5. Drift
5.1. Slå på
After all components are installed and cables connected, replace the side panels. Connect your monitor, keyboard, mouse, and power cable. Press the Power Button on the front I/O panel to start your system.
5.2. ARGB-viftekontroll
De forhåndsinstallerte ARGB-viftene kan styres på to måter:
- Dedicated LED Button: Use the LED button on the front I/O panel to cycle through 25 built-in lighting modes.
- Hovedkortsynkronisering: Connect the ARGB cables to a compatible 5V 3-pin ARGB header on your motherboard. Use your motherboard's RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync) to synchronize and customize lighting effects.
6. Vedlikehold
Regelmessig vedlikehold bidrar til å sikre optimal ytelse og levetid for PC-komponentene dine.
- Rengjøring av støvfilter: Periodically remove and clean the dust filters (located on the top, front, and bottom) to maintain optimal airflow. Use compressed air or a soft brush.
- Utvendig rengjøring: Tørk av de utvendige overflatene med en myk, damp klut. Unngå skurende rengjøringsmidler.
- Innvendig rengjøring: With the system powered off and unplugged, use compressed air to remove dust from internal components and fans.
7. Feilsøking
- Systemet slår seg ikke på:
- Sørg for at strømkabelen er ordentlig koblet til strømforsyningen og stikkontakten.
- Sjekk at strømforsyningsbryteren er i «PÅ»-posisjon.
- Verify all front panel connectors (especially the Power Switch) are correctly attached to the motherboard.
- Confirm the 24-pin ATX and 8-pin CPU power cables are securely connected to the motherboard.
- Fans Not Spinning / RGB Not Lighting Up:
- Check that all fan power cables are securely connected to the fan hub or motherboard headers.
- Ensure ARGB cables are properly connected to the fan hub or a compatible 5V 3-pin ARGB header on the motherboard.
- If using motherboard synchronization, verify that the RGB software is installed and configured correctly.
- Try cycling through modes using the dedicated LED button on the front panel.
- Ingen skjermutgang:
- Ensure your monitor cable is connected to the graphics card (GPU) and not the motherboard's integrated graphics port (unless you are using integrated graphics).
- Sett grafikkortet tilbake i PCIe-sporet.
- Check that the GPU power cables are securely connected.
