• 2 x TL-C12C-X28-S V2 ARGB Fans
• Mounting hardware for Intel LGA 1851/1700/115X/1200 sockets
• Mounting hardware for AMD AM5/AM4 sockets
• Standard TF7 silicone thermal grease
• Klipy pro fanoušky
• Uživatelská příručka (tento dokument)

4. Nastavení a instalace

Před zahájením instalace se ujistěte, že je systém vypnutý a odpojený od sítě. Informace o konkrétní patici procesoru naleznete v manuálu k vaší základní desce.

4.1. Příprava základní desky

1. Identify your CPU socket type (Intel LGA or AMD AM).
2. Attach the appropriate backplate (if required for your socket) to the rear of your motherboard.
3. Install the correct standoffs and mounting brackets for your CPU socket onto the motherboard.

4.2. Apply Thermal Paste

1. Clean the surface of your CPU and the cooler's base with isopropyl alcohol.
2. Apply a small, pea-sized amount of the provided TF7 thermal grease to the center of your CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS). Do not spread it manually; the pressure from the cooler will distribute it evenly.

4.3. Install the Heatsink

1. Carefully place the heatsink onto the CPU, aligning the mounting holes on the cooler's base with the standoffs/brackets on the motherboard.
2. Secure the heatsink using the provided screws, tightening them in an alternating diagonal pattern until snug. Do not overtighten.

4.4. Install Fans and Connect Cables

1. Attach the two TL-C12C-X28-S V2 ARGB fans to the heatsink using the included fan clips. Ensure the airflow direction is correct (typically blowing through the heatsink towards the rear of the case).
2. Connect the 4-PIN PWM fan cables to the CPU_FAN headers on your motherboard. If your motherboard has multiple CPU fan headers, use the primary CPU_FAN header.
3. Connect the +5V 3-PIN ARGB lighting cables to the addressable RGB headers on your motherboard. Ensure correct polarity to avoid damage.
4. Connect the digital display's 9-pin connector to an available USB 2.0 header on your motherboard. This provides power and data for the display.

5. Návod k obsluze

5.1. Digital Display Monitoring

The Peerless Assassin 120 Digital features an integrated display that provides real-time monitoring of your CPU and GPU. Once connected to the motherboard's USB 2.0 header, the display will automatically show key metrics such as temperature and utilization percentage.

5.2. Software Control (TRCC)

For advanced control and customization of the digital display and ARGB lighting, download and install the Thermalright TRCC software. This software allows for simultaneous monitoring of CPU/GPU temperature and occupancy rate, and potentially customization of display elements.

• Nainstalujte software podle pokynů na obrazovce.
• Use the software interface to configure display settings, ARGB lighting effects, and monitor system performance.

6. Údržba

Pravidelná údržba zajišťuje optimální výkon a dlouhou životnost chladiče procesoru.

6.1. Cleaning the Fans and Heatsink

• Periodically (every 3-6 months, depending on environment) power off your PC and unplug it.
• Carefully remove the fans from the heatsink.
• Use compressed air to blow dust out of the heatsink fins and fan blades. Hold the fan blades gently to prevent them from spinning rapidly, which can damage the bearings.
• Wipe down the fan frames and heatsink with a soft, dry cloth.
• Reattach the fans securely.

6.2. Opětovné nanesení teplovodivé pasty

Thermal paste typically lasts for several years. However, if you notice a significant increase in CPU temperatures or if you remove the cooler for any reason, it is recommended to clean off the old thermal paste and apply new thermal paste.

• Carefully remove the cooler from the CPU.
• Use isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free cloth to thoroughly clean the old thermal paste from both the CPU IHS and the cooler's base.
• Apply new thermal paste as described in Section 4.2.
• Reinstall the cooler.

7. Řešení problémů

Zde jsou některé běžné problémy a jejich možná řešení:

7.1. High CPU/GPU Temperatures

• Zkontrolujte připojení ventilátoru: Ensure both 4-PIN PWM fan cables are securely connected to the motherboard's CPU_FAN headers.
• Ověřte provoz ventilátoru: Confirm that both fans are spinning when the PC is on.
• Teplovodní pasta: Ensure thermal paste was applied correctly and evenly. Reapply if necessary.
• Heatsink Mounting: Check that the heatsink is securely mounted and making good contact with the CPU.
• Průtok vzduchu do skříně: Ensure your PC case has adequate airflow with proper intake and exhaust fans.

7.2. Digital Display Not Working

• USB Header Connection: Verify the 9-pin USB 2.0 connector from the cooler is securely plugged into an available USB 2.0 header on your motherboard.
• Instalace softwaru: Ensure the Thermalright TRCC software is installed and running. Download from https://www.thermalright.com.cn/support/download/.
• Motherboard BIOS/UEFI: Check your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings to ensure USB headers are enabled.

7.3. ARGB Lighting Not Functioning or Incorrect

• ARGB Header Connection: Ensure the +5V 3-PIN ARGB cables are correctly connected to the motherboard's addressable RGB headers. Note that this is different from 12V 4-PIN RGB headers.
• Software základní desky: Use your motherboard's RGB control software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync) or the Thermalright TRCC software to manage lighting effects.
• Napájení: Ensure your power supply can adequately power all ARGB components.

8. Uživatelské tipy

• Přizpůsobení zobrazení: The TRCC software allows for customization of the digital display. Explore the software settings to change background colors, displayed metrics, or other visual elements to personalize your cooler's appearance.
• Orientace ventilátoru: For optimal cooling, ensure the fans are oriented to pull cool air through the front tower and push it through the rear tower, exhausting towards the back of your PC case.
• Volba RAM: Due to its dual-tower design, ensure your RAM modules are not excessively tall, especially if using all four RAM slots. The fans can be adjusted slightly for clearance if needed.
