STEP 11: PUMP TOP ORIENTATION
Lift the top, rotate it until the EK logo is oriented
correctly, and put it back down. The magnets
will hold the top in place.
Congratulations! You have successfully
installed your EK-Nucleus AIO.
OPTIONAL STEP! APPLYING THE
THERMAL COMPOUND
This step is relevant only in the case of a
second installation of AIO or if you have
damaged the pre-applied paste on the
backside of the pump unit. For the fi rst
installation, you don't need to apply the
additional thermal compound to the CPU's
contact surface.
Wipe the CPU's contact surface (using a non–
abrasive cloth or Q-tip, as shown in sample
photo). On a clean IHS, apply a line of thermal
compound and spread it over the whole
CPU heat spreader (IHS) with a credit card or
equivalent.
For help on how to control the D-RGB lights,
please refer to your motherboard instructions.
