الإعداد والتثبيت
Follow these steps for proper installation of your liquid cooler. Refer to your motherboard manual for specific header locations.
1. تجهيز اللوحة الأم
Depending on your CPU socket (Intel or AMD), select the appropriate mounting hardware from the kit. For Intel sockets, install the backplate behind the motherboard and secure the standoffs. For AMD sockets, utilize the existing retention brackets on the motherboard.
2. Installing the Water Block
- Apply a small amount of the provided thermal grease to the center of your CPU's Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS).
- Attach the correct retention bracket to the water block.
- Carefully place the water block onto the CPU, aligning the mounting holes with the standoffs (Intel) or retention clips (AMD).
- Secure the water block using the thumb screws or spring screws provided, tightening them in a diagonal pattern until snug. Do not overtighten.

3. تركيب المبرد والمراوح
- Determine the optimal mounting location for the 240mm radiator within your PC case (e.g., top, front, or rear).
- Secure the radiator to the case using the appropriate screws. Ensure proper airflow direction for the fans (intake or exhaust).
- The fans come with rubber pads to reduce vibration and noise.

4. توصيل الكابلات
- Connect the 4-pin PWM cables from the fans to the motherboard's CPU_FAN or a dedicated fan header. Use the included 3-to-1 PWM splitter if connecting multiple fans to a single header.
- Connect the 3-pin Addressable RGB (ARGB) cables from the fans and water block to the included ARGB controller or directly to a compatible 5V ARGB header on your motherboard.
- If using the included ARGB controller, connect its SATA power connector to your power supply.

عملية
التحكم في إضاءة ARGB
The Permafrost PF240W-ARGB V2 features integrated addressable RGB lighting on both the water block and fans. You can control the lighting in two ways:
- مزامنة اللوحة الأم: If your motherboard has a compatible 5V ARGB header, connect the cooler's ARGB cables directly to it. You can then control the lighting effects using your motherboard's RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync).
- وحدة تحكم ARGB المرفقة: If your motherboard lacks a 5V ARGB header, use the included ARGB controller. This controller offers 10 lighting modes and allows you to adjust brightness and color changing speeds via its buttons. Ensure the controller is powered via a SATA connector from your power supply.

التحكم في المروحة
The 120mm PWM fans can be controlled via your motherboard's fan control software or BIOS settings. This allows you to adjust fan speeds based on CPU temperature, optimizing for either quiet operation or maximum cooling performance.
صيانة
Regular maintenance helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of your liquid cooler:
- تنظيف الغبار: Periodically clean the radiator fins and fan blades to prevent dust buildup, which can impede airflow and cooling efficiency. Use compressed air or a soft brush.
- التحقق من الاتصالات: Ensure all power and signal cables (PWM, ARGB) are securely connected to the motherboard and power supply.
- فحص الأنابيب: Occasionally check the liquid tubing for any signs of kinks, leaks, or damage.
استكشاف الأخطاء وإصلاحها
If you encounter issues with your liquid cooler, consider the following common solutions:
- لا يوجد كهرباء/المراوح لا تدور: Verify that the 4-pin PWM cables are correctly connected to the motherboard and that the pump's power cable (if separate) is connected to a SATA power connector.
- لا يوجد إضاءة RGB: Check that the 3-pin ARGB cables are properly connected to either the motherboard's 5V ARGB header or the included ARGB controller. Ensure the ARGB controller is receiving SATA power.
- درجات حرارة وحدة المعالجة المركزية العالية: Confirm that the water block is securely mounted to the CPU and that thermal paste was applied correctly. Ensure fans are spinning and oriented for proper airflow. Check BIOS settings for fan speed curves.
- ضوضاء غير عادية: Inspect fans for any obstructions. Ensure the pump is running smoothly.
