  1. Attach the appropriate backplate to your motherboard if required by your CPU socket.
  2. Secure the standoffs to the backplate or motherboard.
  3. Apply thermal paste to the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
  4. Mount the pump head onto the CPU, aligning it with the standoffs, and secure it with the provided thumb screws or nuts.
  5. Install the radiator with the pre-installed fans into your PC case, typically at the top or front, ensuring proper airflow direction.
  6. Connect the pump's 3-pin or 4-pin connector to the CPU_FAN or AIO_PUMP header on your motherboard.
  7. Connect the fan's 4-pin PWM connectors to appropriate fan headers on your motherboard or a fan controller.
  8. Connect the ARGB cables from the pump and fans to a compatible 3-pin 5V ARGB header on your motherboard or an ARGB controller for lighting synchronization.
