AMD Wraith Stealth CPU-køler brugermanual

1. Produktet er slutview

The AMD Wraith Stealth CPU Cooler is designed to provide efficient cooling for AMD AM4 socket processors. It features an aluminum heatsink with a pre-applied thermal paste and a 3.5-inch (90mm) fan. This cooler is a reliable solution for maintaining optimal CPU temperatures, ensuring stable system performance.

• Supports Motherboard Socket: AM4
• Aluminum heatsink with pre-applied thermal paste
• Direct screw mounting to socket AM4 motherboard
• 3.5-inch 90mm fan
• 4-pin PWM power connector (approximately 9-inch length)

2. Opsætning og installation

Proper installation is crucial for optimal cooling performance. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Forbered bundkortet: Ensure your motherboard has the AM4 socket and the original CPU retention module (backplate) is in place. The cooler utilizes this existing backplate for secure mounting.
2. Placering af køleren: Align the four spring-loaded screws on the cooler's base with the corresponding holes on the motherboard's backplate. The cooler comes with pre-applied thermal paste on its base, so no additional thermal compound is needed.
3. Fastgør køleren: Gently press down on the cooler to engage the screws with the backplate. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to tighten the screws in a diagonal pattern (e.g., top-left, bottom-right, top-right, bottom-left) until they are snug. Do not overtighten. This ensures even pressure distribution and proper contact with the CPU.
4. Tilslut strøm: Locate the 4-pin PWM fan header on your motherboard (often labeled "CPU_FAN"). Connect the cooler's 4-pin power cable to this header. This allows the motherboard to control the fan speed based on CPU temperature.

Note: The installation process involves handling delicate computer components. If you are unsure, consult a qualified technician.

3. Betjeningsvejledning

Once installed, the AMD Wraith Stealth CPU Cooler operates automatically. The 4-pin PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) connector allows your motherboard to dynamically adjust the fan speed based on the CPU's temperature. This ensures efficient cooling when needed and quieter operation during lighter loads.

• Automatic Fan Control: The fan speed will increase as the CPU temperature rises and decrease when the CPU cools down.
• BIOS/UEFI-indstillinger: You can typically monitor CPU temperatures and fan speeds through your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or dedicated software provided by your motherboard manufacturer. Advanced users may adjust fan curves in these settings, though the default automatic control is usually sufficient.

4. Vedligeholdelse

Regelmæssig vedligeholdelse er med til at sikre din CPU-kølers levetid og optimale ydeevne.

• Fjernelse af støv: Periodically inspect the heatsink fins and fan blades for dust accumulation. Dust can impede airflow and reduce cooling efficiency. Use compressed air to gently blow dust away from the heatsink and fan. Hold the fan blades in place while using compressed air to prevent over-spinning and potential damage to the fan bearings.
• Termisk pasta: The cooler comes with pre-applied thermal paste. If you ever remove the cooler, it is recommended to clean off the old thermal paste from both the CPU and the cooler's base and apply a fresh layer of high-quality thermal paste before reinstallation.

5. Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues with your CPU cooler, consider the following common problems and solutions:

• Høje CPU-temperaturer:
  • Check if the cooler is securely mounted and making proper contact with the CPU. Ensure all four screws are tightened evenly.
  • Verify that the fan is spinning. If not, check the 4-pin power connection to the motherboard.
  • Rengør eventuelt støv fra kølepladen og ventilatoren.
  • Sørg for tilstrækkelig luftgennemstrømning i computerens kabinet.
• Fan Not Spinning or Erratic Speed:
  • Confirm the 4-pin power cable is correctly plugged into the "CPU_FAN" header on the motherboard.
  • Check BIOS/UEFI settings for fan control options. Ensure PWM control is enabled if available.
• For meget ventilatorstøj:
  • Dust accumulation can cause noise; clean the fan and heatsink.
  • Ensure no cables are obstructing the fan blades.
  • If the noise is a grinding or rattling sound, the fan bearing might be failing, and replacement may be necessary.
