Configuració i instal·lació
Llista de verificació prèvia a la instal·lació
- Ensure your PC case has adequate clearance for the 420mm radiator (458mm L x 138mm W x 38mm H).
- Identify your CPU socket type (Intel LGA1700, 1200, 115X, 2011-3, 2066 or AMD AM5, AM4).
- Gather necessary tools: screwdriver, thermal paste (included).
Passos d'instal·lació
Follow these general steps for installation. Refer to the official user manual (PDF link provided in product data) for detailed, socket-specific instructions.
- Prepareu la placa base: Install the correct backplate and standoffs for your CPU socket.
- Aplicar pasta tèrmica: Apply a small amount of the included ARCTIC MX-4 thermal paste to the center of your CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
- Muntar la bomba/placa freda: Carefully place the pump/cold plate assembly onto the CPU, aligning it with the standoffs. Secure it with the provided screws.
- Muntar el radiador: Install the radiator and fans into your PC case. The Liquid Freezer II 420 is designed for front or top mounting depending on case compatibility. Ensure proper airflow direction.
- Connectar els cables: Connect the single 4-pin PWM cable from the pump to your motherboard's CPU_FAN or PUMP_FAN header. The fans are integrated into the sleeved tubing, simplifying cable management.
Instruccions de funcionament
Control PWM
The ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 420 utilizes Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for precise control over both the pump and fan speeds. This allows your motherboard to dynamically adjust cooling performance based on CPU temperature, optimizing for both cooling efficiency and noise levels.
VRM Fan Operation
An additional 40mm VRM fan is integrated into the pump housing. This fan provides supplementary cooling to the Voltage Regulator Modules (VRMs) on your motherboard, which can significantly reduce VRM temperatures, especially under heavy CPU loads. This fan also operates via PWM control.
Manteniment
Neteja de la pols
Regularly inspect the radiator fins and fans for dust accumulation. Use compressed air or a soft brush to gently remove dust from the radiator and fan blades. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
Sistema de refrigeració
The Liquid Freezer II is a closed-loop AIO system and does not require coolant refills or maintenance. Do not attempt to disassemble the unit or open the tubing, as this will void the warranty and may cause damage.
Resolució de problemes
Temperatures altes de la CPU
- Comprovació de la pasta tèrmica: Assegureu-vos que la pasta tèrmica s'hagi aplicat correctament i uniformement.
- Verify Mounting Pressure: Confirm the pump/cold plate is securely mounted to the CPU with adequate pressure.
- Fan/Pump Connection: Ensure the 4-pin PWM cable is properly connected to the motherboard's CPU_FAN or PUMP_FAN header. Check BIOS settings to ensure fan control is enabled.
- Flux d'aire: Verify that the radiator fans are oriented correctly for optimal airflow (intake or exhaust, depending on your case configuration).
Sorolls inusuals (gorgoteig, gemecs)
- Bombolles d'aire: Initial gurgling sounds are normal as air bubbles settle in the loop. This should subside within a few hours of operation.
- Orientació de la bomba: Ensure the pump is not the highest point in the loop to prevent air from accumulating in the pump.
- Soroll del ventilador: Check if any cables are obstructing fan blades.
