1. Ensure the thermal paste is applied to the CPU. If not pre-applied, apply a small pea-sized amount to the center of the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
2. Align the cooler's mounting pins with the corresponding holes on the motherboard around the CPU socket.
3. Gently press down on each corner of the cooler until the push-pins click into place, securing the cooler to the motherboard. Ensure all four pins are firmly seated.
4. Connect the 4-pin PWM fan cable from the cooler to the 'CPU_FAN' header on your motherboard.
5. If you wish to utilize the ARGB lighting, connect the ARGB cable from the cooler to a compatible 3-pin 5V ARGB header on your motherboard. Refer to your motherboard manual for header locations.
6. Agħlaq il-kaxxa tal-kompjuter tiegħek u erġa' qabbad il-kejbil tal-enerġija.

7. Operazzjoni

Once installed, the GAMDIAS Boreas E1L 010 operates automatically:

• Kontroll tal-fann: The PWM fan speed is automatically regulated by your motherboard based on CPU temperature, ensuring optimal cooling performance and noise levels. You can typically adjust fan curves in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings.
• Dawl ARGB: If connected to an ARGB header, the lighting can be controlled and synchronized using your motherboard's dedicated RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, ASRock Polychrome Sync).

8. Manutenzjoni

Manutenzjoni regolari tgħin biex tiżgura prestazzjoni ottimali u lonġevità tas-CPU cooler tiegħek:

• Tneħħija tat-Trab: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months), power off your computer and use compressed air to gently blow dust out of the heatsink fins and fan blades. Hold the fan blades to prevent them from spinning excessively during cleaning.
• Pejst Termali: The thermal paste typically lasts for several years. If you notice a significant increase in CPU temperatures, consider reapplying fresh thermal paste after carefully cleaning the old paste from the CPU and cooler base.

9 Issolvi l-problemi

If you encounter issues with your GAMDIAS Boreas E1L 010 CPU AIR Cooler, refer to the following:

• Il-Fann Mhux Idur:
  • Ensure the 4-pin PWM fan cable is securely connected to the 'CPU_FAN' header on the motherboard.
  • Check BIOS/UEFI settings to ensure the CPU fan header is enabled and configured correctly.
• Temperaturi Għolja tas-CPU:
