ตรวจสอบว่าส่วนประกอบทั้งหมดอยู่ครบและไม่ได้รับความเสียหายก่อนดำเนินการติดตั้ง

• 1x Alphacool Core RX 9070 XT Taichi GPU Water Block
• 1x แผ่นหลัง
• สกรูยึดและอุปกรณ์เสริม
• Thermal pads and thermal paste

4. การตั้งค่าและการติดตั้ง

This section outlines the steps required to install the GPU water block onto your graphics card. It is recommended to perform this installation on a clean, static-free surface.

4.1 การเตรียมตัว

• Gather necessary tools: Phillips head screwdriver, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free cloth.
• Carefully remove your graphics card from your computer.
• Place the graphics card on an anti-static mat.

4.2 Removing the Stock Cooler

• Unscrew all mounting screws securing the stock cooler to the GPU PCB. Pay attention to any hidden screws.
• Gently detach the stock cooler, being careful of any fan or RGB cables connected to the PCB. Disconnect these cables.
• Clean the GPU die and memory chips thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free cloth to remove all traces of old thermal paste and pads.

4.3 Applying Thermal Pads and Paste

• Refer to the included diagram (if provided) for thermal pad placement on the GPU PCB. Apply thermal pads to the VRMs and memory modules as indicated.
• Apply a small amount of thermal paste to the center of the GPU die. A pea-sized or line method is generally recommended.

4.4 Mounting the Water Block

• Carefully align the water block with the mounting holes on the GPU PCB.
• Gently lower the water block onto the GPU, ensuring proper contact with the GPU die and thermal pads.
• Secure the water block using the provided screws. Tighten screws in a diagonal pattern to ensure even pressure, but do not overtighten.

4.5 Installing the Backplate

• Place the aluminum backplate onto the rear of the GPU PCB, aligning it with the mounting holes.
• Secure the backplate using the designated screws.

4.6 Connecting aRGB Lighting

• Locate the 3-pin JST connector for the digital aRGB LEDs on the water block.
• Connect this cable to a compatible 3-pin 5V aRGB header on your motherboard or a dedicated aRGB controller.

4.7 Integrating into the Water Cooling Loop

• Install appropriate G1/4" fittings (not included) into the four connection ports on the water block.
• Connect the water block to your existing or new water cooling loop using tubing. Ensure proper flow direction if specified by your loop design.
• Once the loop is complete, fill it with coolant and perform a leak test for at least 24 hours before powering on your system. Monitor for any drips or moisture.

5. คู่มือการใช้งาน

Once installed and leak-tested, the Alphacool Core RX 9070 XT Taichi GPU Water Block operates as part of your custom water cooling loop.

• การเพิ่มพลังระบบ: After successful leak testing, power on your system.
• Monitoring Temperatures: Use monitoring software to observe GPU temperatures under idle and load conditions. Optimal temperatures will vary based on your specific loop configuration and ambient conditions.
• aRGB Control: If connected to a motherboard header, use your motherboard's RGB software to customize the lighting effects. If connected to a controller, use the controller's interface.
• การไหลของน้ำหล่อเย็น: Ensure your pump is operating correctly and maintaining adequate coolant flow through the block.

6. การบำรุงรักษา

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your water cooling system.

• การเปลี่ยนน้ำหล่อเย็น: It is recommended to replace the coolant in your loop every 6-12 months, depending on the coolant type and system usage.
• การตรวจสอบระบบ: Periodically inspect tubing, fittings, and the water block for any signs of leaks, discoloration, or buildup.
• การทำความสะอาด: If buildup is observed within the water block (visible through the acrylic top), it may be necessary to disassemble the block for cleaning. Use distilled water and a soft brush. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• การกำจัดฝุ่น: Keep the surrounding area of your PC clean to prevent dust accumulation on radiators and fans, which can impact overall cooling efficiency.

7 การแก้ไขปัญหา

หัวข้อนี้จะกล่าวถึงปัญหาทั่วไปที่คุณอาจพบเจอ

• No Coolant Flow / Pump Not Working:
  • Check power connections to the pump.
  • Ensure the pump is properly primed and not air-locked.
  • Verify pump settings in BIOS or software.
• High GPU Temperatures:
  • Ensure the water block is properly mounted with even pressure.
