4. Persediaan dan Pemasangan

The installation process for the Thermalright FW 360 is designed to be straightforward. Each platform includes the corresponding mounting hardware.

4.1 Langkah Pemasangan Umum

  1. Sediakan Papan Induk anda: Install the appropriate backplate and standoffs for your CPU socket (AMD or Intel).
  2. Mount the Radiator: Secure the 360mm radiator to your PC case. The fans are pre-installed for convenience.
  3. Install the Pump/Cold Plate: Apply thermal paste to your CPU (if not pre-applied on the cold plate). Place the pump/cold plate assembly onto the CPU and secure it using the SS2 metal buckle system. This system ensures uniform contact pressure.
  4. Sambungkan Kabel:
    • Connect the pump's power cable to the designated header on your motherboard.
    • Connect the fan PWM cables to the CPU_FAN or other fan headers on your motherboard.
    • Connect the ARGB cables from the fans and pump to a 5V 3-pin ARGB header on your motherboard for lighting synchronization.
  5. Pengurusan Kabel: Use the provided water tube clips and other cable ties to manage the tubing and cables for a clean build and optimal airflow.

Penting: For detailed visual instructions, it is highly recommended to refer to the official installation video or the comprehensive manual provided with your product. Incorrect installation can lead to poor cooling performance or damage to components.

6. Penyelenggaraan

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

  • Pembersihan Habuk: Periodically clean the radiator fins and fan blades using compressed air to remove dust buildup. Dust can impede airflow and reduce cooling efficiency.
  • Periksa Tiub dan Sambungan: Occasionally check the liquid tubes and connections for any signs of leaks or damage. While the tubes are protected against liquid evaporation, regular inspection is recommended.
  • Pemeriksaan Kipas: Ensure fans are spinning freely and quietly. If a fan becomes noisy or stops spinning, it may need replacement.
  • Tampal Terma: If you ever remove the cold plate from the CPU, clean off the old thermal paste and apply a fresh layer before reinstallation.

7. Penyelesaian masalah

If you encounter issues with your Thermalright FW 360 cooler, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

  • Suhu CPU Tinggi:
    • Ensure the pump is running and connected correctly.
    • Verify that the fans are spinning and connected to appropriate headers.
    • Check if the cold plate is making proper contact with the CPU. Reapply thermal paste if necessary.
    • Bersihkan sebarang habuk daripada sirip radiator.
  • Fans Not Spinning/ARGB Not Lighting Up:
    • Check all power and ARGB cable connections to the motherboard.
    • Ensure your motherboard's 5V 3-pin ARGB header is enabled in the BIOS/UEFI or through motherboard software.
    • Test fans individually if possible.
  • Bunyi Pam:
    • Ensure the pump is securely mounted and not vibrating against other components.
    • Check for air bubbles in the loop (though less common in AIOs, tilting the case can sometimes help).
  • Skrin LCD Tidak Dipaparkan:
    • Verify the display's power and data cables are securely connected.
