• The Fusion Thermo’s nickel barbs’ outer diameter measure 3/8 inch (10mm). We recommend that you install a 3/8 inch ID tubing, and lock both ends with the bundled clamps that came with the water cooling kit.

•We recommend that you route the water cooling kit from the CPU water block to the

Fusion Thermo zone.

•We recommend that you separate the VGA water cooling system and the CPU/VRM water cooling system for an optimal cooling result.

•Ensure to keep the chassis ventilation airflow in one direction.

•Refer to the technical documentation of your water cooling kit for assembly instructions.
