- Confirm the exact socket kit, case clearance, board layout, mounting orientation, and manufacturer compatibility list before installation.
- Connect fans and pumps using the documented pinout and control cable; remain within the motherboard or controller header's electrical limits.
- Check fan direction, cooler contact, tubing or cable clearance, and temperature response at first startup.
- Do not open sealed liquid-cooling assemblies or continue operation after suspected leaks, abnormal pump noise, or loss of cooling.
Model-specific notes
Check radiator length, thickness, tube reach, motherboard VRM/heatsink clearance, and case mounting position before installation. Route tubing without kinks, connect the chosen control harness as documented, and stop using the system if liquid leakage or pump failure is suspected.
