4. Pakkens indhold

Kontroller venligst, at alle komponenter er til stede i din pakke:

• GAMDIAS Boreas E1-410 CPU Air Cooler (Heatsink with pre-attached fan)
• Universal Mounting Kit (for Intel and AMD sockets)
• Termisk pasta
• Brugervejledning (dette dokument)

5. Installationsvejledning

Follow these steps carefully to install your GAMDIAS Boreas E1-410 CPU Air Cooler. Ensure your system is powered off and unplugged before beginning.

5.1. Forberedelse

1. Ensure your CPU is correctly installed in its socket on the motherboard.
2. Clean the CPU surface of any old thermal paste using isopropyl alcohol.
3. Apply a small, pea-sized amount of thermal paste to the center of the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).

5.2. Montering af monteringsbeslag

Refer to the included universal mounting kit for specific instructions for your Intel or AMD motherboard socket. Typically, this involves:

1. Attaching the appropriate backplate to the rear of the motherboard.
2. Securing the standoffs or mounting posts to the front of the motherboard around the CPU socket.

5.3. Heatsink Mounting

1. Carefully place the heatsink onto the CPU, aligning the mounting holes on the heatsink base with the standoffs/mounting posts.
2. Using the provided screws, secure the heatsink to the mounting hardware. Tighten screws in a diagonal pattern (e.g., top-left, bottom-right, top-right, bottom-left) until snug. Do not overtighten.

5.4. Fan Attachment

The 120mm fan is typically pre-attached. If not, or if you need to re-attach it:

1. Ensure the fan is oriented to blow air towards the rear of your PC case for optimal airflow.
2. Use the provided fan clips to secure the fan to the heatsink fins.

5.5. Kabelforbindelser

1. Connect the 4-pin PWM fan cable from the cooler to the 'CPU_FAN' header on your motherboard.
2. Connect the 3-pin 5V ARGB cable from the cooler to an available '5V ADD_HEADER' or 'ARGB_HEADER' on your motherboard. Tilslut ikke til en 12V RGB-header, da dette vil beskadige LED'erne.

6. Betjeningsvejledning

6.1. Ventilatorhastighedskontrol (PWM)

The 120mm fan supports Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), allowing your motherboard to dynamically adjust fan speed based on CPU temperature. This ensures efficient cooling when needed and quieter operation during lighter loads. You can typically configure fan curves in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or through manufacturer-provided software.

6.2. ARGB-lysstyring

The cooler's ARGB lighting can be controlled via your motherboard's 5V ARGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync). Install the relevant software for your motherboard to customize lighting effects and colors.

7. Vedligeholdelse

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and performance of your CPU cooler:

• Fjernelse af støv: Rengør kølepladens finner og ventilatorblade regelmæssigt for støv med trykluft eller en blød børste. Sørg for, at ventilatoren ikke drejer under rengøringen.
• Termisk pasta: If you remove the cooler for any reason, it is recommended to clean off the old thermal paste and apply new thermal paste before re-installation.

8. Fejlfinding

• Ventilatoren drejer ikke: Check if the 4-pin PWM fan cable is securely connected to the 'CPU_FAN' header on the motherboard. Verify fan settings in BIOS/UEFI.
• Ingen ARGB-belysning: Ensure the 3-pin 5V ARGB cable is correctly connected to a 5V ARGB header (not 12V RGB). Check your motherboard's ARGB software for lighting control.
• Høje CPU-temperaturer: Confirm that the heatsink is securely mounted and making proper contact with the CPU. Ensure thermal paste was applied correctly. Verify fan orientation for proper airflow (blowing towards the rear/top of the case). Check fan speed settings in BIOS/UEFI.
