Opsætning og installation
Follow these steps carefully to install your Thermalright Frozen Prism 240 Black ARGB Liquid CPU Water Cooler. Refer to the video for visual guidance.
Video: Thermalright Frozen Prism CPU Cooler Series Installation Guide. This video demonstrates the step-by-step process for installing the liquid CPU cooler on various motherboard sockets.
1. Forberedelse af bundkort
For AMD AM5/AM4 Motherboards:
- Remove the motherboard's plastic CPU retention brackets. Keep the original backplate as it will be reused.
- Install the four red standoffs into the motherboard's backplate screw holes.
- Place the two metal AMD brackets onto the red standoffs.
- Secure the metal brackets using the provided screws with a screwdriver.
For Intel LGA115X/1200 Motherboards:
- Assemble the Intel backplate by inserting the four backplate screws through the inner mounting holes. Secure them with the blue washers.
- Install the assembled Intel backplate from the backside of the motherboard, ensuring the screws pass through the motherboard mounting holes.
- Install the four blue standoffs onto the backplate screws from the front side of the motherboard.
- Place the two Intel brackets onto the standoffs, aligning the backplate screws through the LGA115X/1200 holes on the brackets.
- Fastgør beslagene med de medfølgende møtrikker.
For Intel LGA1700 Motherboards:
- Assemble the Intel backplate by inserting the four backplate screws through the outer mounting holes. Secure them with the blue washers.
- Install the assembled Intel backplate from the backside of the motherboard, ensuring the screws pass through the motherboard mounting holes.
- Install the four blue standoffs onto the backplate screws from the front side of the motherboard.
- Place the two Intel brackets onto the standoffs, aligning the backplate screws through the LGA1700 holes on the brackets.
- Fastgør beslagene med de medfølgende møtrikker.
2. Waterblock and Radiator Installation
- Apply a small amount of the included thermal compound to the center of the CPU's Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS).
- Carefully remove the protective sticker from the coldplate of the waterblock.
- Position the waterblock onto the CPU, ensuring the waterblock bracket nuts align with the screws on the installed motherboard brackets.
- Tighten the nuts in a diagonal pattern until the waterblock is securely mounted. Do not overtighten.
- Install the radiator into your PC case. Typically, this is done at the top or front of the case. Use the short screws to secure the radiator to the case.
3. Kabelforbindelser
- Connect the 4-pin PWM headers from both fans to the included fan hub.
- Connect the fan hub's main 4-pin PWM header to the CPU_FAN socket on your motherboard.
- Connect the waterblock's 4-pin PWM header to either the CPU_OPT or WATER_PUMP socket on your motherboard to power the pump.
- Connect the 3-pin ARGB headers from the fans to the ARGB splitter cable to sync lighting effects.
- Connect the ARGB splitter cable's 3-pin ARGB header to the +5V ARGB lighting socket on your motherboard.

Betjeningsvejledning
The Thermalright Frozen Prism 240 Black ARGB Liquid CPU Water Cooler is designed for efficient and quiet operation with customizable lighting.
PWM-blæserstyring:
The included TL-E12 series fans feature PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) temperature control. This allows the CPU fan to automatically adjust its speed based on the CPU temperature, optimizing cooling performance and minimizing noise. Ensure the fan hub is connected to the CPU_FAN header on your motherboard for this functionality.
ARGB Lighting Synchronization:
The ARGB lighting on both the CPU fans and the waterblock can be synchronized with your motherboard's 5V 3-pin ARGB header. This enables control over 16 million colors and various lighting effects through your motherboard's software. Connect the ARGB cables as described in the installation section to utilize this feature.
Waterblock Top Cover Adjustment:
The waterblock features a magnetic removable top cover. This allows for easy adjustment of the waterblock's orientation to ensure the Thermalright logo is correctly aligned after installation, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your build.

Opretholdelse
Regular maintenance helps ensure the optimal performance and longevity of your liquid CPU cooler.
- Støvrensning: Rengør kølerribberne og ventilatorbladene med jævne mellemrum for at forhindre støvophobning, som kan hæmme luftstrømmen og reducere køleeffektiviteten. Brug trykluft eller en blød børste.
- Tjek slanger: Inspect the water tubes for any signs of kinks, leaks, or damage. Ensure they are not pressing against other components that could cause wear over time.
- Ventilatorbetjening: Listen for any unusual noises from the fans or pump. If a fan is making excessive noise or not spinning, check its connections.
- Termisk pasta: While not frequently required, if you remove the waterblock for any reason, it is recommended to clean off the old thermal paste and apply a fresh layer before reinstallation.
Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues with your Thermalright Frozen Prism 240 Black ARGB Liquid CPU Water Cooler, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Høje CPU-temperaturer | Insufficient thermal paste, improper waterblock contact, dust buildup on radiator, fans not spinning. | Reapply thermal paste, ensure waterblock is securely mounted, clean radiator and fans, check fan connections. |
| Fans Not Spinning / No ARGB Lighting | Loose cable connections, incorrect motherboard headers, faulty fan/ARGB controller. | Check all 4-pin PWM and 3-pin ARGB connections, ensure they are connected to the correct motherboard headers (+5V ARGB, CPU_FAN, CPU_OPT/WATER_PUMP). |
| Pump Noise / No Flow | Air bubbles in the loop, pump not receiving power, faulty pump. | Gently shake the case to dislodge air bubbles, check pump's 4-pin PWM connection to CPU_OPT/WATER_PUMP header. |
