Подешавање и инсталација
Proper installation is crucial for optimal cooling performance. Please follow these steps carefully. Refer to the included physical manual for detailed diagrams.
- Припремите свој систем:
- Искључите рачунар и искључите све каблове.
- Open your PC case to access the motherboard and CPU area.
- Remove any existing CPU cooler. Clean the CPU surface thoroughly to remove old thermal paste.
- Install the Backplate (if required):
- Identify the correct backplate for your CPU socket (AMD AM5/AM4 or Intel LGA 1851/1700).
- Position the backplate behind the motherboard, aligning the holes with the CPU mounting holes.
- Attach Mounting Stand-offs:
- Screw the appropriate stand-offs into the backplate or directly into the motherboard's CPU socket holes, depending on your platform. Ensure they are finger-tight.

- Нанесите термалну пасту:
- Apply a small, pea-sized amount of the included CryoFuze thermal paste to the center of your CPU's Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS). Do not spread it manually; the pressure from the pump will distribute it evenly.

- Mount the Pump/Cold Plate:
- Carefully align the pump's cold plate with the CPU and the mounting holes.
- Place the pump onto the stand-offs and secure it with the provided thumb screws or nuts. Tighten in a diagonal pattern until snug, ensuring even pressure. Avoid overtightening.

- Инсталирајте радијатор и вентилаторе:
- Mount the 120mm fan(s) to the radiator using the long screws. Ensure the fan airflow direction is appropriate for your case (typically intake or exhaust).
- Secure the radiator to an available 120mm fan mount in your PC case (e.g., rear, top, or front).

- Повежите каблове:
- Connect the pump's power cable to an available CPU_FAN or AIO_PUMP header on your motherboard.
- Connect the fan's 4-pin PWM cable to a CPU_FAN or SYS_FAN header on your motherboard.
- If applicable, connect any RGB/lighting cables to the appropriate motherboard header or controller.
- Коначна провера:
- Double-check all connections and ensure no cables are obstructing fan blades.
- If you installed the cooler with the case lying down, stand the PC upright and allow 15-20 minutes for the cooling fluid to settle before powering on.
Упутство за употребу
Once installed, the MasterLiquid 120L Core operates automatically, controlled by your motherboard's fan and pump headers.
- Почетно укључивање: Upon first boot, the pump and fan will begin operating. Monitor your CPU temperatures using motherboard software or third-party utilities to ensure proper function.
- Контрола брзине вентилатора: The SickleFlow 120 fan utilizes PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) for dynamic speed control. This allows your motherboard to adjust fan speed (650-1750 RPM) based on CPU temperature, optimizing for either quiet operation or maximum cooling performance.
- Рад пумпе: The Gen S Dual Chamber Pump operates continuously to circulate coolant. Ensure the pump is always receiving power.
- Нивои буке: The cooler is designed for quiet operation, with a typical noise level of 12 dB. Fan noise will increase with higher RPMs under load.

Одржавање
The MasterLiquid 120L Core is a closed-loop system and requires minimal maintenance.
- Чишћење прашине: Периодично чистите прашину са ребара хладњака и лопатица вентилатора помоћу компримованог ваздуха или меке четке. Прекомерна прашина може ометати проток ваздуха и смањити ефикасност хлађења.
- Термална паста: The included CryoFuze thermal paste is long-lasting. Reapplication is generally not needed unless the cooler is removed from the CPU. If reinstallation occurs, clean both surfaces and apply new thermal paste.
- Провера течности: As a closed-loop system, the coolant does not need to be refilled or replaced.
