cooler for re- installation?
Re-installation of the cooler will require you to clean off the pre-applied thermal paste and apply an aftermarket paste.
3. What orientation should I install my radiator?
The best way to install a radiator is with the tubes on the bottom of the case, though you can install it with the tubes in any position, including an inverted radiator, as long as the highest point in the radiator is visibly higher than the CPU pump.
4. My cooler and fans are blinking red or not functioning. What do I do?
Please double-check all connections between the cooler and the fans. Ensure that the cooler is updated to the most recent firmware via iCUE. If this does not resolve your problems, please open a support ticket at support.corsair.com or contact our customer support team for further troubleshooting and assistance.
