Instrukcja instalacji
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. Instalacja procesora AMD AM4/AM5
- Przygotuj płytę główną: For AMD AM4/AM5, remove the existing plastic brackets around the CPU socket. Keep the motherboard backplate in place.
- Montaż elementów dystansowych: Place the four red plastic standoffs onto the motherboard's CPU cooler mounting holes.
- Montaż metalowych wsporników: 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).
- Montaż płyty tylnej: Place the adjusted backplate on the backside of your motherboard, aligning the holes with the CPU socket.
- Montaż elementów dystansowych: From the front side of the motherboard, install the four blue Intel plastic standoffs into the backplate.
- Montaż metalowych wsporników: 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)
- Nałóż pastę termoprzewodzącą: Apply a small amount of thermal compound (pea-sized dot or line method) to the center of your CPU's IHS (Integrated Heat Spreader).
- Remove Heatsink Sticker: Ensure you remove the protective sticker from the heatsink's base before mounting.
- Montaż radiatora: 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.
- Zainstaluj wentylatory: 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).
- Podłącz kable wentylatora: Connect the 4-pin PWM power cables from the fans to the CPU_FAN header(s) on your motherboard.

Instrukcja obsługi
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.
- Początkowy rozruch: After installation, power on your computer. Monitor CPU temperatures using system monitoring software to confirm proper cooler function.
- Ustawienia BIOS/UEFI: 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.
- Przepływ powietrza: 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.
Konserwacja
Regularna konserwacja pomaga zapewnić optymalną wydajność i długą żywotność chłodzenia procesora.
- Usuwanie kurzu: Periodically clean dust from the heatsink fins and fan blades using compressed air or a soft brush. Accumulation of dust can reduce cooling efficiency.
- Kontrola wentylatora: Check the fans for any signs of wear, damage, or unusual noise. Ensure fan clips are securely attached.
- Pasta termoprzewodząca: 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.
Rozwiązywanie problemów
Jeśli masz problemy z chłodzeniem procesora, zapoznaj się z poniższymi typowymi krokami rozwiązywania problemów:
- Wysokie temperatury procesora:
- Verify that the heatsink is securely mounted and making good contact with the CPU.
- Sprawdź, czy pasta termoprzewodząca została nałożona prawidłowo i równomiernie.
- Ensure fans are spinning and oriented for proper airflow.
- Wyczyść radiator i wentylatory z nagromadzonego kurzu.
