2.3.6 Thermal Armor for ASUS SABERTOOTH Z77
The Thermal Armor for ASUS SABERTOOTH Z77 consists of a rear I/O cover fan, and
a cover fan assembly, providing effective dissipation of the heat generated from the
motherboard components. To ensure the most optimum heat dissipation, follow the
instruction below to install the I/O cover fan to the rear I/O cover.
Installing the rst accessory fan:
1. Remove the screw on the rear I/O
cover, and then remove the lid to
show the fan socket.
2. Secure the accessory fan to the
designated fan slot of the I/O fan
cover lid using the two bundled short
screws. The fan cable must be on
the bottom right corner opposite to
the installed I/O cover fan lid, and the
back of the fan faces the screw hole
of the I/O fan cover lid.
3. Remove the release paper, and stick
the adhesive sponge on the opposite
side of the installed I/O fan cover.
• The sponge acts as a ller
between the PC board and the
fan.
• The sponge is not needed
if you choose to install the
40mm fan.
• Use the bundled 40mm I/O
cover fan lid if you want to install
a 40mm fan.
• The arrow markings pointing
in one direction determine the
fan’s back part and the direction
of the airow.
