- Scharfe Kanten: Be aware of sharp edges on computer cases and cooler components during installation.
- Belüftung: Ensure adequate airflow within your computer case for optimal cooling performance.
- Kompatibilität: Verify compatibility with your CPU socket and computer case before installation.
4. Einrichtung und Installation
The XPG Levante X 360 is designed for hassle-free installation. Follow these steps carefully for proper setup.
4.1 Bereiten Sie Ihr System vor
- Schalten Sie Ihren Computer aus und ziehen Sie alle Kabel ab.
- Öffnen Sie das Computergehäuse, um Zugang zum Motherboard und zum CPU-Bereich zu erhalten.
- Entfernen Sie den vorhandenen CPU-Kühler. Reinigen Sie die CPU-Oberfläche gründlich, um alte Wärmeleitpaste zu entfernen.
4.2 Installieren Sie die Montageteile
Select the appropriate mounting bracket for your CPU socket (Intel or AMD). The cooler supports LGA 1700, 1200, 115X, 2066, 2011-3, 2011 for Intel, and AM5, AM4, TR4 for AMD.
- Attach the correct backplate to the rear of your motherboard (for Intel sockets). AMD AM4/AM5 typically uses the stock backplate.
- Secure the standoffs to the motherboard through the CPU cooler mounting holes.
- Attach the chosen CPU bracket to the pump head.

4.3 Kühler und Lüfter montieren
Determine the optimal mounting location for the 360mm radiator within your case (e.g., front, top).
- If not pre-attached, mount the three 120mm ARGB fans to the radiator using the provided fan screws. Ensure correct airflow direction (intake or exhaust) based on your case's ventilation strategy.
- Secure the radiator assembly to your chosen mounting location in the PC case using the longer radiator screws.
4.4 Install the Pump Head
Carefully place the pump head onto the CPU, aligning the mounting holes with the standoffs.
- If thermal paste is not pre-applied, apply a small pea-sized amount to the center of the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
- Place the pump head onto the CPU, ensuring even contact.
- Tighten the thumbscrews or nuts in a diagonal pattern until snug. Do not overtighten.
4.5 Kabel anschließen
Connect the pump and fan cables to your motherboard or ARGB controller.
- Schließen Sie das 3- oder 4-polige Stromkabel der Pumpe an den CPU_FAN- oder AIO_PUMP-Anschluss des Motherboards an.
- Connect the 4-pin PWM fan cables from the three 120mm fans to available fan headers on your motherboard or to a fan hub/controller.
- Connect the ARGB cables from the fans and pump head to an ARGB header on your motherboard (5V 3-pin) or to the included ARGB controller.

5. Bedienungsanleitung
Once installed, the XPG Levante X 360 operates automatically to cool your CPU.
- Erstes Einschalten: After installation, power on your computer. The pump and fans should start operating. Check for any unusual noises or leaks.
- Lüfter- und Pumpensteuerung: The 4-pin PWM fans and pump allow for speed control via your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or dedicated software. Adjust fan curves to balance cooling performance and noise levels.
- ARGB-Beleuchtung: The Addressable RGB (ARGB) lighting on the fans and pump head can be controlled via your motherboard's ARGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync) or through the included ARGB controller.

6. Wartung
Regelmäßige Wartung trägt dazu bei, die optimale Leistung und Langlebigkeit Ihres Flüssigkeitskühlers zu gewährleisten.
- Staubentfernung: Reinigen Sie die Kühlrippen und Lüfterflügel des Kühlers regelmäßig mit Druckluft oder einer weichen Bürste von Staub. Zu viel Staub kann den Luftstrom behindern und die Kühlleistung verringern.
- Schläuche prüfen: Occasionally check the tubing for any signs of kinks, cracks, or leaks.
- Lüfterbetrieb: Ensure all fans are spinning freely and quietly. Replace any fans that become excessively noisy or stop functioning.
- Pumpenbetrieb: Listen for any unusual noises from the pump. A properly functioning pump should operate quietly.
7. Fehlerbehebung
If you encounter issues with your XPG Levante X 360, refer to the following common problems and solutions.
| Problem | Mögliche Ursache | Lösung |
|---|---|---|
| CPU-Überhitzung | Poor thermal paste application, pump not running, fans not spinning, insufficient mounting pressure. | Reapply thermal paste, check pump and fan connections, ensure pump head is securely mounted. Verify fan direction. |
| Lüfter drehen sich nicht | Loose fan cable connection, incorrect fan header, faulty fan. | Check fan cable connections to motherboard/controller. Ensure correct fan headers are used. Test fans individually if possible. |
| Pumpe läuft nicht | Loose pump power cable, incorrect pump header, faulty pump. | Verify pump power cable is securely connected to the CPU_FAN or AIO_PUMP header. Check BIOS settings for pump control. |
| ARGB-Beleuchtung funktioniert nicht | Loose ARGB cable connection, incorrect ARGB header (5V vs 12V), software issue. | Ensure ARGB cables are connected to a 5V 3-pin ARGB header. Check motherboard ARGB software. Verify connections to the ARGB controller. |
| Übermäßiger Lärm | Fan speed too high, pump noise, air bubbles in the loop. | Adjust fan curves in BIOS/software. Orient radiator to ensure pump is not the highest point to minimize air bubbles. |
