5. Gwida għall-Installazzjoni
Before starting, ensure your system is powered off and unplugged. Refer to your motherboard manual for specific CPU socket details.
5.1 Prepare the CPU and Motherboard
- Naddaf il-wiċċ tas-CPU sewwa bl-alkoħol isopropil biex tneħħi kwalunkwe pejst termali qadim.
- Apply a small amount of the included TF7 thermal grease to the center of the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
5.2 Install Radiator and Fans
- Mount the radiator to an available fan mount in your PC case (e.g., top, front, or rear). Ensure proper airflow direction. The fans are pre-installed.
- Secure the radiator using the appropriate screws.
5.3 Install Pump/Cold Plate
The FW 240 uses the SS2 buckle system for secure mounting.
- For Intel Sockets (LGA1700, LGA115X, LGA1200, LGA2011, LGA2066):
a. Attach the correct Intel backplate (if required for your socket) to the rear of the motherboard.
b. Install the appropriate Intel mounting standoffs onto the motherboard.
c. Place the pump/cold plate onto the CPU, aligning the mounting holes.
d. Secure the pump/cold plate with the Intel mounting screws. - For AMD Sockets (AM5, AM4):
a. Ensure the original AMD backplate is in place on the motherboard.
b. Install the appropriate AMD mounting standoffs onto the motherboard.
c. Place the pump/cold plate onto the CPU, aligning the mounting holes.
d. Secure the pump/cold plate with the AMD mounting screws. - The pump head is magnetically rotatable. Adjust its orientation after installation to ensure the LCD display is upright and readable.
5.4 Qabbad il-Kejbils
- Connect the 4-pin PWM fan cables from the radiator fans to your motherboard's CPU_FAN or SYS_FAN headers.
- Connect the 4-pin PWM pump cable to your motherboard's AIO_PUMP or CPU_OPT header.
- Connect the 3-pin ARGB cable from the fans and pump to your motherboard's +5V ARGB header.
- Connect the USB cable from the pump head to an available internal USB 2.0 header on your motherboard. This powers the LCD screen and enables software control.
6. Operazzjoni

- Liquid Check: While AIO coolers are sealed, occasionally inspect the tubing and connections for any signs of leaks or damage.
- Pejst Termali: If you ever remove the cold plate from the CPU, clean off the old thermal paste and apply a fresh layer before reinstallation.
8 Issolvi l-problemi
- No Power to Fans/Pump/RGB:
- Check all 4-pin PWM and 3-pin ARGB cable connections to the motherboard.
- Ensure the motherboard headers are correctly configured in BIOS/UEFI. - Wiri LCD Mhux Jaħdem:
- Verify the internal USB 2.0 cable from the pump head is securely connected to the motherboard.
- Ensure the TRCC software is installed and running correctly.
- Check if the USB header is enabled in BIOS/UEFI. - Temperaturi Għolja tas-CPU:
- Confirm the cold plate is making proper contact with the CPU. Re-seat if necessary, ensuring even pressure.
- Check if thermal paste was applied correctly.
- Ensure fans are spinning and radiator fins are clear of dust.
- Verify pump is running (listen for a faint hum or check software monitoring). - Kwistjonijiet tad-Dawl RGB:
- Ensure the 3-pin ARGB cable is connected to a +5V ARGB header, not a +12V RGB header (which can damage the LEDs).
- Use the TRCC software or your motherboard's RGB software to control the lighting.
9. Għajnuniet għall-Utenti
- LCD Power: The LCD screen is powered via the internal USB 2.0 header connection to your motherboard. Ensure this connection is secure for the display to function.
- Personalizzazzjoni tas-softwer: Ħu bil-quddiemtage of the TRCC software to personalize your cooler's display. You can upload custom GIFs or images to match your system's theme or display crucial system stats.
- Pump Head Orientation: The magnetically rotatable pump head allows you to adjust the LCD's orientation without removing the cooler. This is useful if your installation requires the pump to be mounted in a specific way.
