User manual ZALMAN TNN 500AF TOTALLY NO NOISE COMPUTER CASE

[. . . ] 7) Lower the caster stops to immobilize the unit before using the system. 8) If this unit is to be transported a long distance, place it in the original packing box or a custom made hard case. 9) Do not drop or expose this unit to shock while it is in transit. 10) Store and use out of the reach of children. [. . . ] If the VGA card does not install normally due to physical incompatibility with the case, stop installation and replace with a Zalman-recommended VGA card listed on the following website. If such Northbridge is used, the Rear-mount Thermal Blocks MUST be installed. 2) Zalman Tech does not recommend using a motherboard with a fan on the Northbridge Cooler. If the fan is removed, the Rear-mount Thermal Blocks MUST be installed. 3) If the CPU has a higher Thermal Design Power (TDP) rating than an Intel Prescott or an AMD Athlon64 3500+, the Heatpipe Northbridge Cooler and a Rear-mount Thermal Block MUST be installed to cool the Northbridge. 4) To use CPUs with a 100W or higher TDP rating, Rear-mount Thermal Blocks MUST be installed (one for each FET) on the backside of the motherboard in-line with each FET. 5) If interference occurs between components or any problems appear, visit Zalman's website for a list of recommended motherboards, and replace before installation. (www. zalman. co. kr/product/TNN500AF. html) 6) The Rear-mount Thermal Blocks are proprietary components of Zalman's TNN series cases. Do not use with other cases! TNN 500AF Determine the points that correspond to the location of the FETs and Northbridge chipset on the back side of the motherboard. Clean the surface of the point where the block will be attached. Peel off the Film from the Thermal Pad on both ends of the block. Firmly attach the blocks on the determined points. NOTES : 1) To prevent short circuiting the motherboard, avoid soldered points, and any exposed wiring or circuitry when installing the Rear-mount Thermal Blocks. 2) Thermal Pads lose adhesiveness after it has been used once. Try to attach it properly on the first attempt. 3) Do not touch the Thermal Pad with your hands. TNN 500AF Install the motherboard using the bolts (PWH M3x5). NOTES 1) To prevent short-circuiting the motherboard, nipples that are not required for motherboard installation must be removed first. 2) Fix the motherboard to the TNN using all of the motherboard's mounting holes. 3) Be careful to not let the Rear-mount Thermal Blocks fall off from the back of the motherboard. TNN 500AF 4) Installing the Heatpipe Northbridge Cooler NOTES 1) The Heatpipe Northbridge Cooler can be installed only when the Northbridge is located in the appropriate area as shown in the diagram. 2) If the Northbridge chipset is located in the inappropriate area, it should be cooled with a Rear-mount Thermal Blocks(Refer to page 22). If the CPU s Thermal Design Power rating is lower than an AMD Opteron 3500+ or Intel Prescott, it is not necessary to install a Rearmount Thermal Block for the Northbridge, for the Heatpipe Northbridge Cooler is sufficient. Check what type of Stock Northbridge Heatsink is on the motherboard and determine the method of Northbridge Block installation. Notes on Installation of the Adhesive Type 1. The Thermal Tape must be adhered to the bottom of the Northbridge Block. Remove the film from the Thermal Tape before adhering the Northbridge Block to the Stock Northbridge Heatsink. TNN 500AF Determine the installation point of the Northbridge Case Block and the Northbridge Heatpipe. The Position of the Northbridge Case Block can be adjusted horizontally as well as vertically. The position of the Northbridge Case Block can be adjusted horizontally as well as vertically. Assemble and install the Northbridge Cooler as shown in the Diagram. TNN 500AF 5) Installing the Heatpipe CPU Cooler Refer to the diagram below to check the appropriate layout of the CPU Heatpipes for each general location of the CPU. NOTES 1) If the CPU Heatpipes interfere with certain components, turn the Heatpipes upside down or adjust the CPU Case Block Base A vertically and try installing again.
