Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the H150i Elite is designed to be user-friendly, utilizing a tool-free mounting bracket that snaps into place for most major Intel and AMD motherboard sockets.
- Ensure your PC case has a mounting position for a 360mm radiator (usually top or front panel).
- Attach the backplate and mounting standoffs according to your specific motherboard socket.
- Secure the pump head onto the CPU using the pre-applied thermal compound.
- Connect the pump's USB header to an internal USB 2.0 port on your motherboard to enable iCUE software control.
To maintain optimal performance, periodically dust the radiator and fan blades using compressed air to ensure maximum airflow. Avoid using liquid cleaners on the radiator fins as this may cause oxidation.
