2.3.3 Installing the optional fan Install the optional fan only if you are using a passive cooler or a water cooler. Installing the optional fan with an active CPU cooler will interfere with the airflow and destabilize the system. 1. Position the fan above the pipe and heatsink assembly. 2. Fit the grooved edge to the heatsink. 3. Carefully push down the fan until it snugly fits the heatsink, then connect the fan cables. 4. The above photo shows the fans installed on the motherboard. • Plug the optional fan cables to any of the OPT FAN1~5 connectors on the motherboard. • Make sure the optional fan is installed correctly to prevent damage to the fan and motherboard components.
