Guia d'instal·lació

Passos previs a la instal·lació

1. Ensure your PC is powered off and unplugged.
2. Open your PC case and locate the CPU socket on your motherboard.
3. Remove any existing CPU cooler. Clean the CPU surface thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol.

Mounting the Water Block (Intel LGA 1700/1851)

The MAG CoreLiquid P240 supports Intel LGA 1700/1851 sockets out of the box. Follow these steps for installation:

1. Install the appropriate Intel backplate from the back side of the motherboard.
2. Secure the backplate with the correct standoffs on the front side of the motherboard.
3. Apply a small amount of thermal paste to the center of the CPU's Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS).
4. Remove the protective film from the water block's copper base.
5. Col·loqueu amb cura el bloc d'aigua a la CPU, alineant els forats de muntatge.
6. Tighten the four screws in a diagonal pattern until secure. Do not overtighten.

Mounting the Water Block (AMD AM5/AM4)

For AMD AM5/AM4 sockets, use the provided AMD mounting hardware. The stock AMD backplate should remain on the motherboard.

1. Remove the plastic retention brackets from the stock AMD CPU socket.
2. Install the AMD standoffs onto the stock backplate.
3. Apply thermal paste to the CPU IHS.
4. Remove the protective film from the water block's copper base.
5. Place the water block onto the CPU, aligning with the standoffs.
6. Secure the water block with the AMD thumb screws in a diagonal pattern until snug.

Radiator and Fan Installation

1. Determine the optimal mounting location for the 240mm radiator within your PC case (e.g., top, front, or side).
2. Mount the two 120mm PWM fans to the radiator using the included screws. Ensure the fan airflow direction is appropriate for your case's cooling strategy.
3. Secure the radiator assembly to your PC case using the longer screws provided.

Connexió per cable

1. Connect the pump's 4-pin connector to the 'CPU_FAN', 'CPU_OPT', 'AIO_PUMP', or 'W_PUMP' header on your motherboard. Consult your motherboard manual for the correct header.
2. Connect the 4-pin PWM fan cables to available 'CPU_FAN' or 'CPU_OPT' headers, or use a fan splitter if necessary.
3. If your model includes RGB lighting, connect the 3-pin 5V ARGB connector to the '5V D G' header on your motherboard for synchronization via MSI Center software.

Instruccions de funcionament

Once installed, power on your PC. The MAG CoreLiquid P240 will automatically begin cooling your CPU. Monitor CPU temperatures using system monitoring software (e.g., MSI Center, HWMonitor) to ensure optimal performance. The dual PWM fans will adjust their speed based on CPU temperature, providing efficient cooling while minimizing noise.

For models with RGB lighting, use the MSI Center software to customize lighting effects and synchronize them with other compatible components.

Manteniment

• Neteja de pols: Netegeu periòdicament les aletes del radiador i les aspes del ventilador amb aire comprimit per eliminar l'acumulació de pols. La pols pot impedir el flux d'aire i reduir l'eficiència de refrigeració.
• Inspecció de tubs: Regularly check the tubing for any signs of leaks, kinks, or damage. Ensure all connections are secure.
• Refrigerant: The liquid cooler is a sealed unit and does not require coolant refills. Do not attempt to open the unit.
• Soroll del ventilador: If fans become excessively noisy, check for dust accumulation or ensure they are securely mounted.

Resolució de problemes

• Temperatures altes de la CPU:
  • Ensure the water block is properly seated and tightened on the CPU.
  • Verify that thermal paste was applied correctly.
  • Check if fans are spinning and the pump is operating (you might feel a slight vibration).
  • Netegeu la pols de les aletes del radiador.
• No Fan/Pump Operation:
  • Confirm all power cables (4-pin PWM for fans/pump) are securely connected to the correct motherboard headers.
  • Check BIOS settings to ensure fan/pump headers are enabled and configured correctly.
• Sorolls inusuals:
  • A slight hum from the pump is normal. Excessive noise might indicate air bubbles in the loop (tilt your PC gently to help dislodge them) or a faulty pump/fan.
  • Ensure fans are not hitting any cables or case components.
