Installation:

     Now, here comes the fun part, the installation.  Swiftech usually includes a full color glossy manual, however, in the rush to get the kits out to review, I only got a Xerox copy.  They have assured me that the full glossy manual is coming.  In the meantime, I will make my own full-color installation guide, just for you.

Step 1:  Find the barbs, and screw them into the radiator.  Be sure to include the O-rings, as they are necessary to getting a nice seal.  Get the barbs finger tight.  The use of a 9/16" deep socket will come in handy.  Don't use a wrench on them or you will shear the barbs off.

Step 2: Use the included screws and standoffs to install the backplate of the Radbox to your case. 

Step 3:  Attach the fans, fan grills, and Radbox to the radiator.  Then attach the Radbox to the previously assembled mounting bracket.

Step 4:  Attach the neoprene hoses to all the barbs.  Make sure the clamps are already on the hose before you slip the hose on.  Obviously, there are four barbs to attach to, above is the inlet to the water block.

Step 5:  Using some needle-nose pliers, cinch the clamps down as far as they will go.  Here is what it should look like on the block, before clamping it down.

Here is what it looks like clamped down on the radiator side.  

Step 6:  Unscrew the cap off of the top with a large standard screwdriver and fill up the fluid.  The fluid is "Hydrix" and mixes at a rate of 2 ounces per liter.  The whole system uses a little less than half a liter.  Once you have it filled up, connect the pump to your power supply, and disconnect everything else from power. Use a wire or a PSU tester to jump start the power supply and get the pump flowing.  Keep adding fluid as the air is bled out of the system.  It will froth up at first, though it should clear up in 30 minutes or so.  Once it is full, seal it up and let it run overnight while occasionally checking for leaks. 

Step 7: Apply thermal grease, and attach the backplate.  This may require motherboard removal. 

Step 8:  Using the four screw mounts, screw the waterblock through the motherboard and into the backplate.  Plug everything in, and let 'er rip!

     Here is the finished product on a Danger Den Torture Rack case.  In most ATX cases, you would point the barbs inward and run the tubing through the PCI bracket, however, because of the layout of the Danger Den case, this was not possible.  It will suffice for testing, however.
