سيٽ اپ ۽ تنصيب
Follow these steps carefully for proper installation. Refer to your motherboard manual for specific details regarding CPU socket and fan headers.
1. سي پي يو ۽ مدر بورڊ تيار ڪريو
- Ensure your CPU is correctly seated in its socket.
- Clean the CPU surface with isopropyl alcohol to remove any old thermal paste.
- Apply a small pea-sized amount of the included thermal paste to the center of the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
2. ريڊيئيٽر ۽ پنکھا لڳايو
- Attach the two MasterFan MF120 Halo fans to the radiator using the provided screws. Ensure the fan airflow direction is appropriate for your case (typically exhausting air out of the case or drawing cool air in).
- Mount the radiator assembly to an available 240mm fan mount in your PC case (e.g., top, front). Secure it with the appropriate screws.

3. Install Pump/Cold Plate
Select the appropriate mounting hardware for your CPU socket type (Intel or AMD).
For Intel Sockets (LGA 1200/115X/2011/2066):
- Attach the correct Intel mounting brackets to the pump unit.
- Place the Intel backplate behind the motherboard, aligning the holes.
- Carefully place the pump/cold plate assembly onto the CPU, aligning the standoffs with the backplate.
- Secure the pump to the motherboard using the provided thumb screws, tightening them in a diagonal pattern until snug. Do not overtighten.
For AMD Sockets (AM4/AM3+/AM2+/FM2+/FM1):
- Remove the stock AMD retention brackets from the motherboard, but keep the original AMD backplate.
- Attach the correct AMD mounting brackets to the pump unit.
- Carefully place the pump/cold plate assembly onto the CPU, aligning the hooks on the pump bracket with the plastic clips on the AMD backplate.
- Secure the pump by tightening the screws on the pump bracket to the motherboard clips. Do not overtighten.

4. ڪيبل ڳنڍيو
- Connect the pump's 3-pin power cable to a CPU_FAN or AIO_PUMP header on your motherboard.
- Connect each fan's 4-pin PWM cable to a fan header on your motherboard (e.g., CPU_OPT or SYS_FAN).
- Connect the ARGB cables from the fans and pump to the included Gen 2 Addressable RGB Controller.
- Connect the Gen 2 ARGB Controller to a SATA power connector from your power supply and a USB 2.0 header on your motherboard for software control, or use the included 3-pin ARGB cable to connect it to a compatible motherboard ARGB header for motherboard software control.

Once installed, the MasterLiquid ML240 Illusion will automatically begin cooling your CPU upon system startup. The fans and pump will adjust their speed based on CPU temperature, managed by your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or dedicated software.
ARGB لائيٽنگ ڪنٽرول
- Using the Gen 2 ARGB Controller: The included controller allows for standalone control of lighting effects and colors. Refer to the controller's specific instructions for button functions and modes.
- Using Motherboard Software: If connected to a compatible motherboard ARGB header, you can synchronize and customize lighting effects using your motherboard manufacturer's RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync).
- Cooler Master MasterPlus+ Software: For advanced customization and synchronization with other Cooler Master ARGB products, download and install the MasterPlus+ software from the Cooler Master official website. This requires the ARGB controller to be connected via USB.
سار سنڀال
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your liquid cooler.
- مٽي صاف ڪرڻ: Periodically clean dust from the radiator fins and fan blades using compressed air. Ensure the fans are not spinning during cleaning to prevent damage.
- ٽيوبنگ ۽ ڪنيڪشن: Inspect the tubing and connections for any signs of wear, kinks, or leaks. Address any issues immediately.
- پمپ شور: A slight hum from the pump is normal. Excessive noise or gurgling may indicate air in the loop. Gently tilt your PC case while running to help dislodge air bubbles.
- حرارتي پيسٽ: Reapplying thermal paste is generally not required unless the cooler is removed from the CPU. If reinstallation occurs, clean off old paste and apply new thermal paste.
مشڪلاتون
| مسئلو | ممڪن سبب | حل |
|---|---|---|
| سي پي يو جو وڌيڪ گرم ٿيڻ | Improper thermal paste application; pump not running; fans not spinning; radiator blocked by dust. | Reapply thermal paste; check pump and fan connections to motherboard; ensure pump is powered; clean radiator fins. |
| No ARGB Lighting | ARGB cables disconnected; controller not powered; software issue. | Verify all ARGB connections; ensure SATA power is connected to the controller; check motherboard RGB software or MasterPlus+ settings. |
| Pump Noise/Gurgling | Air trapped in the loop. | Gently tilt the PC case while the system is running to help move air bubbles to the radiator. Ensure the pump is not the highest point in the loop. |
| پنکڙا نه ڦرڻ | Fan cables disconnected; fan header disabled in BIOS; faulty fan. | Check fan connections to motherboard; verify fan settings in BIOS/UEFI; test fans on a different header if possible. |
