  3. Use the dual-sided tape to secure the AM4 backplate onto the backside of the motherboard.
    • Make sure that the holes on the backplate are properly aligned with the holes on your motherboard.

 

You will also need to remove the Intel LGA 1200 bracket around the XC7 RGB water block and install the AMD AM4 mounting bracket.

  1. Remove the TIM protective cover from the underside of the XC7 RGB water block.
  2. Rotate the bracket slightly clockwise until it stops.

Installing the XC7 RGB

Once you have installed both the AMD AM4 backplate onto your motherboard and the AMD AM4 mounting bracket onto your XC7 RGB water block, you can now install the cooler onto your motherboard.

  1. Place the water block on the AMD AM4 backplate.

  2. Tighten the screws of the XC7 RGB to secure it onto the backplate.
  3. Use the included RGB adapter cable to connect the XC7 RGB to a CORSAIR lighting controller, another Hydro X series component, or a motherboard RGB header.

Once you have finished installing the XC7 RGB, you can use iCUE to customize the RGB lighting on your cooler.
