The PWM function allows the fan speed to adjust automatically based on CPU temperature, optimizing for both cooling performance and noise levels. The ARGB lighting can be controlled via your motherboard's compatible software, allowing for customization of lighting effects and colors.
6. Mantemento
- Limpeza do po: Limpa periodicamente o po das aletas do radiador e das aspas do ventilador con aire comprimido. Asegúrate de que os ventiladores non xiren durante a limpeza.
- Inspeccionar tubos: Regularly check the water tubes for any signs of leaks, kinks, or damage.
- Monitor de rendemento: Use monitoring software to keep track of CPU temperatures and pump/fan speeds to ensure optimal performance.
- Pasta térmica: Reapply thermal paste if you ever need to remove and reinstall the waterblock.
7 Solución de problemas
- Temperaturas altas da CPU:
- Check if the waterblock is securely mounted to the CPU.
- Ensure thermal paste is correctly applied.
- Verify that the pump is running (check connections to CPU_OPT/AIO_PUMP header).
- Confirm fans are spinning and connected to the CPU_FAN header.
- Limpa calquera acumulación de po nas aletas do radiador.
- Os ventiladores non xiran/O ARGB non se ilumina:
- Check all fan and ARGB cable connections to the motherboard.
- Ensure the motherboard's ARGB header is enabled in BIOS/UEFI or controlled by appropriate software.
- Verify power supply connections.
- Ruído inusual:
- Check for loose fan screws or vibrations.
- Asegúrate de que ningún cable interfira coas aspas do ventilador.
- If pump noise is excessive, ensure it's properly mounted and not running dry (though this is rare for AIOs).
