Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance. The EK-Exact Mount system simplifies the process, but careful attention to detail is required.

1. Prepare CPU and Motherboard: Ensure your Intel LGA 1700 CPU is securely seated in the motherboard socket. Clean the CPU's Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS) thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol to remove any residue.
2. Aiwatar da Thermal Manna: Apply a small amount (e.g., a pea-sized dot or a thin line) of the included Thermal Grizzly Hydronaut thermal grease to the center of the CPU's IHS. Do not spread it manually; the mounting pressure will distribute it evenly.
3. Install Backplate: Position the EK-Velocity2 Backplate on the rear side of the motherboard, aligning it with the CPU socket mounting holes.
4. Mount Water Block: Carefully place the EK-Quantum Velocity 2 water block onto the CPU, ensuring the mounting screws pass through the motherboard and align with the backplate. The patent-pending EK-Exact Mount system is designed for easy alignment.
5. Secure Water Block: Using the provided 2.5mm Allen (HEX) key, tighten the mounting screws in a diagonal pattern (e.g., top-left, bottom-right, top-right, bottom-left) until snug. Avoid overtightening to prevent damage to the motherboard or water block. The EK-Exact Mount system provides optimal mounting pressure.
6. Connect D-RGB Cable: Connect the 3-pin 5V digital LED header (Pinout: +5V | Digital | Blocked | Ground) of the D-RGB cable to the appropriate D-RGB header on your motherboard. This allows for extensive D-RGB lighting control via your motherboard's software.
7. Connect Liquid Cooling Loop: Connect your liquid cooling loop's inlet and outlet tubes to the G1/4 threaded ports on the water block. Ensure all fittings are securely tightened to prevent leaks.

The EK-Quantum Velocity 2 utilizes the OptiFlow cooling engine, specifically designed for Intel LGA 1700 processors. This engine, combined with precise coldplate geometry and mounting pressure, ensures efficient heat dissipation from the CPU die.

• Hydraulic Flow: The water block is engineered for low hydraulic flow restriction, making it suitable for systems with weaker water pumps or lower pump speeds, contributing to quieter operation.
• D-RGB Lighting: Once connected to a compatible 5V D-RGB header on your motherboard, the integrated D-RGB lighting can be controlled via popular D-RGB software from major motherboard manufacturers. This allows for customization of lighting effects to match your system's aesthetic.
• EK-Matrix7 Compatibility: The EK-Quantum Velocity 2 adheres to the EK-Matrix7 standard, which ensures product alignment and simplifies loop planning by standardizing product heights and port distances in 7mm increments.

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your water cooling system.

• Sauyawar Sanyaya: It is recommended to replace the coolant in your loop every 6-12 months, depending on the coolant type and system usage, to prevent buildup and maintain performance.
• Block Cleaning: Over time, some coolant types may cause residue buildup within the water block's micro-fins. If performance degrades, the water block can be disassembled and cleaned using appropriate non-abrasive cleaning solutions. Refer to EKWB's official cleaning guides for detailed instructions.
• Duban gani: Periodically inspect the water block and fittings for any signs of leaks, corrosion, or discoloration. Address any issues promptly.

If you encounter issues with your EK-Quantum Velocity 2 water block, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Mummunan Ayyukan sanyaya:
  • Check thermal paste application: Ensure an even spread and sufficient contact between the water block and CPU.
  • Verify mounting pressure: Confirm the water block is securely tightened with even pressure.
  • Inspect coolant flow: Ensure the pump is operating correctly and there are no blockages in the loop.
  • Check for air bubbles: Large air bubbles trapped in the water block can impede flow and cooling. Tilt your system to help dislodge them.
• Hasken D-RGB Ba Ya Aiki:
  • Verify cable connection: Ensure the 3-pin 5V D-RGB cable is correctly connected to the motherboard header.
  • Check motherboard software: Confirm the D-RGB lighting is enabled and configured correctly in your motherboard's RGB control software.
  • Test with another D-RGB device: If possible, test the water block's D-RGB with another known working D-RGB controller or device to rule out a faulty header.
• Leaks:
  • Immediately power off your system if a leak is detected.
  • Inspect all fittings: Ensure all G1/4 fittings are properly tightened and O-rings are seated correctly.
  • Check for cracks: Although rare, inspect the plexi top for any hairline cracks, especially if overtightened during installation.
