aigo AT360 360mm CPU Liquid Cooler Instruction Manual

1. Ngwaahịa gafereview

The aigo AT360 CPU Liquid Cooler is an All-In-One (AIO) liquid cooling system designed to efficiently dissipate heat from your CPU. It features a 360mm radiator, three 120mm PWM fans, and an ARGB pump head, providing both effective cooling and customizable lighting effects. The system is compatible with various Intel and AMD CPU sockets.

Key features include a micro-channel design for enhanced heat exchange and FDB bearing fans for quiet operation and extended lifespan.

3. Ntọala na nwụnye

This section provides step-by-step instructions for installing your aigo AT360 liquid cooler. Ensure your system is powered off and unplugged before proceeding. It is recommended to wear anti-static gloves.

3.1. Prepare the CPU and Motherboard

1. Remove any existing CPU cooler and clean off old thermal paste from the CPU surface using isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free cloth.
2. Identify your CPU socket type (Intel LGA or AMD AM series) to select the correct mounting hardware.

3.2. Install the Backplate

For Intel LGA 115x/1200/20xx and AMD AM4/AM3+/AM3 sockets, install the universal backplate behind the motherboard. Align the backplate holes with the motherboard mounting holes and secure it from the front with the appropriate standoffs.

3.3. Attach Mounting Brackets to Pump

Select the correct mounting brackets for your CPU socket. Attach these brackets to the pump head by sliding them into place until they click securely. Ensure they are firmly seated.

3.4. Install Fans to Radiator

Mount the three 120mm PWM ARGB fans to the radiator using the provided long screws. Ensure the fan airflow direction is correct for your case's cooling configuration (typically blowing air through the radiator and out of the case, or into the case for intake).

3.5. Mount Radiator to PC Case

Secure the radiator assembly to an available fan mounting location in your PC case (e.g., top, front, or rear). Use the shorter screws provided for this step. Ensure there is adequate clearance for the radiator and fans.

3.6. Install Pump/Cold Plate onto CPU

1. Apply a small, pea-sized amount of thermal paste to the center of your CPU's Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS).
2. Carefully place the pump head onto the CPU, aligning the mounting brackets with the standoffs installed in step 3.2.
3. Secure the pump head by tightening the four thumb screws in a diagonal pattern until snug. Do not overtighten.

3.7. Njikọ njikọ

1. Connect the 3-pin pump power cable to a dedicated AIO_PUMP or CPU_FAN header on your motherboard. Consult your motherboard manual for the correct header.
2. Connect each 4-pin PWM fan cable to an available fan header on your motherboard (e.g., CPU_FAN, SYS_FAN). You may use a fan splitter if necessary.
3. Connect the 3-pin ARGB cables from the fans and pump head to a 5V ARGB header on your motherboard (typically labeled ADD_HEADER or JRAINBOW). If your motherboard lacks an ARGB header, use the included ARGB controller (if applicable) and connect it to a SATA power connector from your PSU.
4. Ensure all cables are routed neatly and do not obstruct airflow or other components.

4. Ntuziaka ọrụ

4.1. Njikwa ọkụ ARGB

The aigo AT360 supports Addressable RGB (ARGB) synchronization. If connected to a compatible 5V ARGB header on your motherboard, you can control the lighting effects using your motherboard's RGB software (e.g., GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, MSI Mystic Light Sync, ASUS Aura Sync, AsRock Polychrome Sync). If using the included ARGB controller, refer to its specific instructions for cycling through lighting modes.

4.2. Njikwa ọsọ fan (PWM)

The 120mm fans are Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) controlled, allowing their speed to be adjusted based on CPU temperature. This can be configured through your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or dedicated fan control software. It is recommended to set a fan curve that balances cooling performance with noise levels.

• Mwepụ uzuzu: Periodically inspect the radiator fins and fan blades for dust accumulation. Use compressed air or a soft brush to gently remove dust. Excessive dust can impede airflow and reduce cooling efficiency.
• Nyocha USB: Ensure all power and ARGB cables remain securely connected and are not pinched or damaged.
• oyi: The aigo AT360 is a closed-loop AIO system and does not require coolant refills or maintenance. Do not attempt to open the cooler or modify the tubing.

6. Nchọpụta nsogbu

If you encounter issues with your aigo AT360 liquid cooler, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No Power/Fans Not Spinning:
  • Check all power connections, including the pump's 3-pin connector and fan PWM connectors to the motherboard.
  • Hụ na ihe na-enye ike (PSU) na-arụ ọrụ nke ọma.
  • Verify fan headers are enabled in BIOS/UEFI.
• Poor Cooling Performance/High CPU Temperatures:
  • Confirm the pump is running (you may feel a slight vibration or hear a faint hum).
  • Check that the pump cold plate is making full contact with the CPU IHS. Re-seat the pump if necessary, ensuring even pressure.
  • Verify thermal paste application. Reapply if it appears insufficient or uneven.
  • Ensure fans are spinning and oriented correctly for optimal airflow through the radiator.
  • Clean any dust buildup from the radiator fins.
• ARGB Lighting Not Working/Incorrect Colors:
  • Ensure the ARGB cables are securely connected to a 5V ARGB header on the motherboard or the included controller.
  • Verify that you are using a 5V ARGB header, not a 12V RGB header, as this can damage the LEDs.
  • Check your motherboard's RGB software settings or the ARGB controller for proper configuration.
  • Confirm the ARGB controller (if used) is receiving power (e.g., via SATA power).
