4. Opstelling en installering

Follow these steps to install your Xigmatek Galaxy II Elite AY120 ARGB fans:

1. Berei jou stelsel voor: Skakel jou rekenaar af en ontkoppel dit van die kragtoevoer. Maak jou rekenaarkas oop.
2. Monteer die waaiers:
   • Identify the desired mounting locations for the 120mm fans within your PC case (e.g., front, top, rear).
   • Secure each fan to the case using the provided mounting screws. Ensure the fan's airflow direction is appropriate for your cooling setup (typically intake at the front/bottom, exhaust at the rear/top).
3. Connect Fans to Control Box:
   • Connect the 6-pin fan cables from each of the three AY120 ARGB fans to the corresponding ports on the ARGB Control Box.
   • Ensure connections are firm.
4. Connect Control Box to Power:
   • Connect the SATA power connector from your power supply unit (PSU) to the ARGB Control Box. This provides power to the fans and RGB lighting.
5. Connect Control Box to Motherboard (Optional ARGB Sync):
   • If your motherboard has a 5V 3-pin Addressable RGB (ARGB) header, you can connect the ARGB sync cable from the control box to this header. This allows you to control the fan lighting via your motherboard's RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync).
   • Note: Do not connect to a 12V 4-pin RGB header, as this will damage the fans.
6. Kabelbestuur: Plaas alle kabels netjies om behoorlike lugvloei en 'n skoon bouwerk te verseker.
7. Finale stappe: Close your computer case, reconnect the power, and power on your system.
