1. VGA RAM Heatsink Attachment
Remove the film from the Thermal Tapes on the bottom of the
RAM Heatsinks and attach the Heatsinks on the VGA RAM.
Note 1) If Thermal Grease or other residue remains on the
RAM, then the Thermal Tapes will not stick. Clean the
surface of the RAM with acetone or alcohol before
attaching the RAM Heatsinks.
Note 2) The bonding strength of the Thermal Tapes reaches
90% after 24 hours of curing. Do not exert excessive
force on the RAM Heatsinks during this period.
Note 3) Thermal Tapes are not reusable because they lose
adhesiveness after their initial application. Purchase
new Thermal Tapes if the RAM Heatsinks need to be
reattached.
2. Thermal Grease Application
Clean the contact surface of the VGA Chipset completely.
Apply Thermal Grease on the VGA Chipset that makes
contact with the base of the VGA Cooler.
3. Nipple Installation on the Retention Guide
Install the short end of the Nipples on the VGA Coolers
Retention Guide after determining the appropriate Installation
Holes.
(Note) The Nipples MUST be tightened by hand. Using tools to
tighten the Nipples may damage the tips of the Nipples.
