Gid enstalasyon
Follow these steps carefully to install your Thermalright Assassin X 120R SE PLUS CPU Cooler. The installation process varies slightly depending on your CPU socket type (AMD or Intel).
1. Enstalasyon AMD AM4/AM5
- Prepare Mèr: For AMD AM4/AM5, remove the existing plastic brackets around the CPU socket. Keep the motherboard backplate in place.
- Enstale Standoffs: Place the four red plastic standoffs onto the motherboard's CPU cooler mounting holes.
- Enstale sipò metal yo: Position the two metal brackets over the plastic standoffs and secure them with the provided AM4 screws. Tighten them evenly.

2. Intel LGA1700/115X/1200/1851 Installation
- Prepare Backplate: Adjust the mounting hole position on the universal backplate to match your Intel socket (e.g., 115X or 1700).
- Enstale plak dèyè a: Place the adjusted backplate on the backside of your motherboard, aligning the holes with the CPU socket.
- Enstale Standoffs: From the front side of the motherboard, install the four blue Intel plastic standoffs into the backplate.
- Enstale sipò metal yo: Position the two metal brackets over the plastic standoffs and secure them with the provided Intel screws. Tighten them evenly.

3. Common Procedures (All Sockets)
- Aplike konpoze tèmik: Apply a small amount of thermal compound (pea-sized dot or line method) to the center of your CPU's IHS (Integrated Heat Spreader).
- Retire fich radyatè a: Ensure you remove the protective sticker from the heatsink's base before mounting.
- Mòn Radyatè Chalè: Carefully place the heatsink onto the CPU, aligning the mounting nuts with the screws on the installed brackets. Tighten both nuts evenly with a screwdriver until snug. Do not overtighten.
- Enstale fanatik yo: Attach the fan clips to the 120mm PWM fans. Then, clip the fans onto the heatsink, ensuring proper airflow direction (typically pushing air through the heatsink towards the rear of the case).
- Konekte Kab Vantilatè yo: Connect the 4-pin PWM power cables from the fans to the CPU_FAN header(s) on your motherboard.

Enstriksyon Operasyon
Once installed, the Thermalright Assassin X 120R SE PLUS CPU Cooler operates automatically. The PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) fans adjust their speed based on CPU temperature, providing efficient cooling while minimizing noise. Ensure your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings are configured to allow PWM control for the CPU fan header.
- Premye demaraj: After installation, power on your computer. Monitor CPU temperatures using system monitoring software to confirm proper cooler function.
- Anviwònman BIOS/UEFI yo: Access your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI to verify that the CPU fan is detected and operating in PWM mode. You can often customize fan curves here to suit your preference for noise and cooling performance.
- Airflow: Ensure that the fans are oriented correctly to draw cool air through the heatsink and exhaust warm air out of the case. The dual fan configuration (one intake, one exhaust reverse airflow fan) creates strong airflow.
Antretyen

- Retire pousyè: Periodically clean dust from the heatsink fins and fan blades using compressed air or a soft brush. Accumulation of dust can reduce cooling efficiency.
- Enspeksyon fanatik: Check the fans for any signs of wear, damage, or unusual noise. Ensure fan clips are securely attached.
- Pat tèmik: While not frequently required, if you remove the heatsink for any reason, it is recommended to clean off the old thermal paste from both the CPU and heatsink base and apply a fresh layer before reinstallation.
Depanaj
If you encounter issues with your CPU cooler, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Tanperati CPU ki wo:
- Verify that the heatsink is securely mounted and making good contact with the CPU.
- Check if thermal paste was applied correctly and evenly.
- Ensure fans are spinning and oriented for proper airflow.
- Clean any dust accumulation from the heatsink and fans.
- Check case airflow and fan configuration.
- Vantilatè yo pa vire:
- Ensure fan cables are securely connected to the CPU_FAN header(s) on the motherboard.
- Check BIOS/UEFI settings to ensure fan control is enabled and not set to a very low RPM.
- Test fans by connecting them to a different fan header if available.
- Bri fanatik dwòl:
- Inspect fan blades for any obstructions or damage.
- Ensure fan clips are properly seated and not vibrating against the heatsink.
- Check fan bearings for wear; consider replacing the fan if noise persists.
