Installation
- STEP 1 -
- STEP 2 -
Picture of the VGA card and its parts
First insert the white plastic washer through the enclosed M2.5x7mm screw.

- STEP 3 -
- STEP 4 -
Insert the screw through the fixed hole from the back of the VGA card as shown on the picture circled in red.
Insert the black plastic washer through the M2.5x7 mm screw on the topside of the video card.

- STEP 5 -
- STEP 6 -
Slightly tighten the screw into the black metal retention mount's designated hole and refer to the picture as to which direction the protruding screw hole should point toward.
For most video cards, using the 2 short black metallic arm plates(25mm in length) should suffice unless the distance between the video card's fixed holes are greater than the short black metallic arm plates in length. If so, consider using the 2 long black metallic arm plates(33mm in length).

- STEP 7 -

Align the Black metal retention (see picture) mount to the center of the GPU (as shown in the picture), then slightly tighten the M2.5x4mm screws (as circled in red). After adjusting to make sure that the retention mount is aligned center to the GPU, tighten all screws.

- STEP 8 -

Apply a thin layer of the thermal paste evenly on the protruding square mount at the bottom of the heat sink as well as on the GPU itself.

- STEP 9 -

Put the heat sink on top of the VGA card, at the same time minding the protruding square mount at the bottom of the heat sink as you need to line up to fit through the square shaped opening on the black metallic retention mount. Use M3x5mm screws (see picture) to tighten and secure the heat sink on the black metallic retention mount

- STEP 10 -

There should be a gap (approx. between 2mm-6mm) between the top side of the VGA card and the heat sink. The distance is sufficient enough to prevent any short circuitry.
