Persediaan dan Pemasangan

Follow these steps to install your Thermaltake Gravity i2 CPU Cooler:

1. Sediakan Papan Induk: Ensure your motherboard is compatible with the supported Intel LGA sockets (1200/1156/1155/1150/1151). If replacing an existing cooler, carefully remove it and clean any old thermal paste from the CPU surface using isopropyl alcohol.
2. Pasang Backplate: Position the provided backplate on the rear side of your motherboard, aligning the holes with the CPU socket mounting points. This cooler utilizes a backplate for a more secure mount than traditional push-pin designs.
3. Sapukan Pes Terma: The Gravity i2 cooler comes with pre-applied thermal paste. If you prefer to use your own or if the pre-applied paste is damaged, apply a small, pea-sized amount of thermal paste to the center of your CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
4. Mount the Cooler: Carefully place the CPU cooler onto the CPU, aligning the mounting screws with the holes on the motherboard. Gently press down and tighten the screws in a diagonal pattern (e.g., top-left, bottom-right, top-right, bottom-left) until snug. Do not overtighten.
5. Connect the Fan Cable: Locate the 3-pin fan header on your motherboard (usually labeled 'CPU_FAN') and connect the cooler's fan cable to it.

Arahan Operasi

Once installed, the Thermaltake Gravity i2 CPU Cooler operates automatically, regulating fan speed based on CPU temperature. Ensure your system's BIOS/UEFI settings for the CPU fan are set to a standard or automatic profile for optimal performance and noise control.

• The 3-pin connector provides constant power to the fan.
• The fan speed is rated at a maximum of 2500 RPM.
• The cooler is designed to maintain CPU temperatures within safe operating limits for processors up to 95W TDP.

Penyelenggaraan

Penyelenggaraan tetap membantu memastikan prestasi optimum dan jangka hayat penyejuk CPU anda:

• Pembersihan Habuk: Periodically (every 3-6 months, or as needed), use compressed air to gently clean dust from the heatsink fins and fan blades. Ensure the fan is not spinning rapidly during cleaning to prevent damage to the bearings.
• Tampal Terma: The thermal paste typically lasts for several years. If you notice a significant increase in CPU temperatures, consider reapplying fresh thermal paste. This involves carefully removing the cooler, cleaning both the CPU and cooler base, and applying new thermal paste.
• Pemeriksaan Kipas: Check the fan for any obstructions or unusual noises. If the fan becomes excessively noisy or stops spinning, it may need replacement.

Menyelesaikan masalah

If you encounter issues with your CPU cooler, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Suhu CPU Tinggi:
  • Pastikan penyejuk dipasang dengan kukuh dan bersentuhan dengan baik dengan CPU.
  • Verify that thermal paste was applied correctly and is not dried out.
  • Check for excessive dust buildup on the heatsink fins and fan.
  • Confirm that the fan is spinning.
  • Pastikan aliran udara yang mencukupi dalam bekas PC anda.
• Kipas Tidak Berpusing:
  • Check if the 3-pin fan cable is securely connected to the 'CPU_FAN' header on the motherboard.
  • Inspect the fan cable for any damage.
  • Verify that the 'CPU_FAN' header is enabled in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings.
• Bunyi Kipas Berlebihan:
  • Ensure no cables or obstructions are hitting the fan blades.
  • Clean any dust from the fan blades.
  • If the noise persists and is a grinding or rattling sound, the fan bearings may be worn, and the fan may need replacement.
