2.8Installing the optional fans

Install the optional fan only if you are using a passive cooler or a water cooler. Installing the optional fan with an active CPU cooler can interfere with the airflow and destabilize the system.

1.Position the fan above the pipe and heatsink assembly.

2.Fit the fan to the grooved edge of the heatsink.

3.Carefully push down the fan until it snugly fits the heatsink, then connect the fan cable.
