Swapping the retention plates
This set contains the necessary plates to adapt the block, and it also includes a suitable set of mounting material. First remove the four screws from the base part of the block and lift the base part off. The acrylic version has no set screws to undo, so the old retention plates pull straight out of the water block housing.
Slide the new plates into the recesses of the housing. A gasket that came off during disassembly goes back into its groove, aligned exactly with it. Then put the base part on the housing and refit the countersunk head screws from the first step, by hand only and with no excessive force.
What you need to convert it
The kit is for an acrylic glass cuplex kryos NEXT you already own. Mounting the converted block on the motherboard follows the block's own installation steps. Other mounting parts are in our mounting hardware section, and complete blocks under Intel CPU blocks.
In the box
- Two stainless steel mounting plates with spring cups
