Fusion Thermo is an exclusive ROG heatsink that provides air-cooling and water cooling 

elements, generating cooler ventilation for your motherboard. 
Fusion Thermo contains 100% copper water channel with electro-plated nickel barbs for 

cooling purpose. It also has an integrated heatpipe wrapped in air-cooling fins that absorbs 

heat and helps dissipate it throughout the system.
With Fusion Thermo, you have a hybrid air and water cooling system for an optimal cooling 

performance.

•   The Fusion Thermo’s nickel barbs’ outer diameter measure 3/8 inch (10mm). We 

recommend that you install a 3/8 inch ID tubing, and lock both ends with the bundled 

clamps that came with the water cooling kit.

• 

We recommend that you route the water cooling kit from the CPU water block to the 

Fusion Thermo zone.

•   We recommend that you separate the VGA water cooling system and the CPU/VRM 

water cooling system for an optimal cooling result.

• 

Ensure to keep the chassis ventilation airflow in one direction.

• 

Refer to the technical documentation of your water cooling kit for assembly 

instructions.
