Once installed and powered on, the Thermalright Aqua Elite 360 V3 will automatically begin cooling your CPU. The PWM function allows the fan speed to adjust automatically based on CPU temperature, optimizing for both cooling performance and noise levels. The ARGB lighting can be controlled via your motherboard's compatible software, allowing for customization of lighting effects and colors.
6. Mantenimiento
- Limpieza de polvo: Limpie periódicamente el polvo de las aletas del radiador y las aspas del ventilador con aire comprimido. Asegúrese de que los ventiladores no estén girando durante la limpieza.
- Inspeccionar los tubos: Regularly check the water tubes for any signs of leaks, kinks, or damage.
- Rendimiento del monitor: Use monitoring software to keep track of CPU temperatures and pump/fan speeds to ensure optimal performance.
- Pasta térmica: Reapply thermal paste if you ever need to remove and reinstall the waterblock.
7. Solución de problemas
- Altas temperaturas de la CPU:
- Check if the waterblock is securely mounted to the CPU.
- Asegúrese de que la pasta térmica esté aplicada correctamente.
- Verify that the pump is running (check connections to CPU_OPT/AIO_PUMP header).
- Confirm fans are spinning and connected to the CPU_FAN header.
- Limpie cualquier acumulación de polvo en las aletas del radiador.
- Los ventiladores no giran/ARGB no se enciende:
- Check all fan and ARGB cable connections to the motherboard.
- Ensure the motherboard's ARGB header is enabled in BIOS/UEFI or controlled by appropriate software.
- Verify power supply connections.
- Ruido inusual:
- Compruebe si hay tornillos del ventilador sueltos o vibraciones.
- Asegúrese de que ningún cable interfiera con las aspas del ventilador.
- If pump noise is excessive, ensure it's properly mounted and not running dry (though this is rare for AIOs).
