it is recommended to carefully cover any excessively sharp areas (for
example, solder points) on your hardware with small pieces of foam
or electrical tape.
3rd-party liquid cooling products are not generally supported by
hardware manufacturers. Installing a Koolance liquid cooling product
is ultimately done at the user’s own risk.
The RAM-30 will cool one or two DIMM memory sticks.
When cooling two, the sticks must be in adjacent slots
because the cooler will not expand any wider.

The RAM-30 features width adjustment, which
allows adequate contact pressure for the memory
modules once installed.
Your computer memory may come with a heat

remove them. Most will still fi t within the cooler.
However, if the heat spreader uses clips (and can
be removed without damaging the memory), then
you may do so.
The mounting brackets on both ends of the RAM-30
cooler fi t below the hinged DIMM latches.
By design, the RAM-30 cooler
is not symmetrical. The top
hoses lean toward one side,
which should face away from the
opposite memory banks when
installed. This provides room for
additional memory sticks, or a
second RAM-30 liquid cooler.
Before installation, the cooler should be extended
to its maximum size. To do this, loosen both thumb
screws and slide apart the moveable outer plate.
The RAM-30’s mounting direction should face away from the
opposite memory banks.
With the RAM-30 cooler properly placed over
the memory, gently squeeze together the
outer plates.
Tighten both RAM-30 thumb screws to hold
the cooler and outer plates to the memory
banks.
