EK-Supremacy Classic RGB

CPU WATER BLOCK

This product is intended for installation only by expert users. Please

consult with a qualiﬁed technician for installation. Improper installation

may result in damage to your equipment. EK Water Blocks assumes no

liability whatsoever, expressed or implied, for the use of these products,

nor their installation. The following instructions are subject to change

without notice. Please visit our web site at www.ekwb.com for updates.

Before installation of this product please read important notice, disclosure

and warranty conditions printed on the back of the box.

Before you start using this product please follow these basic guidelines:

Please carefully read the manual before beginning with the

installation process!

Please remove your graphics card from the computer to assure

safest mounting process in order to prevent any possible damages

to your GPU and/or graphics card circuit board (PCB).

The EK Fittings require only a small amount of force to screw

them ﬁrmly in place since the liquid seal is ensured by the rubber

O-ring gaskets.

The use of corrosion inhibiting coolants is always recommended

for liquid cooling systems, and mandatory for nickel plated

water blocks!

Do not use pure distilled water! For best results EK recommends the

use of EK-CryoFuel coolants!

Make sure to thoroughly bleed air out of your water block, or you will

not reach optimal performance!

INSTALLING THE WATER BLOCK

LGA20X X SOCKET MOTHERBOARDS

STEP 1

Prepare the foil bag with mounting mechanism, which is enclosed

with the CPU water block delivery.

Install four (4) speciﬁc LGA-20XX M3 thumb screws into four M3

threaded stubs on the LGA-20XX socket integrated latch mechanism

(ILM). The screws are to be installed using no tools (i.e. pliers).

It is recommended to remove the motherboard from the

PC chassis before proceeding with installation of the CPU

water block because of the space constraint limitations of

various computer cases.

STEP 2

Cleaning the CPU: Wipe the CPU’s contact surface (by using non–

abrasive cloth or Q-tip, as shown on sample photo).

Applying thermal compound: EK recommends blob or line method

of applying the enclosed thermal com-pound to the CPU heat

spreader (IHS) - see sample photo on right.

The quantity of about two rice grains is just about right.

There is no need to cover the whole IHS. Applying too

much thermal grease will have negative impact on the

cooling performance!

STEP 3

Align the water block over the mounting screws on the LGA-20XX

motherboard with pre-installed CPU.

Before proceeding with the installation It is mandatory

to remove the protective foil from the backside of the

water block.

Place an enclosed compression spring and thumb nut over each M3

thumb screw. Start fastening two thumb nuts at a time, preferably in cross

pattern and do not tighten them fully until all of them are partially screwed

in. Then - using your ﬁngers only - screw in all four thumb nuts until you

reach the end of the thread.

STEP 4

Tighten the ﬁtting barbs in clockwise direction until the gasket underneath

is compressed.

The installation of the CPU water block is now complete.

With EK-Supremacy Classic RGB series water blocks it

is mandatory to use the port that is nearest to the center

of the water block as INLET port. Mixing the ports may

result in less than ideal thermal performance of the

water block.

LGA115x SOCKET MOTHERBOARDS

STEP 1

If already installed, please remove the motherboard from your

computer and place it on an even surface with front facing down.

STEP 2

Preparing backplate rubber gasket

The enclosed rubber gasket is essential part of the backplate and

mounting system and must be used every time you install this water

block on your motherboard.

STEP 3

IInstall backplate rubber gasket and place metal backplate for Intel®

LGA-115x socket to the back of your motherboard RIBBED SIDE

UP! (facing away from the motherboard) Align the holes on the

motherboard with holes on rubber gasket and backplate.

Make sure to orientate the rubber gasket to ﬁt past the

CPU socket ILM backplate. On certain ITX form factor

motherboards the rubber gas-ket may need to be trimmed

using household scissors.

Carefully rotate motherboard assembly with front side facing up

with one hand while holding the backplate and rubber in place with

the other hand.

STEP 4

Install four (4) M3 thumb screws onto your motherboard. It is

mandatory to put 0.7mm plastic washer underneath each of the

M3 thumb screws. Tighten the screws to the metal backplate until

you reach the end of the thread. Using tools (such as pliers) is not

recommended.

Continue installation by following the instructions on page

Removing of the original plastic hold-down clamps:

Using Philips-head screwdriver remove the four UNC 6-32 screws

securing the original plastic hold-down clamps around the socket as

shown on the sketch. KEEP the original AMD® backplate and remove

the hold-down clamps and store them away. See sketch for further

part identiﬁcation.

with the CPU water block delivery.

Install four (4) M3 thumb screws onto your motherboard. It is man-

datory to put plastic AM4 standoff underneath each of the M3 thumb

screws. The screws are to be installed using no tools (i.e. pliers).

CONNECTING THE RGB LED STRIP

RGB LED Connector

CONNECTING THE RGB LED STRIP

STEP 1

Plug the 4-pin connector from Water block’s LED light to the RGB

HEADER on the motherboard. The LED will work if the pin layout on

the header is as follows: +12V G R B.

Please ensure that the arrow indicated on the connector

is plugged into the +12V line as indicated on your

motherboard.

Failure to do so, will damage your motherboard or LED strip.
