(1) Board
(2) Finned Heatsinks
(2) Thick purple thermal pads
Thermal Pads/Finned Heatsinks go on this portion of the board

Unscrew the screws under the heatsinks

Peel off the film on the Thick purple thermal pad (Front and Back), stick one under each heatsink - *
Be sure to poke holes where the screws should go*

Screw in the heatsinks to the board

Wipe all of the thermal compound off the chips (if there is any)
Wipe all of the thermal compound off the heatsink (if there is any)
Smear (Don't Dab) the Antec Nano Diamond Thermal Compound on the chips. I've been told less is more but to full cover them.
Since the H80i's mounting kit simply doesn't work with these boards you will have to do some weird stuff unless you want to buy correct standoffs (I Found that buying just the nuts was easier)
I Labeled the following image to make it easy (This is the mounting kit that comes with the H80i)
A goes under the board just as it is
D (The Standoffs) screw into
A on top of the board (Longer Side)
B goes on top of the cooler first (To create spacing to get a tight fit
C goes on top of
B on the cooler
Use the #8-32 Hex Nuts to attach the cooler to
D (The Standoffs)

Once you are done it should look something like this:

Screw the Fan that came with the H80i onto the Radiator with the screws (
E) located in the mounting kit
Now to prepare your PSU
You only need the following cables:
2 x 6 Pin PCI-E - (Plugs into the Board)
1 x 24-pin ATX cable (Paperclip trick to turn it on -
http://www.seasonic.ru/media/uploads/jump-start-3.jpg)
1x Sata Power Cable (to power the pump)
Once you have the PSU setup, plug your PCI-E's into the board (Make sure your PSU is off guys!)
![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FDgKfp3r.png&t=665&c=8dEnZ2N2n5lFhQ)
Plug your the cord from the Cooler into the Sata Power Cable and into the board (Sata is under the board in
C) (into the board in
B)
Plug your Fan on the radiator to the board on any of the open places (I put mine in
A)
![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FyajyMQl.png&t=665&c=QBk1wCjtPncGig)
Now plug one of your Port USB A Female Slot Plate Adapter (5-Pin) into the board
![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FqEGen8z.jpg&t=665&c=iNaY_iJ-XTex2g)
Plug your USB 2.0 A Male to A Male Cable into the USB A Female and into your computer (host)

Download the Latest CGMiner -
http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/Install WinUSB if needed -
http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/zadig/Start it up and it should run!
I highly recommend you have a large fan blowing on the board to keep it cool else it WILL throttle if you try to OC it. I use one similar to this
THISYou also should have it somewhat in the air so that the bottom side of the board can be cooled as well
I also recommend using Linux with CGMiner as it has been crashing with Windows somewhat
To OC simply make a .bat file inside your CGMiner with the following conditions (Thank you MrTeal)
cgminer.exe --hfa-fan 100 --hfa-hash-clock 720
