4. Installationsvejledning
Follow these steps carefully for proper installation. Refer to your motherboard and PC case manuals for specific guidance on component placement.
4.1. Prepare the Radiator and Fans
- Attach the two 120mm ARGB fans to the radiator using the provided screws. Ensure the fan airflow direction is appropriate for your case's cooling strategy (typically exhausting air out of the case).
- Connect the fan PWM and ARGB cables. The NovaPeak fans feature a modular cabling design for streamlined connectivity, allowing daisy-chaining.

4.2. Install the Radiator
- Mount the radiator assembly into your PC case. Common mounting locations include the top or front of the case. Secure it with the appropriate screws.

4.3. Prepare the CPU and Pump
- Clean the CPU surface thoroughly to remove any old thermal paste or debris.
- Apply a small amount of thermal paste (pea-sized dot) to the center of the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).

4.4. Mount the Pump to the CPU
- Select the appropriate mounting bracket for your CPU socket (Intel or AMD).
- Attach the chosen bracket to the pump head.
- Carefully place the pump head onto the CPU, aligning the mounting holes.
- Secure the pump head to the motherboard using the provided screws and backplate (if required for your socket type). Tighten screws in a diagonal pattern until snug.
4.5. Kabelforvaltning
- Connect the pump's 3-pin power cable to an available fan header on your motherboard (often labeled 'AIO_PUMP' or 'CPU_OPT').
- Connect the ARGB cables from the fans and pump to the included ARGB controller.
- Connect the ARGB controller to a SATA power connector from your power supply and to a 3-pin 5V ARGB header on your motherboard (if you wish to control lighting via motherboard software).
- Organize all cables to ensure proper airflow and a clean build.
5. Betjening
Once installed, the NovaPeak 240 ARGB Liquid Cooler operates automatically based on your system's thermal load. The pump and fans will adjust their speed to maintain optimal CPU temperatures.
5.1. ARGB-lysstyring
The included ARGB controller allows you to cycle through 10 lighting modes, adjust brightness, and change light speed. Alternatively, if connected to a compatible motherboard ARGB header, you can control the lighting effects using your motherboard's synchronization software.

6. Vedligeholdelse
Regelmæssig vedligeholdelse sikrer optimal ydeevne og levetid for din væskekøler.
- Støvrensning: Rengør regelmæssigt køleribberne og ventilatorbladene for støv med trykluft eller en blød børste. Sørg for, at ventilatorerne ikke drejer under rengøringen.
- Inspektion af rør: Visually inspect the tubing for any signs of kinks, damage, or leaks.
- Pumpestøj: The pump is designed for quiet operation. If unusual noises occur, ensure proper mounting and contact support if the issue persists.
7. Fejlfinding
Hvis du støder på problemer, kan du se følgende almindelige problemer og løsninger:
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Høje CPU-temperaturer | Improper thermal paste application, loose pump mounting, insufficient airflow, pump failure. | Reapply thermal paste, check pump mounting, ensure fans are correctly oriented, verify pump is powered. |
| Ventilatorer drejer ikke / ARGB lyser ikke | Incorrect cable connections, faulty ARGB controller, insufficient power. | Check all PWM and ARGB connections, ensure SATA power is connected to the controller, test with different ARGB header if possible. |
| Usædvanlig pumpelyd | Air bubbles in the loop, pump malfunction. | Orient the radiator higher than the pump if possible to allow air to collect in the radiator. If noise persists, contact support. |
