- Remove the existing cooler or prepare the CPU socket area for installation by cleaning the surface and ensuring a clean thermal paste state if you’re re-pasting.
- Attach the backplate and mount brackets as required for your motherboard socket type. Secure the radiator to the case in a position that maximizes airflow and avoids cable interference with fans or other components.
- Mount the three ARGB fans onto the 360mm radiator, then connect the fans to the appropriate fan headers or controller. Attach the pump assembly to the CPU socket area and secure the water block firmly according to the included instructions.
- Connect ARGB cables to the motherboard’s ARGB header (or compatible controller) and power cables to the appropriate 12V rail or controller. After wiring is complete, tidy cables to ensure unobstructed airflow and boot the system to verify pump activity and lighting. Use Aura Sync or your motherboard software to customize lighting effects to match your build.
